About this property

Cozy Cottage Retreat, Close to Yosemite, Beautiful Views, Hot Tub & More!

This charming private cottage with beautiful views of the mountains is a great getaway for a couple or small family to relax and explore. You'll enjoy the private "country" setting and the proximity to the several Gold Rush towns of the Mariposa area. Just over an hour, through our "Wild and Scenic" Merced River Canyon, is Yosemite National Park. Our home is a great place to make memories, and a local professional photographer is available to capture them.


This cottage has a 1 bedroom with a full loft, which looks out through the large 2 story windows to the mountains. There is a fully stocked kitchen with all modern appliances. We offer basic spices, coffee and tea.

During the cold months, you can enjoy a nice glass of wine or hot cup of chocolate snuggled up to the wood burning stove. The wood for the stove is always fully stocked. It is close to the Badger Pass winter sports area and ice skating in the park and Tenaya Lodge. We offer his and hers snowshoes and snow sleds for a fun day in the snow.

The bedroom and loft are appointed with comfortable queen beds and a sofa that turns into a very comfortable double bed (There are reviews verifying the comfort of the bed.). The towels and linens are high quality soft cotton. The loft has a comfortable sitting area to read and relax. The library provides a wide variety of books, games and puzzles.

From the living area you can walk out onto the private deck with seating for 6+, a gas grill and a hot tub. The hot tub is right off the deck, which you can relax and soak up the incredible view of the sierras or star gaze in the evening.

All year we provide a herb garden and in the summer we grow yummy tomatoes for the guests to enjoy.

We also have a beautiful home on the same property, which is private and separate from the cottage. The home can be rented with the cottage for a big get together. To view the home please see 779053.

Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Brian & Susan Hunter

Host profile image
Living so close to Yosemite we wanted to share such a beautiful and peaceful place with others and so we purchase this charming cottage. We have traveled all over the US, Mexico and Europe and feel fortunate to call Mariposa our home.

Why they chose this property

This is a perfect secluded location just minutes from downtown Mariposa and a short drive into Yosemite Park through Scenic Merced River Canyon. You can sit and lounge on the deck and enjoy the views and wildlife. Sit in the hot tub at night after a day of hiking in the park and enjoy the stars. During the winter time, you can snuggle on the couch and enjoy a fire in the wood stove.
