We stayed at the Owls Nest, Ponderosa cabin in May, 2014 with another couple and consider it to be a great find! It is a free standing cabin which was clean, well furnish with full kitchen, private bed room with 2 separate bathrooms on the lower level and a private loft bedroom with two beds. The living room area was large and comfortable and the deck on the back was equipped with charcoal grill and picnic table.||||The location was excellent, on highway 41 about 1.5 miles outside Yosemite's main south entrance, and our hosts, Barbara and Robert, we're very nice and helpful, having lived in the area most of their lives.
