Great Place to Stay for Yosemite Visit

We had a great time staying here for our 5-day trip to visit Yosemite. This 2BR apartment was perfect for our group of 4 adults, A great retreat to return to after long days of hiking in the park. The location was good as there were several good restaurants in Mariposa and we were about 45 minutes away from Yosemite Valley. We had a great time and will definitely stay here again the next time we come to the area. Irene was a great host.

Very cute and prevalent butterfly theming, a lot of love went into this home. The water filter was an excellent addition as well. About an hour from Yosemite, straight down 140. Host was nice and accommodating when I wanted to add a day to my stay as well :)
