3 Bedroom House in Bass Lake

The Tulip House is nestled in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. It is the enchanting legacy of Jill Cooley, ready to amaze lovers of fantasy, of art, of whimsy. It is a home only the soul of a gypsy could envision and create. Susan Cooley is owner and 'curator' of this art gallery, and I invite you to become immersed in the extraordinary craftsmanship, the magical integration of carved wood, tile work that looks like quilting, and wonderful art collected for for decades, resulting in this wonderful and cozy home.
It is a home of fairy tales and storybooks, part "Little House on the Prairie," part South Sea Island, infused with a Hobbit House and a gypsy caravan.
It is located in Bass Lake, which offers fishing, jet skiing, shopping, hiking, or simply relaxing.
20 minutes from Yosemite's South Entrance.
Close to the Sugar Pine Railroad.
Near vineyards, museums, and art galleries.
10 minutes from Oakhurst and 1 hour from Fresno Intl Airport.
The home is such a great fusion of styles, of artisans talents, with nods to artist Piet Mondrian, tile work of the Alhambra in Spain, with a mix of the San Francisco Victorians, with carved doors and archways evoking Bali, and with the home spun quilting in both bedding and in tile and wood combinations.
There are 2 gas fireplace/stoves, a huge well stocked kitchen. The master bedroom has a king size bed and bathroom with a huge shower. In the living room, there is a purple velvet sofa bed that has an enhanced 10" combination foam and air mattress, and the African bathroom. The second bedroom is the Loft over the garage, which sleeps 3-5 people, and has a bathroom, TV, table and chairs, and 2 recliners. The third bedroom called the Corner Pocket, has a queen bed and a half bath. There is a laundry area. Off the kitchen is a porch for lounging or for dining, and on one side, an area to barbeque.
There is WiFi, cable TV, and high speed internet. There is a phone for 911.
Pets are possibly accepted, and must be disclosed to the owner. It is a pet friendly house, but not one for dogs that are not house broken, or are chewers of carpets, table legs, or decks. Yep, please, if your animal has any of these bad habits, don't bring them.
Of course, the Tulip House is smoke free.

Summary: Our family absolutely loved our stay at the Tulip House. The house was truly a treasure with all its amazing art and decor. The house was very clean, comfortable, well-stocked with kitchen supplies, and even provided toys and activities for the kids. Susan was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We have been traveling to Bass Lake for decades and this will stand out as a truly memorable vacation.

Summary: This place is AMAZING! Part museum, part art, all beautiful!! This house can ONLY be experienced. IF you are headed to Yosemite, this place is AMAZING!! My wife and I could have sat hwre ALL day, but my kids wanted to explore. Seriously, this place is a one of a kind stay!!

Summary: Rented this home for 6 adults for 3 nights. It was in a perfect location...easy to get in and out of and close to everything that we wanted to do. The home was exactly as described, and we had a seamless check in. My only issue, was that the WIFI didn't seem strong enough (This was a working vacation for me) and I kept getting booted out of my system I have to log into for work.Lessson learned: don't work while on vacation! High recommend this home for your upcoming vacation!

Summary: You will be hard pushed to find another house as charming, whimsical, exciting, imaginative and awe inspiring at the Tulip House. We stayed with our grandchildren and they absolutely loved everything and every detail. we were there for 3 nights and still found new things as we were leaving. 100% recommend this house for anyone to explore and wonder at the work that has gone into every single aspect of it. A complete delight

Summary: The Tulip House is perhaps the best VRBO property we’ve had the pleasure of experiencing. The host is an amazing curator of an extraordinary home she inherited from her sister, an artist who created the space over a large part of her life. We were particularly enthralled by the stunning tile work throughout the home. Every wall is adorned with beautiful art work. All the doors and trim are custom made with incredible carved wood. It was immaculate and most, if not all, the small and major appliances looked new. The host even gave us an intriguing riddle to solve. We were asked if we could find a part of a broken ceramic butter dish that her sister had incorporated into the structure of the home. It turned into a fun treasure hunt of sorts. It actually helped us appreciate some detail in the house that we may have otherwise overlooked. Anyone staying in this house will have a time to remember!

Summary: Truly unique and lovely property. Large comfortable beds and nice bathrooms. Perfect place to unwind and relax after a long day in Yosemite

KIM G. May 22, 2024 05:42:27 PM

Summary: We had another larger house rented nearby and all meals were held there. At first the people in this house were disappointed they were not in the main house, but when they saw Susan’s house, they didn’t mind at all. They loved it and in fact one day the whole group had a picnic lunch here just so everyone could see it. Susan is a terrific host. Thank you!

Summary: The reviews you read tell all our stories. Magical!!!

Mary S. Oct 30, 2023 07:12:24 PM

Summary: Susan was an excellent host and the house was perfect - super cute, well equipped with lots of room. We loved our stay and plan to return.

Donald G. Sep 28, 2023 02:02:54 AM

Summary: The house is really cool. The attention to detail in the decor is remarkable. My only complaint is about the location being 12 miles from the South Entrance from Yosemite which may be accurate but it leaves you 50 miles from Yosemite Valley which is most peoples destination. I did not know that so I consider the location description misleading.
