We stayed for 4 nights in this beautiful, clean property. The house was located amidst green hills and was very peaceful and serene. We especially loved watching the birds visit the feeder in the backyard, thoughtfully placed by the owner. The house itself was very clean, spacious, and thoughtfully decorated. The owner has provided toys for toddlers and young kids, which was great, as we traveled with a 16-month-old toddler. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything one may need during the stay. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful, family-friendly retreat.

A beautiful home! Very quiet and secluded. It was very clean, spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need for making meals.

We spent our days exploring Yosemite and evenings relaxing on the homes beautiful deck. We highly recommend!

COZY and BEAUTIFUL
My family loved the place, very clean and comfortable, wish we could have stayed longer. Beds were extremely comfy and the decking outside was very nice.
Our family was visiting us and we took them to Yosemite.
We stayed in this place for 3 nights and 4 days; it was a great place to stay, very clean and well decorated.
Whole family enjoyed the stay including our young kids.
The owner responds promptly for the emails, we would definitely stay here again for next Yosemite trip!!

This house was perfect for our family of four. It was well equipped, including beach towels, a cooler and everything else we needed. Yvonne was so kind to turn the ac to a cooler setting for us when we felt too warm.
Our stay at the Oak Rock Hideaway was absolutely perfect. Yvonne and Stan were wonderful hosts—warm, helpful, and always respectful of our privacy. We also loved meeting Gus Gus the horse! The house itself was incredibly comfortable and beautifully maintained, with everything we could possibly need thoughtfully provided. I especially appreciated the kid-friendly touches, like beach towels, plates, bowls, and cups for our toddler. The entire space was spotless, and the furniture was clearly cared for and very comfortable. Overall, this was a fantastic experience and I can’t recommend staying here highly enough.

We are from the area and needed a place to stay to take care of some family matters. The house was clean and well equipped with all of the comforts of home. It is also in a beautiful location with a great view of the lovely mountains.

Thank you! We're so glad that you enjoyed you stay at Oak Rock Hideaway. Nice to hear that you were able to relax and enjoy the views and peaceful setting after a long day.
This house was perfect for our short stay in Miraposa. It was a great location for visiting Yosemite and just a short drive to restaurants. The house was very clean and was well stocked with everything we needed! The instructions for check in and out were clearly displayed and very helpful! We would love to stay here again if ever back in the area!

What makes this property unique
Easy access to Yosemite, a quiet mountain setting, and beautiful night skies make Oak Rock Hideaway the perfect place to get-away and relax. It is situated far enough out to be peaceful and relaxing, but close enough (10 minutes) to be able to run into our quaint little town of Mariposa.
