Overview
Pull into the wide paved driveway, step past the brick front steps, and the day slows down. Inside, a vaulted white plank ceiling with exposed beams rises over leather sofas and a floor-to-ceiling river rock wall, and big windows frame oaks and pines on every side. Set on two serene wooded acres in Oakhurst, Whispering Pines puts Bass Lake less than 10 minutes away and Yosemite National Park about 30 minutes from the door. Mornings start with coffee by the fire pit, afternoons belong to the lake or the trail, and evenings end with arcade battles, ping pong and movie night with fresh popcorn.

Bedroom 1 features a king bed on a dark leather platform frame, plus a futon sofa for an extra sleeper. A sliding glass door opens straight onto the deck, so the primary guests can step out with morning coffee before anyone else is up. Bedroom 2 pairs a queen bed with a twin bed, both dressed in rustic patchwork quilts with a bear motif. A large bright window, wildlife sketches and a ceiling fan make it a cozy fit for a parent with a child or a pair of friends. Bedroom 3 is the kids' favorite, with a black metal bunk bed in plaid pine tree quilts, a separate twin bed under a large curtained window, and a metal moose head keeping watch on the wall. Bathrooms The first full bathroom has a tiled vanity, industrial cage lighting and a walk-in shower behind a glass door. The second full bathroom offers a shower and tub combo with a glass door and handheld showerhead, ideal for rinsing off little ones after a lake day, along with floating wood shelves and crossed oar decor. Living Areas The living room is made for gathering, with brown leather sofas, a red leather recliner and a large wall-mounted 65-inch smart TV under the vaulted beamed ceiling. A floor-to-ceiling river rock wall anchors the room, and buffalo check curtains frame wooded views. Fire up the theater popcorn machine, dim the lights and settle in for movie night. Kitchen & Dining The open kitchen centers on a tiled island with a gas cooktop that looks out over the dining table, living room and stone wall, so the cook never misses the conversation. Oak cabinetry, a stainless side-by-side refrigerator with water dispenser, a wall oven, built-in microwave and dishwasher handle big family meals, while a Keurig and a Cuisinart coffee maker keep the early risers happy. Three stools line the breakfast bar, and a large dining table with high-back chairs sits beside the river rock wall. Adults dine on black matte stone dinnerware, and kids have their own plastic set. Game Room This is where the trip turns competitive. A Legends Ultimate stand-up arcade cabinet loaded with more than 300 classic games glows under a neon game sign, a foosball table sits beside big windows overlooking the deck, and ping pong and air hockey keep the tournament going. Out on the covered patio, a second ping pong table and an arcade basketball game sit beneath brick columns open to a green, wooded hillside, with cushioned chairs for the spectators. Deck & Fire Pit A long wraparound deck runs along the house under string lights, lined with wooden Adirondack chairs and tall oaks and pines beyond the railing. Gather around the propane fire pit table to sip morning coffee or watch the sunset with a glass of wine, while the Weber gas grill handles dinner. Beyond the deck, a grassy yard shaded by mature oaks, landscaped garden paths, stone steps and mossy boulders invite a slow wander.

Very clean and spacious. On property Arcade games, family board games, billard games to keep everyone entertained. Excellent bedroom set up for multiple families to share. Best central travel spot to Basslake Oakhurst shopping Mariposa city history and Yosemite.
The outdoor play areas like table tennis and basketball were covered in dust and not maintained properly. Kitchen vessels provided were too small and insufficient for a group of 8 people. We also noticed spiders in the bathroom. The outdoor trash can was not animal-proof, and animals scattered trash outside during the night, which we had to clean ourselves. Overall, the amenities and maintenance did not match the cost of the property
