This home was a great spot for a family of four visiting Yosemite National Park (about 1 hour to park entrance). The home was well equipped and the host was quick to respond to our queries. Restaurants at Mariposa were just a 10 mins drive away. The outdoor hot tub was truly THE highlight. We soaked in it and gazed at the stars each night!
This was a lovely secluded getaway, just off the beaten track enough to feel private but still close enough to Mariposa for convenient access to shops and restaurants. Rooms were clean and everything felt cozy and homey.
Yet another wonderful stay with the deer to keep me company. Had a great time just relaxing at your fantastic property. Hopefully, I’ll make it back up there soon.
Used this as our home base while exploring Yosemite. Peaceful location, but still close enough to town to be convenient. Worked great for our family of 4!
This beautiful home was as listed and perfect for our needs. The kitchen was well stocked for our meal prep and the home was very comfy overall. Great location if you are visiting Yosemite!
The home was well appointed, nicely furnished and comfortable, plus wonderful pots and pans for those of us who enjoy cooking. We loved the quiet environment and slept like logs!!
This was a return trip to this property - again, a perfect stay. Great communication with the owner, very comfortable, well appointed mountain home. We enjoyed the hot tub even in the rain, and relaxing by the fire inside, as well as a winter visit to Yosemite (45 min drive away).
Suffice to say, Kathleen, Alex and Sydney went above and beyond to look out for our well-being during an unusually stormy January. Their cabin was the perfect refuge. Would love to stay again.
This was our second time staying here, and it was just as nice as our first. The host Kathleen was very communicative, helpful and accommodating from the beginning. The place is well-kept, stocked with the essentials, and situated in a nice natural area that is perfect for a relaxing family get-away. We hope to return again soon!
The property was sparkling clean, and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook a full meal. Kathleen is a wonderful host, and I enjoyed meeting her. I would definitely stay here when I am in the Sierra again.
Our family stayed in the property as a base for visiting Yosemite. Excellent property and great location to do day trips to the park, which was about an hour to Yosemite Valley. We enjoyed the seclusion of the home but also were able to go into Mariposa to eat at some excellent restaurants. Very friendly and responsive hosts. Highly recommend this property.
Enjoyed the 3-day weekend with my adult kids in this hidden gem in the Sierras. Property is lovely with amazing country roads and ponds. Close to Yosemite and Bass Lake. I could just hang out on the deck all morning!
At 45 minutes from the el Portal gate, this was a perfect place to stay when all the lodgings closer to Yosemite were full. The house was clean and spacious, with lots of closet space, a hot tub,an exceptional kitchen, and deer in the yard. Better bedding would have made it perfect.

Awesome place! In the middle of no were but perfect for visiting Yosemite. The kitchen is equipped with most everything, which is what we want - we don't care to eat out while on vacation and hiking. The deck needs some maintenance but other than that it was clean and comfortable. I would stay here again if we are ever in the area.
Overall this was the perfect home base for a quick weekend trip to Yosemite. Some of the roads in the area are a bit rough, so be ready! We recommend coming in from closer to Mariposa. Otherwise you are in for a steep and windy gravel road.

I'm pleased to read that our rental home was the "perfect home base" for your I'm pleased to read that our home was the "perfect home base" for your Yosemite visit. I agree, we highly recommend using our specific directions to our home as opposed to a GPS. The "back road" is a county maintained road for emergency purposes. Access to our home is on a well-maintained dirt road for less than .4 mile from the paved road which is typical in our rural area. Not a problem for two wheel vehicles at all. The back road is rough and rugged and only for those that want a bit of advenure!
We had a great time at this VRBO home. It was spacious, clean, kitchen was fully stocked, and the wifi worked well. This VRBO home is a 1.5 hour drive from 3 parts of Yosemite National Park - Valley Village, Glacier Point, and Mariposa Grove. During non-peak weekend, it may take less than 1.5 hours. This VRBO home is a 10 min drive from Mariposa which has cute cafes, restaurants, and groceries stores.
This is our third stay at this comfortable cabin, in a quiet wooded hillside. One hour’s drive to Yosemite Valley (El Portal entrance). Nice amenities - hot tub, wood burning fireplace (wood stove), kitchen that opens to the dining and living area, high ceilings. Great for a cozy winter stay! Great communication with the host.
