Come enjoy the mountains at the South Fork Willow Creek only 3 miles away from Bass Lake and a short drive from the Yosemite Southgate..This is your base to explore the wonders of California nature.

With such a lovely outdoor space right at home, you may not wander far. Adults can enjoy the Sierra Range views from the comfy seating area on the newly stained and renovated decks, great for stargazing, while the kids play cornhole, ladder toss, frisbee toss, soccer, or bocce ball in the large backyard. Sighting wildlife such as deer, turkey, quail, peacock, woodpeckers, and dragonflies will delight the whole group. Pick mulberries from the on-site tree when they're in season, and sprinkle them on your morning pancakes for a special treat.
Inside, you'll find a space just as relaxing. There are 2 separate living spaces, plus another dining/living room that offers lots of room to spread out. Entertainment options include board games, a piano in the dining area, a two-in-one Pool table and Ping-Pong table, and two-streaming capable TVs. A field guide in the home makes for a fun scavenger hunt for kids to wander the property and identify local flora and fauna. A dedicated workspace in the primary bedroom assists with any remote work. The six-burner stove in the full, well-equipped kitchen is ideal for feeding a crowd, and there's room for everyone at the adjacent dining table. There are split air-conditioning units in the downstairs rooms and central air-conditioning upstairs to keep everyone cool when the weather is warm.
End the day with an easy cookout on the gas grill, and spend the evening back outside on the deck, stargazing or watching for shooting stars. The perfect family vacation awaits - all that's left to do is book it.

Right from the guest book
"Amazing place to stay. The hike down the waterfall is a little steep but extremely doable. The water is icy cold. But once you’re inside the water you get used to it. The place is clean and there’s a huge patio where you can stargaze at night. Even saw a few shooting stars. When I went outside to drink some coffee I swear a I saw an eagle perch at a tree nearby. Honestly a great experience. Would recommend getting there while."
1. Main door has a Schlage encode deadbolt. You will be provided with the key-code as part of check-in email. In the unlikely event that you get locked out due to Schlage device running out of battery, there is a key placed in lockbox to the right of main door. Please contact SPPM for the lockbox code. The door does automatically lock, so keep the key-code handy. When inside the house, turn the knob to horizontal position. That locks the door for anyone trying from outside.
2. All TVs have inbuilt Roku. You will have to login into your own account on Netflix, HBO or other apps
3. Heating and Air conditioning: All downstairs rooms have Daikin mini-split AC units. These are air conditioning and heating units. To operate, use remote on the wall/nightstands near the units. Simply press the yellow button to turn unit ON. Use ‘Mode’ button to select heating, cooling or auto. Adjust temperature to your desired level. Upstairs AC is slightly different. If you are laying on the master bed, point remote towards the top right of the wall by the door. You will hear a beep and see a green light on the panel. This turns on AC for upstairs bedroom, hallway and bathroom.
4. Outdoor games like ladder toss, frisbee toss, soccer and bocce ball are kept in the laundry room racks. Please put them back once done.
5. Mulberry picking: Every year around the peak of Perseids meteor shower, mulberries ripen on the tree next to back-gate. Feel free to pluck the ripe ones. Ripe mulberries will detach just by a gentle tuck on the fruit. If you must use force, it means the fruit hasn’t ripened yet. Please do not pluck those, else you will just end up with very red juicy hands and a sour tasting fruit.
6. There are beach towels in the laundry room. Please do not take bath towels to the creek.
7. The sliding glass doors have a locking mechanism. Please ensure to lock the sliding doors.
8. PGE has issued warnings for the area that at anytime for any reason, they may decide (beyond our control) to turn the power off if there's any anticipation of fire. We will not be responsible for amenities not available due to power outage.

Right from our guest book: "The cabin location is beautiful and the kids had a wonderful time with ample space in the backyard for them to enjoy. The view in the morning was breath taking and the highlight of our trip was enjoying our morning breakfast with this view. "
