This property has to be my favorite vacation rental I have ever stayed at. Extremely clean, check in was easy, great distance to Mariposa and Yosemite and the host were extremely friendly!

The best getaway for couples
Very nice property to have a weekend getaway for couples. It was very clean and had a very cozy feeling. There was a chest full of board/card games and billiard table. Everything that we needed to know was already provided by the property owner in a guide. I would highly recommend this place for anyone who are looking for calming getaway.

Beautiful Mountain property surrounded by private hiking trails
I would so much rather stay here than anywhere in the park. The home was beautifully decorated, very comfortable, and perfect for a family. We spent 2 days in the park and 1 day enjoying the property surrounding the house. The owners were so helpful and they really thought of everything to make our Yosemite vacation a memorable one.

10/10 stay
We rented this property while we were in the county to see Yosemite. Truly beautiful home that shows the owners care. The house was relaxing and beautifully decorated. Everything was labeled and they provided anything you would need to make the stay comfortable. My only regret is we didn’t have more time to stay.
