The Homestead Bed and Breakfast Cottages

A very private and romantic Yosemite lodging getaway on 160 acres surrounded by nature and nurtured by owners that care about the quality of your time at The Homestead.

Larry and Cindy built The Homestead to provide a peaceful and relaxing getaway, so that you can return to your daily life rejuvenated and refreshed. We welcome guests from all walks of life that are seeking accommodations where privacy and quiet are treasured. We believe in always being "available" to assist you in any way, but to never be "in your way".

Our guests are honeymooners, those celebrating special occasions, and outdoor adventurers who love hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, bird watching. An appreciation of our blend of a mountain setting with luxury accommodations brings our guests back quite often. Most use their Homestead Cottage as home base for visiting Yosemite. From our location you have easy access to two entrances to Yosemite.

The Homestead is just 10 minutes from the mountain village of Oakhurst which is host to quaint shops, art galleries, the latest movies, local plays, restaurants and supermarkets. We are close to Yosemite, Sierra National Forest, Bass Lake, mountain biking, golfing, horseback riding, hiking, fishing and local wineries.
