About this property

Stunning VIEWS & Private, Yosemite Gold Rush Ranch

Our Yosemite home is just 22 miles from West Entrance to Yosemite National Park driving along the scenic Merced River. Our peaceful and very private nine acre property has expansive views of the Sierras. The home is perfect for accommodating a family on vacation, but cozy enough for a couples weekend. With three full baths it's easy to get ready for your daily adventures in Yosemite...although you might never want to leave the property. Come and enjoy the seclusion!

Our beautiful 2 bedroom 3 bathroom home sits on top of a ridge on a nine acre lot filled with oak trees. As you step on the back deck, you will have unobstructed views of the Sierras with no neighbors in sight. It's peaceful and quiet up here - just rabbits and deer wandering about. The red barn stands peacefully in the middle of the property.

Inside the house, the great room overlooks the Sierras with postcard views through large windows. A Sonos sound system lets you relax to your music as you watch the sun rise over the mountains. Roku TV in guest mode lets you sign into your own streaming services through high speed Starlink Internet.

If cooking is your thing, the home has a brand new kitchen with all new appliances and cookware. We have fridge, stove, dishwasher, toaster, pots, pans, cups, plates, utensils, InstantPot, Rice cooker, and a BBQ grill. Love coffee? We have Oxo burr coffee grinder, Hario pour over setup, mokapot and a Ninja coffee maker.

There’s a bathroom with stand-in shower right off living room for quick showers. The second bedroom has two twin beds and an attached bathroom with bath tub and a shower. The master suite has a king bed with a bath tub. With three full baths, your entire group can get ready for the day or quickly unwind for the evening.

A large deck wraps around the house with space to hang out. Take in the sunrise over Yosemite in the morning from couple of large and cozy hammocks. Or watch the evening light slowly fade away into darkness. See the stars blanket the night sky and the Milky Way...

We have a heat pump that keeps the house cool in summer and warm in winter. It's powered by solar and Tesla Powerwall battery. Even in a power outage, you have peaceful, quiet power that will keep you comfortable. There's also a wood stove in the great room if you want warmth with the ambiance.

There's a level 2 EV charger next to the barn to get your EV charged up and ready for your adventure the next day.

Sleeping arrangement:

Bedroom 1 (Master) has king size bed and its own bathroom and closet.

Bedroom 2 has two twin beds with its own bathroom and closet. Note that the 2nd bedroom is not private. You have to walk through the 2nd bedroom to reach the Master Bedroom. So the home is suited more for a single family than multiple families vacationing together.

The Living Room has a Queen sofa bed and comes with bedding for a good night sleep.

Exterior Security Cameras:
We have two security cameras, one looking out from the front of the house to monitor the driveway, and a second one near the gate at the entrance to the property.

Comfortable house
The house size was very nice. But oddly you had to walk through one bedroom to get to the master bedroom. In an attempt to be helpful, I guess, the host left notes all over the house. Unfortunately, it felt like I had gone off to college and come home and mom was leaving me notes about the house rules. The property itself was nice with an amazing view, but the neighborhood was a little rundown with junk vehicles, etc. in the yards.

Yosemite vacation
House was very clean and comfortable. We loved watching the sunsets each evening in the back yard - absolutely stunning! The property owners provided a lot of useful information and were easy to communicate with. I would definitely stay here again.

A lovely stay during our trip to Yosemite
The house is beautiful, comfortable, well stocked, and surrounded by nature with amazing views. It’s an easy drive up the 140 to the Arch Rock entrance to Yosemite, and the gold rush town of Mariposa is very close by as well. Highly recommend!

Great property with thoughtful details
Great stay, property is full of thoughtful details and is quiet and secluded with a view. Conveniently located, not too far from the park. Hosts were extremely responsive and obviously put a lot of care into the place. Will definitely be staying here again.

About the host

Hosted by Rekha & Shyam Subramanyan

Host profile image
Shyam and I live in the Bay Area area and love the outdoors. California has some great national parks and we visit them multiple times a year with our three boys to hike, backpack, and watch and photograph wildlife. We host two homes on Airbnb - this one near Yosemite and the second one just outside Lassen National Park. When you stay at our home, you will see landscape and wildlife photos that our family took over the years.

Why they chose this property

The little town of Midpines has been our favorite staging area for our Yosemite adventures and we bought a home in 2018 to make our trips more convenient. Our home sits on a high ridge along Highway 140 which is the only all-season highway into the park. The 22 miles drive along 140 to the park goes along the beautiful Merced river as it snakes into Yosemite Valley.

What makes this property unique

Every room has a view of the sierras. The 9 acre property is private and no neighbors in sight. You will have access to all of the property. During the day, you can spend time taking in the views. At night you can enjoy the dark skies with views of the Milky Way.
