The interior of the home was beautiful and well appointed. The downside was no access to local or live television. The exterior needs a little TLC.One thing that alarmed us was that when we returned from our excursion, the property manager was in the house. She explained her visit but unnerving nonetheless.

My family enjoyed this beautiful home during a visit to Yosemite National Park. The house is clean and comfortable, and the sunset views of the mountains from the hot tub were outstanding. The location is convenient to shops and restaurants in downtown Mariposa, but being a few miles away provided the quiet seclusion we were looking for. Thank you to the host for great communication throughout the process.

Fantastic property, one of our best vacation stays

We really enjoyed this updated property. The patio is almost magical at sunset and the outdoor toys were the highlight for our kid. Highly recommended!

This is a great find! The view from the back yard is beautiful, especially at sunset. It is very child friendly (even with some balls and toys for the kids in addition to board games) and has a jaccuzzi. We brought our own tea & spices, but they also had some for our use! They provided clean towels for the bathroom and for the jaccuzzi. It was a step up from our time share because they clearly thought of so many details to make our stay comfortable. We hope we can return next year!

Perfect Hideaway

The house was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed for a quick getaway to Yosemite. We thoroughly enjoyed our evenings on the patio watching the sunset over the mountains. The house is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Communication with the owners was fast and courteous- we would definitely stay here again. I absolutely loved the tranquil location!

Amazing property! I wish I could give you extra stars....

This has been our best experience with renting homes away from home. This property is well maintained, beautifully decorated and very clean. From the moment we stepped inside... awaiting us fresh flowers throughout the house, a bottle of wine on the counter and a lovely card from the homeowner. There are no words to express how welcomed we felt. Entering the home was fast and easy, the kitchen has everything to cook and even bake. The house is very specious and the family room has plenty of extra space for kids or just to relax and watch TV. Beds are very comfortable, sheets, comforters and towels are of good quality. We just wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

My family and I loved our time here. Perfect retreat after a long day in the park. Beautiful sunsets and the hot tub to relax after a long day of hiking. The house was beautifully decorated and close to Mariposa for dining options and groceries. Would definitely look to book next time we are on the area.

Wonderful stay!

We've had this trip booked for months and we're so very much looking forward to it. We arrived very late at night and were so excited to see the lovely hand written note, fresh flowers, and best of all... coffee, creamer & sugar for our morning coffee! The home is inviting, comfortable and just as shown in the photos. We spent our days exploring Yosemite and the evenings cooking dinner on the grill and watching the sunset over the mountains. Thank you, Anh for providing us a lovely, welcoming place to call home. And... we loved watching the deer and turkeys each day! It was wonderful!

Beautiful getaway

Beautiful home, beautiful views. Owner very kind. Sent communication about needing a Yosemite pass way in advance, so we could get one. We were worried about fires, he kept in contract and they were out and we had great time hiking Yosemite. Don’t just hike the valley, take time to go up and see tenanya lake, may lake and other sites on Tiiga road. House had everything for cooking. All pans, spices. Beds very comfortable, sheets amazing. Even in the ridiculous heat the hot tub was great to come back to.

What a wonderful place!

This home is amazing! The great room and kitchen are so inviting when you open the door you realize you made the right choice! The view out the back is incredible, the hot tub is awesome and the fire pit was wonderful. Everything is modern but country chic, perfect for the area. The location was an easy hour drive to Yosemite Valley. We loved the privacy and the flock of wild turkeys that visited daily. Anh put a lot of thought into this home, wireless chargers on the night stands, portable fans in each bedroom (to drown out the silence)Lol. I could go on and on but needless to say we'll be back.

Beautiful sunsets

This house was lovely. Larger than it appears in the listing. Views from back patio are wonderful. Well stocked kitchen. Nice decor. Good location. We took the public transit but into Yosemite, which was the best call as we couldn't get park passes. Learned that you don't need one if you take the bus.

Peaceful, beautiful, and well equipped.

We loved our stay at the moon ranch. They had everything we needed to enjoy our stay, including toys for the kids. The home was beautiful and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The kids toys were a hit and the hot tub was amazing with beautiful views. One of the best VRBOs we have ever stayed in.

Moon Ranch

The Moon Ranch was the perfect weekend getaway for our group visiting Yosemite. Pictures do not do the beautiful property justice. We really enjoyed the space and the access to hot tub, grill, fire pit, etc. The hot tub and comfy beds were perfect after a long day on the trails. We will definitely be back in the future!

Moon Ranch

Beautiful interior and location is a little over an hour to Yosemite. The house has everything one would need for a stay in Mariposa. The kitchen area and outside deck were wonderful to watch the mountains and birds outside. Especially mornings in the hammock. Overall, a nice place to stay and would stay again!

Amazing

We loved our stay. The property is beautiful, clean, modern and had everything you can ask for. It is a great place to relax and soak in the surrounding natural beauty. My children was occupied with the toys, swing, and loved running around in the open space. Anh was easy to work with and responsive. Thank you!
