About this property

Whispering Pines! 25 miles to Yosemite + 9 miles to Mariposa!

Our home is very private and spacious and is located about 9 miles from downtown Mariposa and 25 miles to the Arch Rock entrance of Yosemite. It's nestled in the Midpines hills but has easy paved access to highway 140.

Our space is designed for gathering, fun, and relaxation! With a pool table, foosball table, games, puzzles, and more, we have something for everybody!

We can typically be onsite to greet you. If for some reason we are unavailable to meet you, we will be available online to answer any questions and ensure you have a wonderful stay.

The neighborhood is very quiet and nestled on 7 acres in Midpines, CA. There is ample lounge space outside and a seasonal creek that runs the length of the property in the rainy season.

Yosemite Wilderness Gem

Our family of 8 enjoyed our stay at Whispering Pines. The house was large enough to accommodate our group with foosball and a pool table to pass the time along with plenty of games. It was a great location for the family wedding we were attending.

Spacious, excellent location in Midpines

We had a great stay with our group of two couples and an infant with tons of space to spare. The location in Midpines is about an hour drive (without traffic) to Yosemite Valley locations, which was the main target of the trip during our Spring visit. The balance of distance from the park and also near enough to conveniences was ideal. Location also convenient about 15 minutes from restaurants in Mariposa. We stopped at a larger grocery store in Oakhurst on our drive in which was great. Favorite local spots were June Bug Cafe, 1850 Brewery, and The Grove (our overall favorite). House was well stocked with essentials (oil, salt/spices) and was very clean with provided soap/shampoo, which was a plus. The hosts’ communication and website was great! Overall highly recommend and would happily return with a larger group to experience Yosemite in a different season

Beautiful home

One of the few homes we've found that was even more beautiful than in the photos. Everything was spotless. Charissa couldn't have been quicker to respond to every question we had. Loved the pool table and selection of games in the home because it is a quiet area. So enjoyed our family time in the evenings, relaxing after an active day in Yosemite. Highly recommend this home!

Morel foraging in Midpines

My 4 brothers flew in from around the country to join me in a search for morels in recent burn zones around Yosemite. We got skunked this year (compared with bonanzas on some prior trips), but our accommodations were excellent and Midpines and Mariposa are charming.

Whispering Pines.

My family and I loved this home, Charissa & Patrick we’re great and made checking in and out very easy. Yosemite was only an hour away, and the nearest town and Merced River were only several miles away. The home is beautiful and nicely secluded. We couldn’t have asked for a greater first experience to Yosemite.

Wonderful property for relaxing stay outside Yosemite

We had an excellent time staying at this property during our visit to Yosemite! Communication with the owner was quick, check-in was easy, and checkout was also very straightforward and easy. The home is very spacious, with a very large loft/4th bedroom. It's on a property with various fruit and nut trees and during wet periods would have a creek running through it (although due to the time of year and the dry year it was dry when we were there). It is located about 30-40 minutes from the park entrance (total of about 1 hour from Yosemite Valley and Curry Village), so it was a good location for heading into the park each day. It's only 15 minutes from Mariposa. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend the place to others visiting Yosemite!

Perfect get away location

My friends and I needed a place to stay while we visited Yosemite. The home is great for 8 people to sleep comfortably and have space for many activities. The home is incredibly clean and has modern appliances. Has all the pots and pans with cooking utensils. The grill works great. Parking is great for 4 cars. Bathrooms are newly renovated and the water is hot! Heating and ac is quick and efficient. Pool table and foos ball were fun to use. Nice dining areas. Comfy couch! I would highly recommend this for a group of 2 families or a group of friends. Only 30 minute drive to Yosemite.
