What can I say about John's Homestead ranch? After moving our stay several times due to the pandemic, we finally got to stay at the ranch only a few miles from Groveland. We loved it!
The land was vast, the cabin was stunning and fully equipped and the beauty of the landscape with views across Yosemite. We loved hiking to cocktail ridge and were even lucky to see deer roam free on our last day.
It was beyond all expectations and we loved meeting Bob and hearing his stories. Would highly recommend and hopefully we'll be back soon.




Cozy, clean, peaceful and beautiful location
Always great staying here
Love staying here has become our favorite place to getaway, highly recommended!
The cabin was absolutely wonderful! It was so charming and had everything we needed. We could feel the care that was put into the place. Making coffee and going out to say hi to the horses was my highlight! John was a very kind, communicative, and attentive host. We would definitely recommend this place!!
Had a great time at The Cabin at the Old Homestead! Was pleasantly surprised by the amount of fans and even AC unit when we arrived, it was 100+ outside. Great little kitchen and big bed, along with a wonderful shower for after our hikes. The outdoor hang out was perfect in the morning before it got too hot. John was super quick and helpful with all my questions. Highly recommend walking up the ridge to watch sunset, was blown away by the view and tranquility out there. Great midway point on way to Yosemite.



This was an amazing place to stay on our way back to the Bay Area from Yosemite. It exceeded all of our expectations. My daughter loved feeding the horses and seeing cows, deer, chickens and turkeys wandering around. We can’t wait for our next stay here.
