Great location and easy to get to Yosemite. Anthony was very responsive. However, the house is very dated and not as clean as you would want. And please, get some new towels! Only 2 towels were provided per person and they were paper thin. Loved the hot tub.

There were 6 beach towels in addition to 2 towels per person. I am sorry we were not notified that you could not find more or we would have gladly provided them. We did just purchase some new towels I noticed they are also thin. Thank you for the feedback regarding your preference. They were also very thin. If you had an issue with them we would gladly have provided more and even new ones upon request. It is a vintage home. That is clearly stated and represented in photos. We continue to upgrade a number of items each year. Thank you for staying.
Spacious, quiet rustic family cabin with 3 bedrooms and 2 updated baths, featuring a king bed and two queen beds. Enjoy shuffleboard, foosball, a hot tub, and a cozy living room with plenty of space for the family. The older kitchen is charming and fully equipped with a full-size refrigerator and dishwasher. We loved our stay, the quaint western town of Mariposa, and the easy 35-minute drive to Yosemite.
We really enjoyed our two day trip to Yosemite. Anthony was a great host and super responsive. The place was very neat and clean and was exactly like the photos showed. The location was great as it was less than an hour to get to YNP.
Super place with great hosts. We stayed one night as a stop in our travels. Nice AC on a warm eve. Comfy living room couch for relaxing. Hot tub on the deck was a plus. Quick walk or drive to restaurants and downtown.
This was such a cute place and so well equipped! Our stay was absolutely fantastic and we would definitely rent here again. Loved the foosball and shuffleboard not to mention how close it is to the YARTS stop for Yosemite!
Our first impression was “Wow!” The house was sparkling clean and spacious (with a cozy feel). We enjoyed the fully equipped kitchen, easy to use air conditioning and awesome hot tub. The outdoor spaces were lovely. The location was convenient to town. The host answered questions quickly and provided a lot of extras that were such a nice surprise and treat. It was easy to love this beautiful, welcoming place!
The home is clean, spacious, and ideally located (~20 minute walk to historic Mariposa). We really enjoyed our time here and in nearby Yosemite National Park. Will return!
Really nice and cozy, really fun rooms with games and tv for everyone and awesome view from the balcony! Close to town Incase of emergencies and supermarket access
They were so accommodating, I had to cancel my first dates due to illness and they made it possible to move to another day. I was in constant contact with them and they were so nice. They don’t deserve at 5 star rating, but they do deserve a ten star rating!!!
My family traveled to Mariposa for a wedding and a visit to Yosemite. We found this cabin to be perfect for our needs. Beautifully furnished—rustic but also very comfortable. The master suite was spacious with a large private deck. Large, open kitchen and living room. Great location on the edge of town, walking distance to most restaurants and shops. We would definitely stay here again!
The house was clean and comfortable. Close to Yosemite. The drive-way can be a little sketchy, we came in on motorcycles. Nothing to bad, just be careful if your on full size motorcycles. All in all great place.
Nice cabin with knotty pine paneling and gorgeous pine floors. Set up for a weekend stay. Only two towels in master bath with no spares. Not a dresser or bureau in the place so all your stuff has to stay in your luggage. Well located and the hot tub felt great after a day of schlepping around Yosemite.

Thanks for the suggestion! We left 6 towels for 3 people that were listed and there are spare towels in the ottoman. We would have been happy to get more if needed. I will look into some dressers.
We sure had a nice stay in Mariposa this week. Our rental was easy to find and in a convenient location one block away from the main highway. Its the upstairs unit of a duplex, but completely separate and quiet. After a bit of a challenge backing the car into the carport, there were three stairs up to the front door and also a ramp so getting our things indoors was easy. Inside we had a large front room with full kitchen and living area where we found everything needed to fix meals and relax. Nice TV and solid WiFi for internet access, plus mini-split heating and cooling units with remotes in all the rooms to keep the temperature comfortable. The bedrooms have that rustic cabin feel, with an array of good pillows and warm bedding. Both bathrooms had plenty of hot water and more towels than we needed. We also really enjoyed sitting in the hot tub in the evenings, and having our morning coffee out on the deck. There was time for competiton on the foosball table and a shuffleboard game available too. We hope to go back again next year!
Well...I don't want to talk this home up too much, because then it will always be sold out! Super cute and comfortable. Hot tub is a great extra. Games! All kitchen appliances! AC works great (didn't need heat). Parking was good for two cars. Close to town. I hope to be able to book again.
