Perfect accommodation to visit Yosemite

We spend 4 days at the property and really enjoyed our stay! The house is loaded with anything we needed! The cooling system works well and kept us chill during the heat wave. Bedrooms and bathrooms are nice and well equipped as well! Would definitely recommend

amazing house, same as renter

Me and my family decides at the last minutes for our trip to Yosemite. The house is clean and very beautiful. The most importantly, provides everything we need. We stayed during winter, however the house is surprisingly warm. Terri also provides many info/interesting spot around the house. During our stay, we accidentally broke a lamp but Terri is very kind with it and being very understading, and provide all the help we need to recover the charge. Best experience. Definitely be back in next spring!

Beautiful Setting

The cabin was equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Very clean and roomy. The back patio has fantastic boulders providing a beautiful setting as well as privacy. Set on 3 acres, the meadow surrounding the property was lush with a stream at the properties edge. We loved the location. We had an event to attend at Mariposa Fairgrounds, the cabin was close enough to walk to the party.

Overall good experience

The inside of the property was clean and met all of our needs for 4 adults (2 comfy beds and 2 full baths) with nice kitchen, dining and living areas. The outside, surrounding area left much to be desired, but was ok for a short stay if you plan to spend your time indoors.

No real heat in dead of winter

House was clean, plenty of room. But tv was for a technically savy person, not me. Only space heaters which wasn't adequate for dead of winter in a 1940s 2x4

Excellent stay at Buckeye & Boulders

This place was perfect for a family with kids. Lots to do in the house (books, games, internet) and lots of property to walk around on. Fully appointed, nearby grocery and restaurants, less than an hour to Yosemite valley. I really hope we get to stay here again!!

Great long weekend in mariposa

This place is more spacious than it looks. The kitchen as a ton of counter space, the laundry area is large, and the rooms are also big. The beds are comfortable too. The only con for me is that the guest bathroom shower is very small. Other than that, this place was great. Lots of extra blankets and towels, and a VHS collection I haven’t seen in 20 years. Fun games and toys for small children, the backyard is also pleasant and easy to spend time in. The heaters all work well and over all the house is cozy and comfortable.

Outside is trashy

The outside of the rental looks like a shanty town. It was very hot when we arrived, 96F. There is no central AC. It’s a large attic fan but it was not on. It took all night to cool the house. The tv, dvd, & firestick did not work. Good thing there was Uno!

Cute Cabin about an hour from Yosemite

This adorable cabin’s setting was fairly isolated and remote which may be too rural for some travelers. Cabin interior was roomy, rustic and cozy. The property manager was very prompt and replied quickly to any questions. We enjoyed bird and deer watching daily from the covered patio. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Great Mariposa Spot

The house was just as described and fit our family perfectly. The kids liked climbing the boulders and playing in the yard and it was easy to access town. The owner responded quickly to questions before our arrival. We would definitely stay again if we get back to the area.
