Very cozy comfortable home with great views. Kitchen was very adequate for preparing meals and large enough to hold all of the cook’s “helpers”. We loved the back deck and enjoyed the hot tub in the evenings. The drive to Yosemite National Park was easy.The Host was very easy and quick to answer any questions we had and even let us know about a meteor shower that was coming while we were there! We would very highly recommend staying in this lovely home.

We had a great stay at this home. The house was super clean and had a very well stocked kitchen. It is perched on a quiet hillside with beautiful views and overall was extremely peaceful. We will likely be back here for another trip!

Perfect Yosemite Retreat!

Loved every minute of our stay. The views in every direction were amazing. Was a great home base for going to Yosemite. So peaceful and relaxing to return to in the afternoons. The whirlpool tub was wonderful. We also enjoyed how close it was to Mariposa, with many great restaurants. Kitchen was well-equipped. Beds comfy. Our host was very responsive and helpful.

Good base location for Yosemite

We had an enjoyable few days at the house while we visited nearby Yosemite. It was great to have a hill that was very quiet and private. There are a few other houses nearby, but we rarely saw anyone else. Great nearby gas and groceries. Communication was prompt and clear.

Hidden Gem in Mariposa

Akila was a great host and responds quickly. The house is clean and well organized. It has everything you need to enjoy your stay comfortably. Very close to restaurants, gas, and grocery. Great base camp to Yosemite Arch Rock entrance on highway 140. We will definitely come back in our next Yosemite adventure.

We loved the house! It was clean and so well organized. The pool table and hot tube were awesome. One of our favorite things was to watch the wildlife visit the water feature in the back yard. So many birds! Nice quite neighborhood. We would definitely stay again.

David and Sharon - Thank you for being exceptional guests. Our house was spotless and well taken care of during your stay. I am so glad that you liked the wildlife visiting the water feature in the backyard. We often see a wide variety of birds, wild turkeys and deer visit the place, and it's so much fun to watch them play. I hope you were able to see the star filled night sky as well. Again, thank you for your kind review, and we would love to host you again during your next visit!
