This is a really cute and fully equipped place for a family to stay. It is super clean, has everything you need and want and Beth is fantastic with her communication and responsiveness. The only thing to be aware is that it is at least a 45mins to an hour plus drive to the Yosemite National Park. But Mariposa is a cute little town and you definitely get some quiet family fun time!

However, this home has all the amenities you need. It’s just an hour to Yosemite and is such a beautiful drive that you won’t mind it. We don’t have young children but admired the set up for them. The jacuzzi was so needed after hiking upper Yosemite falls and that sky was priceless!! The stars were stunning and awe inspiring. There is a very friendly cat named Eddie who greets you and you likely will see the family of deer that sneak around. It’s just a lovely experience.

From the house to the Valley Visitor Center was about an hour and a half. To Mariposa Grove was about an hour. Beth met us the first day we arrive and provided us with tips and advice on what to do in Yosemite. She was great and the advice was as well. The hot tub was nice to come back to after a long day of hiking. The house was clean and the whole family slept great (all the beds were super comfortable). We would come here again in a heartbeat. ##### Rolando M. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Wendy W. Dec 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Kinda funky Kitchen well equipped to serve and cook for 6. We were missing a baking sheet, but Beth ran over with one in minutes! Did not like square dining table that was pub height. Main bedroom only had an armoire - no closet. No wood- burning fireplace use allowed. Recliners on main sofa mostly non functioning. Property is an older modular home, floors very uneven and the home, while has some upgrades, had evidence of needed repairs/maintenance. Several items were somewhat dangerous - slippery shower floor and very slippery deck when icy. The area is a bit remote - 15 minutes from a town - but lovely. Had a great trip. ##### Wendy W.

Beth, the host, was so accommodating and helpful! The house is cute and really well stocked, the view is lovely but the farm animals were a our favorites! We had a blue heron in the front yard each morning and the little blue eyed Siamese cat was the sweetest cat I have even been around. We cooked the first two nights and went to the ramen restaurant in Mariposa for the 3rd night. Great kitchen to cook in! The drive into Yosemite is right at an hour and it is just gorgeous. The closest entrance we used (two or three turns from the house) never had more than a 5 minute wait and we went early one morning but around 10 a.m. the next morning. We thought it would be chaotic over Memorial Day but it was a breeze. Yosemite is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been and I've been to 80% of the National parks. Great house, great area, great host! I would highly recommend and I hope we can get back there in the next few years. ##### Jill S.

Thank you so much Beth, we hope to return some time. Drive to Yosemite is amazing, it took us around 90mins, but either way is very beautiful. We had two wonderful days in the park, and we all loved coming back to Beth’s house, which was very homely, spacious and well equipped. The children in particular loved the nature, including the deer, ponies and the horses! Sadly our car rental failed to start on our first day, but Beth and team were able to help us start the car and give us jump leads should it happen again. We can’t thank her enough. ##### Malcolm H.

Es ist für alles gesorgt und wir haben die Terrasse mit grillen von Marshmallows am Abend sehr genossen. Absolut ruhig und wundervoll gelegen. Wir wären sehr gerne länger geblieben und die Zeit war viel zu kurz. Vielen lieben Dank für diesen wundervollen Aufenthalt. ##### Marie M. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John E.

Spotlessly clean property. Very peaceful location. Pool, basketball, hot tub, table tennis all great. Lovely little horses. Deck area lovely to sit out on. Lots of sitting space inside also. Master bedroom with lovely en suite. It is 1 to 1.5 hours from principal Yosemite locations, but easy drives ##### John E. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kim M.
