Great Cabin

Loved the "cabin in the woods" feel of the Midpines HWY 140 house. So close to Yosemite we were able to see all the sights we wanted to and had a nice cozy cabin to return to. Loved the fireplace and that it was all set up and ready to light when we arrived. We brought food to prepare and all kitchen necessities were there and easy to find. Lots of DVDs and games available for the kids too.

Comfort and Charm: Our Family Stay near Yosemite NP

We had a wonderful stay in this quaint home with so much history. It’s a vintage style home with all the modern amenities. Just a 38min drive from Yosemite entrance and 8-10min from Mariposa. Amazing location! Perfect for all the activities we wanted to do.

Beautiful views

This is a quirky old building. Used to be a road side cafe. The old timey photos of the cafe were a nice touch. The fireplace in the kitchen was awesome! Just looking out the kitchen windows to the creek across the street really made it feel like you're in the middle of nature. Not far from local shops and mom and pop restaurants. Still conveniently close to Merced river and Yosemite national park. The beds were nice but too soft for us. Also one of the beds was too high off the ground for some of our family members. Queen size only, no kings. But well stocked with dvds and games if needed. There was no working porch light so get there during day light, its easy to miss. We would definitely stay here again. Wish i could live there forever!

Beautiful home!!!

Lovely home located just past Mariposa on your way to Yosemite National Park. Huge kitchen ( I love to cook) huge fireplace and I loved the privacy in the backyard. The beds and bedding were so comfortable. The host was amazing and super friendly and so were the owners. My trips will be more regular and this will be my stop. It’s perfect!

Nice house, but uncomfortable

Property is a bit difficult to locate at night time. House was better than the pictures, place is clean and located in good location with respect to Yosemite. Unfortunately, the furniture is very uncomfortable... The bed was sagging and way too soft. Everyone in our party complained and sleep came at a minimum. Sofa was also too soft. Our backs were hurting from the poor furniture.

Wonderful Stay

We loved this rental. Our group of 7 (4 adults, 3 children) stayed here while we enjoyed a couple of days at Yosemite. We loved how spacious this home was, and it felt cozy. We cooked a couple of meals and the kitchen had everything we needed. If we ever go back to Yosemite we will definitely stay here again.

Nice proximity to Yosemite

This house is right on 140 on your way in through the Arch Rock entrance to Yosemite. Unless you are staying in the park, it seemed to be one of the closest options other than a big motel right at the entrance. The house was well equipped and although a little more rustic had everything we needed. There is some road work being done between the house and Yosemite when we were there and so some delays both on the way into the park and back as well as we could hear some trucks buzzing by throughout the night. Pretty quick drive into Mariposa where there is a grocery store and multiple restaurants.

Quaint and Roomy!

Our group (5 adults from 22 - 49) had plenty of room to be together or spread out at this quaint house. We arrived and the house was clean and welcoming. It is an older house; it has all the charm and quirky features that comes with a house of this age. It isn’t as fancy as some places but it lets you feel like you are at home. There are 3 bedrooms that are connected to each other but all bedrooms have a separate entrance. Two share a bathroom and the other (bunk bed room) has a bathroom across the hall. The bunk bed room and the middle room also share a door. The beds do squeak as others have posted but they are extremely comfy. Lots of extra pillows and blankets are throughout the house as are games and info about the area. The kitchen is roomy with plenty of space to make meals and eat on the go or to sit down together. Lots of storage; there are some ants but nothing too terrible. It is fully stocked with all the things to cook, some spices, and some helpful things to pack lunches. We needed a cooler to pack lunches for our day trips and one quick message had one brought to us. Our group was able to spread out all over the living room in the mornings for coffee or at the end of the day without feeling cramped or like we were on top of each other. The house is an hour from Yosemite Valley; we arrived by 10am each day and had less than a 5 minute wait. It was a perfect location for us!

Nice Rustic Rental

Lots of space and beds for the price! Big kitchen and living room, plenty of chairs. Lots of kitchen utensils and some food & spices in the cabinets. Layout is a little unusual with two bedrooms connected via sliding door. There is no true "master" either, as two bedrooms are connected to one bathroom and the other bathroom is across a hallway in the addition.

Yosemite trip

We loved our stay. The home is 1hr from Yosemite valley and convenient to Mariposa. We had dinner each night outside on the picnic table, which was a nice option to have. There are ants as other reviewers have mentioned, but it isn’t an issue if you keep opened food in the fridge. The beds were pretty squeaky. But the home met our needs and we really enjoyed our stay.
