Description

Chardonnay Chalet

Nestled in California’s Central Sierra Nevada Mountains, less than 20 miles from Yosemite National Park, Bass Lake is a refreshingly tranquil getaway offering endless opportunities to be one with nature and escape from the demands of everyday life. Flanked by fragrant pine trees, the glistening warm waters of Bass Lake hover around 75 degrees in the summertime, creating a natural hub for swimming, boating, and fishing.

When you’re looking to enjoy activities at Bass Lake or mountain adventures in the Sierra Nevadas, Chardonnay Chalet is the perfect place to call home. Conveniently located in Willow Cove, this cozy yet spacious four-bedroom home is the ideal spot for a weekend getaway with family and friends. With 2370 square feet of living space, it boasts two living areas, two master bedrooms, three fireplaces, six TVs, and a beautiful multi-level deck.

Chardonnay Chalet’s dreamy modern interior pairs rustic wood accents with sophisticated furnishings. The main level’s open floor plan allows guests to transition seamlessly between dining and relaxing. An expansive reclaimed wood bench table can seat the entire family for dinner, whereas the quartz breakfast bar is great for midday, pick-me-up snacks. Kick your feet up in the living room as you watch your favorite shows and listen to the fireplace’s flickering flames. If you can’t agree on what to watch, don’t fret, there is a second living room located on the lower level with two wall-mounted flatscreen TVs. Smell the crisp mountain air as you relax outside on the deck. It’s the perfect all-day hangout spot for morning coffees, afternoon games, and BBQ dinners.

When you need to rest up before a big hike or fishing trip, a good night’s sleep is guaranteed at Chardonnay Chalet. Both master bedrooms evoke a cozy cabin feel and feature king-sized beds, warm fireplaces, and flatscreen TVs. The expansive master ensuites sport a beautiful herringbone pattern floor and a luxurious walk-in shower. The guest rooms have a king or queen bed, and there is a third full bathroom, as well as a half bath.

Chardonnay Chalet is a great jumping-off point for hiking-filled Yosemite adventures. At Bass Lake, you can rent a boat or kayak to glide through the waters or fish for trout, bass, and Kokanee salmon. Then, top your vacation off by sampling artisan wines as you tour the wineries of Yosemite Sierra Wine Road. A great time will be had by all!

Amazing place for a family holiday

We loved staying at Bass Lake at Chardonnay Chalet. It's in a super cute town with a vibrant energy and you cannot beat the views and location. We'll 100% try to stay again. Thanks for an amazing holiday!”

Perfect Lake Getaway with Nostalgic Twist

We had a wonderful vacation on Bass Lake. Chardonnay Chalet was the perfect retreat, tucked on a hillside on the shore of Bass Lake, where the movie “The Great Outdoors” was filmed. We loved both the home and the neighborhood. There was plenty of room for our family of five. There are two master suites, a wonderful deck, and a nice open kitchen-dining-living area with lots of counter space. There is also a lower level with couch, TVs, and an arcade game; this room also opens to the deck. We loved walking the neighborhood; a little store and several restaurants are only ten minutes by foot. We spent two days in Yosemite National Park and the home was a perfect home base. We also made the drive to Sequoia National park which wasn’t too far. The area is beautiful. There are also plenty of local hikes—we did the Mono Trail (great view of the lake)—and plenty of lake options like renting a boat. Kevin was very helpful and kind from the onset. Open communication and a friendly demeanor made our first Thirdhome experience great. Thank you, Kevin!”

Wonderful mountain retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this home. The location was perfect and the decks were great for relaxing and visiting all day and evening. The proximity to Yosemite worked out great too as we enjoyed several days in the park. The home was spacious, and the hosts were responsive to any questions we had. Bass Lake is beautiful and we enjoyed the restaurants around the lake. I could make this trip again for sure.”
