Great home for families visiting Yosemite

We enjoyed this beautiful, comfortable home on our family trip to Yosemite. It is close to white water rafting and the National park. The kids loved the game room and well-stocked collection of board games.

Wonderful Gateway to Yosemite!

We had a fantastic time and would have been totally content to spend the entire three days at the home. Everything is well taken care of and the home is beautiful. Outdoor living space was gorgeous and the views were awesome. Our kids favorite part was the game room. Definitely looking forward to our next stay here!

Relaxing stay in Mariposa!

My girlfriends and I had a wonderful stay at this property. Plenty of room and great layout. We enjoyed the sunsets around the firepit, morning coffee on the outdoor couch overlooking the valley, and evenings in the hot tub. Everything was clean, fresh and comfortable. We will be back!

Ecerything was as we expected it to be, and more. The location is beautiful, with a great ciew from the patio and hot tub. The hot tub was ready to use when we arrived, nice and hot and well maintained. The patio is spacious and nicely done. The living room is really big and nice, and then there is the game room with pool and pingpong besides. The kitchen is good, the beds are very comfortable. Overall, highly recommended!

Yosemite vacation

Loved the property but it was advertised as 10 miles from Yosemite but it was not. It was approximately an hour minimum to the gate at the park.

Little slice of Heaven

We so enjoyed our stay at the house. Everything clean and the open floor plan was great. Kitchen was well stocked with what we needed. Nice to have two washers and dryers! Only downfall is the warmth of the game room. We didn't use it very much as it was hot outside. Hot tub was great after long days of hiking and the views were great!

Vacation

The property was very clean and had a wonderful game room to enjoy. A lot of space for everyone. The only problem we had was that there is no shade cover over the front to enjoy the wonderful outside patio they have. I needs a gazebo or something. But I would book this property again.

Yosemite trip

We enjoyed our stay there. It was a convenient location for going into town and going up to the park. We would have spent more time outside the house, but we were there on a hot week. The game room was very hot because of the weather. The house itself was very nice and relaxing. Thank you for sharing it with us. Cathryn Pearson

Worked for us

Four of us stayed and used as base to explore Yosemite. Super close to Mariposa - everything you need there. Decent access to main entrance and south entrance of park. House can comfortably host 6-8 I was frustrated with communication - super cool app and great info provided but my questions / concerns were never answered / addressed (still to date and we have been home for 3 days) Seems very automated (even replies) But no major concerns was a good home base for our trip.

So Much Fun at the Great Yosemite Retreat

My family and I had a wonderful time at this house. The owners provided clear, informative information about the house and the surrounding area. The information about the house was received well in advance of our stay. We used the spa, played table tennis, cornhole, and pool. The house was well furnished and very comfortable. We came for the butterfly festival, it was a blast to see the parade and visit the Mariposa Fairgrounds. This was a great house for families, the wifi was great and everyone had something to do. We will be staying here again in the future with a plan to visit Yosemite. Thank you Jazzy and David for allowing us to rent your beautiful home.

Clean and Great Location

The house was clean. The kitchen lacked some necessities but once I contacted Jazzy she was able to bring us what we needed. The beds were not comfortable and the pillows were very hard. I think that is all to personal preference. The water also backed up in all of the showers. It made it uncomfortable to shower in and very slippery. The location was perfect. The drive to Yosemite was great. Overall the house was great it has a beautiful view and great location.
