Tucked beside granite giants and a whispering seasonal creek, Boulder Creek Retreat is a rustic‑modern bungalow that feels like a secret hideaway with creature comforts and playful surprises. Warm finishes, clean modern lines, and thoughtful lighting create a cozy, stylish interior that invites you to slow down, explore, and linger.
Step into an open living area where natural textures meet contemporary comfort. The living room flows to a well‑appointed kitchen and dining nook—perfect for slow breakfasts before a day of hiking.
Two bedrooms sit on opposite sides of the main living space so each couple enjoys true privacy; both bedrooms feature brand new luxury beds, quality linens, and easy access to a full bath (one en‑suite, one hall bath).
An extra room with a bay window is a quiet retreat for playing games, reading, napping, or daydreaming.
For evenings of friendly competition, gather around the pool table—a centerpiece for laughter and low‑stakes tournaments.
When the weather calls for fresh air, step outside to roam the private grounds or settle in as stars emerge. The outdoor space includes a barbecue and plenty of room to wander, with string lights and natural rock formations setting a magical tone after dusk. Listen to frogs singing their serenades. Wildlife sightings are also common—deer, songbirds, and the occasional fox remind you that this is a place where nature is your neighbor.
(Outdoor fires are allowed from Nov1st-Apr30th)
Practical comforts are built in so you can relax without fuss: a fully equipped kitchen, Smart TV for cozy movie nights, washer/dryer, and parking on the property.
The home sleeps 4 comfortably and is designed for couples, friends traveling together, small families, business travelers who want to decompress in nature, and anyone who values privacy and outdoor access.
Whether you’re chasing sunrise hikes in Yosemite, exploring Mariposa’s charming main street, or simply craving a restorative weekend, Boulder Creek Retreat offers a private base with a playful heart and a peaceful soul.
If you 're traveling with a larger party let us know, the property next door: Granite View Retreat may be available.
