The host was very responsive when I had questions. I loved the location, as it was peaceful and quiet, just what we needed. The beds were very comfortable and the home was much roomier than expected. We had a wonderful stay!

Thank you, I’m excited you noticed how comfortable the beds are. I did a lot of research, and we chose identical Saatva mattresses for all three of the king-size beds. When there are multiple couples, I didn’t want just one to get the “good bed”.
Great place to stay! No complaints at all. We will be booking this place again.

Liked: Communication, location
Disliked: Check-in
We rented this house for 3 nights. Our party had three adults and one child. The house is fairly large, with a nice layout. Beds and furnishings are comfortable, and everything worked properly. This is an older property with some wear and tear. It could use a good deep cleaning and some upgrades. We had a significant problem at check in, but it was handled quickly to our satisfaction. Location is a few miles from Mariposa, about an hour drive to both the Arch Rock and South entrances to Yosemite NP. The house worked well for us.

We’re glad the layout, comfortable furnishings, and location worked well for your group. We appreciate your patience with the check-in issue and are glad we were able to arrange for the cleaning concerns to be addressed promptly. Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding the condition of the home, as well as for noting that the house worked well for your stay overall.
House was super clean and just as advertised. All king size beds with plenty of room and great location just outside of Mariposa. Host was very responsive and great to deal with!

great location!
tucked in on an already quiet mountain road this house situates you only a couple miles from downtown and everything you could possibly need. right down the street from county fairgrounds and your last stop before yosemite. very accommodating for large families or 3 small groups of travelers.

From the Owner: "It really is a lovely area. Thank you so much!"
This home is secure, clean, and comfortable. If we had more time here, we would have utilized the kitchen more. Only 5 minutes away from Mariposa that has everything you need.

Great Experience
Beautiful home located just outside of town and amongst the trees. The home was well appointed and very comfortable. The large outdoor area and covered patio provided a wonderful space to visit during the day and to take in the spectacular night. Check in was easy and communication with the owner was excellent. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this property.

Amazing property! I loved all the things provided for children. It had everything a pack n play, high chair, toys, books, nugget couch. It was great! Also loved how beautiful the property itself was. A great escape from the city.

Cute and Roomy
Our family of 8 stayed for 3 nights and loved the cottage. It was attractive, filled with light, and had plenty of room for us. Everything worked and it was stocked with anything that you could need. Our kids especially loved the books, games and puzzles. The area is remote enough that you can hang out at night without seeing any lights, but the town of Mariposa is just a few minutes down the road. We shared out mornings with deer and rabbits who were wandering by. Driving to Yosemite is a scenic adventure with either of the two entrances that you can chose as your destination. We can't recommend this place enough.
Response from VrboOwner on 15 Jul 2025
From the owner: "Thank you so much for your feedback! That high level of comfort in your stay is exactly what we always strive for. We are always especially happy when children enjoy “Cousin Camp” and are glad to have them."
We were staying in Mariposa for my daughter's wedding and were very happy with the home. The communication with Carla was excellent from the start. She was responsive, clear, proactive and always kind. The house was impeccably clean. Each bedroom was spacious and had comfortable king size beds. We sat outside on the patio each morning with our coffee as we planned our day. And the location was convenient to everything we needed. I would definitely rent this home again if I return to the Yosemite area.
