The reason I want to stay in the park, is because 5 out of 6 trips to yosemite, we stayed in Oakhurst, which is really nice, but the driving in and out of the park is a killer. About an hour from Yosemite Valley. And that is way too far to drive in and out on an 18 mile hike day.
I'd like to stay in the park also so that we can be apart of the park. Not dealing with parking, just taking the bus around, or renting bikes, or walking.
Curry Village does not allow cooking, so that would mean that we would have to eat all meals in the restaurants and shops.
Tent camping in one of the pines is a little too much on an air mattress for me when attempting to tackle Half Dome.
The hotels are just out of the question. So that leave a happy medium, Housekeeping, where we can cook, have a camp fire, and sleep on actual beds, with some electricity and "luxury."
There seems to be at least 2 places that I know of where you could rent a house. This may be an option, but would require other people joining us... I have NO problem with this, but these types of commitments are hard to get from people, especially a year out. And especially when we are talking about non-Sat, Sun.

I'll keep doing the footwork and see what happens.
