House in North Fork, California
OVERVIEW
Morning light filters through tall pines as you step onto the wide wooden deck, coffee in hand and mountain views on the horizon. Putney Place is a single-story retreat with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and room for 8, centered on a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace. Fire up the gas grill, then gather by the outdoor brick fireplace under string lights. Bass Lake is about 10 minutes away, and Yosemite's South Entrance is roughly a 40-minute drive.
Set on several acres among towering pines and leafy oaks, Putney Place is a single-story home that feels made for slow mornings and long evenings outdoors. Inside, a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace anchors the living room, and two sliding glass doors open to a covered patio and a sprawling, multi-level deck. From the deck, the trees part to reveal distant mountains, and the outdoor brick fireplace sets the scene for evenings under string lights.

Sleeping Arrangements
Total occupancy: 8 guests
Total beds: 4
With four private bedrooms and a mix of king and queen beds, the layout gives every couple or pair of travelers a door to close, making it a natural fit for two families or a group of friends sharing a getaway.
Bedroom 1 features a king bed, a roomy choice for a couple settling in after a full day at the lake.
Bedroom 2 offers a queen bed and a calm, restful setting for a second couple or a pair of travelers.
Bedroom 3 has a queen bed, giving another set of guests a private retreat of their own.
Bedroom 4 features a king bed, an inviting spot for parents or anyone who likes room to stretch out.
Each bedroom has its own character: white upholstered platform beds beneath bold abstract art, birch tree artwork with antique upholstered chairs and teal curtains, and a room with an upholstered headboard and a sliding glass door opening to a covered deck with trees beyond. One bedroom adds an ensuite bathroom, a walk-in closet, and a floral reading chair. Ceiling fans keep the rooms airy.
Bathrooms
Two full bathrooms share a polished, cohesive style, with granite double vanities topped by glass vessel sinks. One features a glass-enclosed walk-in shower and a large window, while the ensuite offers a tiled walk-in shower with a glass door and brushed nickel showerhead. Towels, body soap, and toilet paper are provided.
Living Areas
The living room is built for gathering, with dark leather sofas and an ottoman, a plush gray sofa, a leather recliner, and a black and chrome egg chair arranged around the towering brick fireplace and its woodstove insert. A wall-mounted TV with cable and a DVD player sits above, two ceiling fans turn overhead, and dark wood floors and framed wildlife art add rustic warmth. Two sliding glass doors open straight onto the covered patio, so indoor and outdoor living flow together.
Kitchen & Dining
The galley kitchen pairs white cabinets with granite countertops and stainless appliances, including a glass cooktop under a stainless range hood, a double wall oven, a dishwasher, and a stainless refrigerator. A double sink sits beneath a large window, and a microwave, coffee maker, toaster, blender, and baking sheet make prep easy. A high chair is available for little ones. The kitchen opens to the dining area, where a large wood plank table with upholstered chairs gathers everyone beneath an orb chandelier and a big, light-filled window.
Decks & Outdoor Fireplace
Outdoors is where Putney Place shines. A large, multi-level wood deck steps down from the covered patio, with wrought iron dining sets for meals in the open air and a sunny bistro table tucked among the oaks. The covered lounge patio centers on a brick outdoor fireplace, string lights glow overhead after dark, and distant mountains rise beyond the trees. Fire up the gas grill and let dinner stretch into the evening.
