Yosemite Foothills Waterside Retreat
Great base camp for Yosemite
Denise is a very nice host. The property is great, plenty of room to spread out and enjoy. Its definitely a little rough around the edges and needs a bit of work, but you can tell that the owners are trying to get it there. If you want to rough it but still have the comfort of being near your car and having a power outlet nearby, you'll enjoy it. We would go back.
Great for groups and for people that dont mind roughing it a bit. Not overly private, but exactly as advertised. Cell reception is spotty and Denise can be a a bit hard to contact.

Yosemite Foothills Waterside Retreat
Denise was very hospitable! I was at the site with my boyfriend and our dog. We were able to use the pond and had fun paddle boarding. Location is secluded but also Mariposa is nearby so we were able to check out the downtown.

Comfortable stay
Awesome spot Denise set up! There was a microwave, electric grill, toilet, and water for us. Felt very welcome. Would absolutely recommend

Yosemite Foothills Waterside Retreat
Great site, Bad communication
It was a great site to park our RV and relax! It’s an open, secluded spot by the water. A firepit with seating was provided which was nice, but I suggest bringing or collecting your own firewood instead of buying the “firewood bundle” which seemed to just be logs and twigs collected from the site itself. The host provided some essentials like bug spray, candles, seating, games, etc. which was a nice gesture.
Although the site was great, the host was not responsive after we arrived. We had a few questions about the RV hookup and site, and tried messaging and calling. We only got a handwritten note the following day. We had to resort to using our generator both nights.
It’s a great spot on the way to Yosemite, but if communication with the host is important to you I would look elsewhere.

Clutch Spot on the way to Yosemite
Denise is super helpful. We just really needed a place to park but she made sure we had everything we needed
