Family Friendly Farm Stay Near Yosemite

Bring the kids and experience a farm stay they’ll never forget.

Located just 36 miles from Yosemite National Park and 26 miles from Bass Lake, our charming farmhouse sits on 10 private woodland acres in beautiful Mariposa. This is more than a place to sleep — it’s a hands-on farm experience designed to slow down, explore, and make lasting family memories.

Children absolutely love meeting our friendly miniature donkeys, sheep, goats, emus, and water buffalo. As a working farm, guests are welcome to interact with many of the animals, creating the kind of moments you just can’t get in the city. It’s common to see deer wandering through the property, adding to the magic of the mountain setting.

There’s plenty of room for kids to run, explore, and play across all 10 acres. Let them unplug, breathe fresh air, and experience nature up close while you relax and take in the beautiful mountain views.

After a day exploring Yosemite or swimming at Bass Lake, gather around the seasonal fire pit (firewood provided) and enjoy stories, s’mores, and star-filled skies. With little light pollution, the stargazing here is incredible.

Our home is located at the top of the property, giving you privacy while we remain nearby and available if you need anything during your stay. We love sharing our farm and helping families create meaningful, joyful experiences.

Whether you’re hiking in Yosemite, boating at Bass Lake, or simply looking for a peaceful escape where your kids can meet donkeys and roam free, our farm stay offers a unique blend of adventure and relaxation.

Come explore Yosemite — and give your kids a farm experience they’ll be talking about long after the vacation ends.
