About this property
Modern cabin located close to the El Portal entrance to Yosemite National Park.
Welcome to our Plumbar Creek Retreat! This unique home, built in 2014, is a modern cabin with beautiful 360 degree views including Mariposa and Midpines. The home has an open living area / kitchen with a wood stove, and three extra large bedrooms, each with a bathroom as-well-as a 1/2 bath in the living area.
The outdoor living space includes a 300 SqFt. covered porch, a 400 SqFt. deck and a 500 SqFt. rear covered patio with seating. The Arch Rock entrance to Yosemite is less than 30 miles northeast, and historical downtown Mariposa is less than 10 minutes southwest.
We're located off Triangle Road (close to Hwy 140) and exactly one mile down Buckingham Mountain Road to Plumbar Creek Rd. Buckingham Mountain and Plumbar Creek Roads are well graveled and will bring you to our secluded mountain top retreat, accessible 365 days a year.
Thank you for visiting.

About the host
Hosted by Dave Atkins
Local small business owner with three boys. I love this area. Yosemite, obviously, is a huge draw. However, Mariposa is a such a great small town with great restaurants and bars. The downtown area is historic and fun!
Why they chose this property
Mariposa is a great historical town with several great restaurants and bars. The town supervisors have done a great job keeping the town small and cute with an undeniable historical flair. The area provides lots of elevation and topography options with homes located from 2,000 to 5,000 feet elevation. This home is at 3,000 feet which is perfect for weather. Snow typically less than a foot and it typically doesn't stick around more than a day.
What makes this property unique
This is a highly efficient and comfortable house with a powerful forced air unit, energy efficient walls and windows and great water pressure. It's on a great 450' well that has great water and a powerful pump. On top of that, we have reverse osmosis water that is filtered before coming in the house, then triple filtered. We also have solar panels for energy efficiency! This is a great house for relaxing with family and friends while visiting Yosemite National Park!
The home is very private with distant views in all directions. I guarantee you will love this place. The house is cozy yet has extra large rooms and an open kitchen / living area. TVs are connected to the internet for Netflix, YouTube, Amazon. All TVs are smart TVs. The wood stove is optional, but a romantic option. The home gets super-warm in no time with either the forced air unit or the wood stove.
