Cute little place in Mariposa. We stayed with 6 people (4 adults and 2 children) and it worked great. Internet worked great, place was clean and the area was beautiful. Access to Yosemite was good and the price was a little bit cheaper than places close to the park. We were biking up the canyon to Yosemite so we wanted a place at the bottom so this worked perfectly.
