Located 8 minutes from the beautiful town of Mariposa and 45 minutes from the entrance of Yosemite National Park, Riverside Retreat is not just a dwelling, it is a nurturing place for gathering at the western edge of the grand Yosemite National Park. This beautiful home sits on 5 acres of land, and has a river running through it. This is a place to experience beauty, peace, tranquility, inspirational cooking, and the kind of rejuvenation only the mountains can offer. Riverside Retreat is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom, fully climate controlled home that offers abundant natural light and views of the surrounding mountains, boulders and river. After a day’s hike in Yosemite, Riverside Retreat awaits when you are ready to return home. The place is equipped with all the creature comforts one can ask for: 1\. Three comfortable queen beds with memory foam in all three bedrooms, and a fourth room that is perfect for an Office. 2\. Fully stocked kitchen - the kitchen has most everyday essentials like cookware, appliances etc for cooking a delicious meal and a lovely view of the outdoors. 3\. Living room has a TV, books, sofa, and comfortable chairs. 4\. Separate Office if you’re in search of a private study 5\. Washer Dryer 6\. Abundant wildlife - you can spot Deers, Cranes, Eagles on the property and fishes and turtles in the river. 7\. The place has fast Starlink internet for a perfect getaway. The cellphone reception varies by carrier, but don't expect it to be as good as you would in the city. We've installed a landline in the office that offers free calling throughout US / Canada. 8.Abundant history - a) The road up to this secluded valley was used by loggers in the late 1800s during the gold rush. It’s paved in some places, and gravel for about a mile. It might make you nervous on your first trip, but once you do it a few times you will be a total mountain pro. b) If you look around, you can find perfectly preserved Indian Grinding Holes on the property - some of these carvings are thought to be as much as three thousand years old and are now becoming difficult to discern elsewhere. 9\. In the midst of Mother Nature, you can relax and follow your flow. Watch the stars at night, listen to the birds and the wind, sunbathe or chill in the shade. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Books - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Office ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - One pet total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - On a river ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/65000000/64430000/64426900/64426858/aeefd41a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Mountain retreat - stargazing, sunsets, hot tub, pool table, Yosemite, Bass Lake Mariposa - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 22 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-18&endDate=2025-10-19&selected=64426858&PinnedHotelID=64426858&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33660000/33654300/33654205/6415714a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Oak Rock Hideaway ~ A Tranquil Mountain Setting With Easy Access To Yosemite Mariposa - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 141 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-18&endDate=2025-10-19&selected=33654205&PinnedHotelID=33654205&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Aerial view](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/24000000/23280000/23274600/23274565/9ce5d229.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Secluded getaway in the Oaks and Pines with meandering Deer Mariposa - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 170 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-18&endDate=2025-10-19&selected=23274565&PinnedHotelID=23274565&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33510000/33505100/33505016/f2efe9a2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy Cottage Retreat, Close to Yosemite, Beautiful Views, Hot Tub & More!

Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Sara K. Jun 24, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Whimsical property near Mariposa This rental is very close to the town of Mariposa and offers comfortable new furnishings and updated bathrooms and kitchen in a spacious setting. There are lovely whimsical touches in the decor. It is pet friendly and there is area for your pet to run around in. Access and check-in were a cinch. The rating reflects a few opportunities with this new listing. While it is described as being on a river, it is really more of a creek. The road and driveway access are both dirt. The house would benefit from a bit more outfitting for larger groups and adding some touches like a dishwasher, wine glasses and ice cube trays. The owner is very easy to work with. He is responsive and easy to communicate with. It is good for family groups or friends. ##### Sara K.
