Chalet vacation rentals in Madera County

So glad we came to stay here! Absolutely felt at home. I kept telling my wife if we could I’d buy this place right now because I loved it so much. And everything that came with the house was a HUGE plus. All the boat/water toys were a lifesaver! The host was very responsive and helpful. I asked if they had an EZ-Up and she said no but placed in order for one so I’d have one during our stay! Definitely will be returning. 10/10

We had a truly wonderful stay at this beautiful home! It was an unforgettable experience, especially for my mom, who saw wild deer for the first time. The house had everything we needed to enjoy a unique and special family time, making our stay comfortable and stress-free. I will definitely recommend this place to others. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!

This property was better than expected. Isaac is uh the man. Very responsive. We got Stuck in a snow storm and he was very responsive. Everything was as advertised. Family had a great time. Just a few things that don’t take away from a 5 star. Place is a little dated. TV needs to be updated. It worked but too dull. Could not watch television… not his fault. Snow storm messed with the satellite. Kitchen light has to be brighter. Snow plowing guy did not do a good job. Elderly parents had a rough time getting in. Basic things but what an experience. We will definitely be back! Thanks Isaac

Superhost doesn’t begin to describe Isaac. Not only was he quick to respond with an abundance of helpful information, but my family encountered some scheduling issues on our long journey and Isaac was able to make quick accommodations for us. He is incredibly knowledgeable of the area. The property was clean, cozy, and filled with character. The property is also a great value compared to local inns and provides all the comforts of home. All this and the location is arguably the best feature. The proximity to Yosemite’s grand wonders cannot be beaten. My family was able to catch sunrise at the tunnel entrance and come back for breakfast all before most people can make it into the park.

Loved our stay! We travelled with our pup and 10 month old son. We already want to go back! Location: 15 min from town and Yosemite Park Entrance The Resort: BEAUTIFUL! Few casual restaurants, a bar, fine dining, gas station, and market are all on sight! All the staff we spoke with were extremely friendly and helpful as well. Room: Exactly as described! The kitchen was fully equipped and we cooked our entire stay. The hotel provided a baby gate and a pack and play for our son which was great! Warning: The walls are PAPER THIN. You can hear a lot next door and almost everything from downstairs. I could hear my husband tapping his fingers on the kitchen counter from the bathroom downstairs lol. We got a noise complaint called on us at 8pm and we were just getting our sons last giggles out before bed bed. The floors creek really loud so from downstairs it sounds like a bunch of popping. We didn’t mind these things at all but something to consider if you’re a light sleeper.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay with the family. The space was very clean and spacious. There was plenty of room and my family and will definitely plan another trip.

What a beautiful and charming cabin! We felt right at home. The cabin is really big and had plenty of beds for our group of 9. There were extra. It was nice the cabin was dog friendly. The kids had a great time in the game room & China Peak was only a five minute drive away. We enjoyed the snow and walking around the lake. Only con's was there was no dishwasher detergent and only a very limited supply of toilet paper. We almost ran out towards the end of our 3 night stay and the little market down the street didn't have any for purchase. Driving to Shaver for TP would have been a bummer!!

Gorgeous home with amazing view. Everything was perfect, beds were comfortable, house was clean, and very spacious home. The view of the snow covered mountain almost seemed unreal!

We had a great stay. The place was spotless, kid-friendly, and close to Yosemite’s main attractions. All the amenities were as described, including a well-stocked kitchen. Scott, our host, was friendly and responsive. Highly recommend the place.

Very attentive, at one point all we needed was a lighter and she had someone drop it off within the hour without us even asking, it was very kind and efficient. The house was beautiful, slightly smaller than we expected but beautiful. Only thing I will say is that we were under the impression that the listing has a BBQ Grill and unfortunately that was not something that was available or warned about, we had to find out from asking host. The airbnb was phenomenal nonetheless. Very happy with the stay! The kitchen was OUTSTANDING also! So much kitchenware to work with.

Well worth every penny! Cloud’s Rest was a true home away from home and exactly what we were looking for to bring our family together in Yosemite for Thanksgiving (and my husband’s 60th). The location, just 15 minutes from Bridalveil trail and the valley floor, can’t be beat (without traffic-we did experience quite a bit of traffic on Black Friday, where it took closer to 30). But the real showstopper was the “cabin” itself - Grand Lodge would be a better description! Equal to the task of combining luxury, privacy and comfort with the beauty, grandeur and rugged wilderness of Yosemite. As a frequent Airbnb traveler, I was genuinely impressed by the high level of hospitality and amenities provided… I certainly didn’t expect such a well stocked kitchen that we could have prepared the full Thanksgiving feast without bringing a thing. My only hesitation in this glowing recommendation is that it’ll become so popular, we won’t be able to secure a reservation for our nest visit! 😅 👍🏻👍🏻?

This place was great for a small family, the whole place is very thoughtfully designed and clean. The addition of having detergent, some coffee, bar soap, and such basics always makes such a difference and you can tell it's a property cared for with attentiveness to guests needs--expected and unexpected. There's a beautiful waterfall path right next door that's a little known gem - Chilnualna Falls (I recommend the short foot path for a steep but short hike to the lower falls). I would say the views are very wooded, not really the mountains you see at other Yosemite properties, but also it's very convenient location to the south gate park entrance and to Mariposa Grove of the Giant Sequoias (10-ish minute drive). The beds were comfortable and there were a lot of blankets so you could be as warm as you choose and the space is lovely with a nice indoor little fireplace that is raised on a platform, so not as dangerous to kids! Saving for future. The games were also great for the kids!
