Trabucco Trails - Stargaze near Yosemite

IMPORTANT: IF BRINGING A DOG TELL US BEFORE YOU ARRIVE (PET FEE WILL APPLY)

Trabucco Trails is conveniently located near Yosemite in California's Gold Country, on a historic parcel near the Mariposa County community of Bear Valley, on a quiet, rural stretch of Highway 49.

During the Gold Rush days, the parcel was once cultivated as a vegetable garden, while Forty-Niners discovered gold in the area. The historic rock walls on property mark the perimeter where the garden once grew.

The joy of discovery continues here today. Now you can discover the vast riches our universe has to offer. Trabucco Trails, located on 17 privately owned acres, provides you with a grand opportunity to stargaze using high-end, easy-to-use instruments. A robotic GO-TO telescope is provided during your stay, and is included in the rental cost. This open, rural stretch of Highway 49, which is considered 'above the fog and below the snow', provides you with many clear night opportunities, even in winter

The Trabucco Trails House, newly constructed in 2018, is well appointed and available year round. Mariposa, the county seat, which is 10 miles south, has many essential services, along with many wonderful dining, shopping, and historic sight-seeing experiences. Yosemite National Park's West entrance is located about 45 minutes away up Highway 140 from Mariposa.

We provide housekeeping service (not daily maid service), before and after your stay. Courtesy towels, paper products, coffee, tea, cocoa and guest soap are provided to welcome you on the day you arrive. Personal key code access provides you with convenience and security. We also provide a fold-away sofa bed in the living room.

Because of the rural nature of the area, there is abundant opportunity for wildlife sightings, such as deer, wild turkey, coyote, bobcat, birds of prey, and perhaps an occasional bear. Seasonal creeks at the North and South ends of the property flow during winter and spring. And, of course, there are plenty of trails here at Trabucco Trails here on our 17 privately owned acres for your outdoor experience pleasure. Make sure to leave some time in your schedule during your stay for stargazing too.

Using the telescope, beautiful views of the Orion Nebula, Andromeda Galaxy, Hercules Cluster, and many other deep sky objects are yours to behold. The telescopes offer a TOUR mode, which takes you to the best and brightest objects in the sky during your stay. Stargazing doesn't get any easier than this.

From hiking trails to star trails, you will enjoy a memorable Yosemite experience when you stay at Trabucco Trails.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 1.5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player.

Wow, what an excellent place! So quiet. Occasional car passing overnight, but very peaceful and a reasonable distance to Yosemite. Place was extremely clean (I think the cleanest bnb I’ve ever been), no weird smells or anything. Well laid out space too. Mike was very responsive and helpful. Very private and absolutely want to stay again!

Clean house that was easy to find. The driveway has some bumps and dibbits which might make for challenging drive up after rain. Beds were very soft (too soft for my liking) but ample pillows made up for that. Lots of camping chairs outside were perfect for looking at the really amazing night sky Kitchen was missing a few cooking essentials but I've passed that on to the host so hopefully that will be taken care of. Overall a very pleasant place for me and my friend and our two dogs to hang out for a few days
