About this property

COZY OAKS ~ A Perfect Family Retreat

Cozy Oaks offers a beautiful retreat in historic Mariposa, nearly 1 hour outside Yosemite National Park and conveniently located between the Valley and Southern Yosemite entrances.

This 2500 square foot home has 3 large bedrooms with a king bed, queen bed, full bed, bunk beds and pack and play available. There is also a day bed that can be used for sleeping in the game room. There are 2.5 baths in the house to accommodate 6 adult guests with lots of opportunity for fun, recreation and relaxation.

Our home has a secure and gated interior fenced area of about 1.5 acres, and sits on a breathtaking 5 acres of open and rolling majestic California Oaks. Enjoy the serene views from within the house or especially off the wraparound deck that has both shaded and unshaded dining areas. The garage has been converted into a fully functioning recreation room, equipped with billiards and ping pong for your pleasure. Adjacent to the house is the brand new hot tub oasis area, the tub accomodates 4 and is nestled between the Oaks and covered by a natural wood gazebo, giving you another pristine view of the private property from the comfort of the tub.

Whether you are looking for the perfect accommodations to plan a visit with friends, retreat, reunite with families with or without children, or just looking for a family vacation spot to enjoy the peace of the country, Cozy Oaks can be your refuge. Our home is very versatile in offering many amenities depending on your needs. We have plenty of towels, bed sheets and blankets, lots of serving ware, a fun electric fireplace and has a fully equipped kitchen with modern conveniences. There are 3 TVs and excellent WiFI. The living area has vaulted ceilings and lots of windows with unique and beautiful views from each one.

Our property is non-smoking and non-vaping.

If you are visiting with children we have everything to make your visit more comfortable and packing less stressful. We have a changing table, high chair, pack n play (with sheets and blankets), extra bed rails, lots of toys (legos, playmobile, barbies, etc) and lots of games. Just let us know if you have need for use of any of our child equipment and we can give you a full list of what we have.

Mariposa is at the heart of Gold Rush country, a truly historic California destination. The town of Mariposa offers plenty of terrific dining options, lots of little quaint and fun shops, the Mariposa History Museum, and has public transportation into Yosemite Valley year round on the YARTS. Cozy Oaks is the ideal destination for a much needed getaway. Our family fell in love with this perfect spot and came up with the name Cozy Oaks because it really described the feel for our home away from home. Every part of the year offers different and beautiful experiences at Cozy Oaks, we ourselves make every attempt to get out here as much as we can.

We hope you respect and enjoy our home, and feel very confident that Cozy Oaks will provide a very enjoyable experience for your next trip. Our property manager, Heather is available daily 24/7 to all our guests, and we appreciate any and all feedback to make sure your needs are met. From our family to yours, Happy Vacationing!

Family vacation to Yosemite

This was a fantastic home. I recommend it for a family staying in the Yosemite area. It was perfect for our older children to keep themselves busy after a day of hiking. I highly recommend this home. Eileen was phenomenal and always available.

Large and Comfortable

Everyone in our group was very pleased with our stay at Cozy Oaks. We were surprised by the large deck area and lovely landscaping. Inside was plenty of space to spread out and be comfortable. Have stayed at lots of VRBO homes and this is near the top of the list.

Fantastic family holiday

We had a great time. The house is lovely and well equiped. The location is great for exploring Yosemite being roughly equal distance between the west and southern park entrances. We made several day trips into the park over our week long stay. One $35 entrance ticket is valid for 7 days. We walked the west valley loop, climbed Sentinel Point, saw the giant sequoia trees, and went riding at Wawona Stables. All highly recommended. Nearby Mariposa has a large supermarket as well as many good resteraurants. The Mining and Mineral museum in Mariposa is also worth visiting. Weather was great. Overall a fantastic family holiday. Recommended.

The best VRBO EVER!

Wow, this house is so great. There is plenty of space for everyone. The primary bedroom is on the first floor, with the other two main bedrooms upstairs. Lovely FULLY appointed kitchen, great space to hang out, and beautiful surroundings. The family room has a huge couch, with plenty of space for the whole family to relax comfortably. We were visiting my nephew and his family and they joined us for dinner--everyone had plenty of space (dinner for 8 easily accommodated). My great nephew LOVED all of the toys, especially a very extensive Brio train collection. The rec room was so much fun! Our boys (all adults) spent hours playing pool and ping pong. Beautiful deck, the hot tub is lovely, and lots and lots of games (although we didn't have time to enjoy). Everything in the house is labeled, taking all the guesswork out of, "how do I turn that light on?" The location is exceptional, close to downtown Mariposa as well as Yosemite. This place simply felt like a home. Wish we could have stayed longer! This house has forever raised the bar of VRBOs! The house was spotless too, and not just on the surface (for example, the area under the kitchen sink is even clean!). So clean and organized! The best stay and an unbelievable value!!

Clean, Comfortable, and Relaxing

A clean, comfortable, and well organized house! The house is bright and cheery the moment you walk in. After a long drive the welcome basket a goodies was a treat! Plenty of places to sit inside and outside the house whether on the large comfortable L shaped couch in the living room, to chairs and stools by the pool and ping pong tables to tables and chairs on the outside wrap around deck as well as benches at the hot tub. Plenty of books, DVDs and board games to interest people of all ages. (Although we didn't bring little ones they also have a whole closet full of toys for the wee ones) All light and fan switches, drawers, cupboards and shelves have labels to make finding items or putting them away easy. Cooking was a joy in this kitchen; all the necessary items and a knife sharpener too for those who want a sharp knife for chopping veggies. Clean, modern fridge, stove, and oven. They even had aprons which we like to use. Plenty of kitchen towels as we prefer washing and drying the dishes ourselves. The jacuzzi was clean and thankfully there was a net for cleaning if any leaves happened to drift in. The pool and pinpong room were inviting and if you have little ones a table and games for them was located here too. A book of instructions on how to operate the tvs and dvd was helpful as well. Little things like having a box of tissues, enough Toilet Paper and paper towels as well as sandwich bags to pack food in for our hikes/outings made it feel like home. Everything you could possibly need for a relaxing and enjoyable week is at this house!

Awesome home!

Probably the most well thought out property we’ve ever stayed in! Photos don’t do it justice. Cozy yet spacious, lots of outdoor patio deck space. Well stocked kitchen. About 10 min drive along beautiful country roads into Mariposa, then an hour into Yosemite valley (off season). The game room was the main reason we booked it (to keep the teens entertained) but the entire house was better than expected. The owner was super accessible too. Thank you for creating a wonderful space.

Relaxing, peaceful, & comfortable.

Stayed here with the family for the kids' spring break. Two-day trips to Yosemite, easy to get in and out the park. One Escape room experience in town and two dinners out with some ice cream in between. Getting to town is an easy 15 minute drive, Yosemite was about 45 mins to the park entrance. The house was fantastic with everything you could want and more. Plenty of room for a family of five, easy to find kitchen supplies and everything worked. It even had Wi-Fi and dish so I could catch a March madness game. Very quiet place to stay, would definitely stay again.

Clean and cozy

We enjoyed our stay at the Cozy Cottage. On the days we didn’t go into Yosemite there was plenty to keep us all entertained. We played board games, did puzzles, enjoyed the hot tub, and taught our kids how to play pool. The beds were comfortable and water pressure was awesome-little things that made us feel right at home!

We had a really good time at this property. Eileen was an outstanding property manager. She was very flexible and answered all my questions quickly. The property had a very wide variety of games, puzzles, etc. The highlights were seeing deer just outside the property a couple of times, the hot tub, the landscape/flowers and the pool and ping pong tables. Also, Everything was perfectly organized and labeled. We had everything we needed. A few areas of the house might need some updating but this was not a big deal at all.
