We very much enjoyed our stay in this cabin. The location was really convenient for our Yosemite exploration while still being a short drive to Mariposa for restaurants. Inside was clean and comfortable, and the outside space was fantastic. We enjoyed playing yard games and being entertained by the local turkeys in the morning. Would definitely recommend.

Out of the way location, but close enough to amenities

This is a very nice cabin, out of the way, but not secluded. It was close enough to town to be able to get to restaurants and other amenities easily. It is less than an hour from Yosemite National Park. A great place for R&R after hiking the park.

A beautiful log

Our family stayed here when we visited the Yosemite NP two weeks ago. The house is very lovely and clean. It has everything we need. It's tranquil and we had perfect nights of sleep there. My kids loved to play in the front yard after a day of hiking in Yosemite. A lot of good memories. Highly recommend!

great

We thought the cabin was wonderful. Everything was so clean and new. The only thing I would want next time is bars in the shower. I am 85 years old and I didnt feel safe getting out of the shower.I hope I can go back some day under better circumstances.We had gone for a funeral.

Hello, my name is Sharon and I have lived locally in Mariposa for the past 28+ years. My family and I absolutely love living in Mariposa--it is such a special place with unique shops and hometown atmosphere. Yosemite is such an amazing place to explore and I am really excited to welcome guests to our cabin who are coming to Yosemite or who would just like a little mountain retreat.

Why they chose this property

This cabin is in a great location! We are in Midpines, and is located only 30 miles to Yosemite's Arch Rock Entrance and 6.5miles to Mariposa. Enjoy the mountain views, privacy, and peaceful atmosphere.

What makes this property unique

What makes this cabin extra special is the convenient location with a short scenic drive along the Merced River to Yosemite's Arch Rock Entrance. The thoughtful interior details includes locally milled cedar on interior walls and mountain themed furnishings--gives that camping feel while enjoying the comforts of home--such as wifi, a smart TV, and central AC/heating. This cabin has a perfect outdoor area for a family barbeque, star-gazing and relaxing after a day at the park! Welcome!!
