We enjoy staying at the bungalow, it is clean and have well equipped kitchen .The property is close to the entrance to the national park .will recomnend to friends
Owners have spent a lot of time to give you all the little things that make the stay, nice. We didn'stay long enough to do all the things they have to do around their place. Thank you for a nice stay
Awesome property. We’re welcomed by a buck and a baby deer. Great location , good value, comfortable , clean, would stay here again. Nine large turkeys out our back door as we left .
This is a peaceful place away from home. We had quiet evenings, morning coffee with wild turkeys and everything we needed. I slept like a baby here and would highly recommend this spot to anyone going up for a visit to the Yosemite area.
We used it as our home base to take winter hikes in Yosemite. It was lovely! The single tiny downside was not being able to leave our very old dog in the home while we were away. But overall a very comfortable home.
It was a perfect location for Yosemite. The house was mid clean as the bathrooms were a bit dirty(both showers) and there is an ant issue in the kitchen. But the hosts had loads of games and entertainment and the property was lovely.
We appreciated that we could drop off our groceries before the check in time so that we could head to Yosemite! The home was very nicely decorated and comfortable. The beds were comfortable, too. We enjoyed watching some of the DVD's and loved the welcome snacks. The notebook was also helpful. Our host was very responsive. Thank you!
Great place to stay and only 40 minutes to Yosemite! After a long day hiking, it was awesome to come “home” and sit on the front deck and listen and watch all the different birds and relax in privacy. It was super clean, comfortable and spacious and close to some good restaurants in Mariposa. Would absolutely stay again!
Beautiful place that we enjoyed very much. There is so much to do in the area, I didn't have the opportunity to relax on the property as much as I would have liked. Very inviting place and outdoor area. Was able to spend a few evenings in the hot tub which was very relaxing after long days of exploring and hiking.
Excellent location and house. We were here for Yosemite and this was a great base of operations for the humans. We had some questions once we got there and the response was immediate while everything else was clearly communicated by the owners either in communications prior to the stay and on site. Would stay again in a second. Thank you!
We loved our stay at the Midpines House. The house has everything you need in the kitchen, the beds are comfy and supportive, and there are thoughtful touches throughout. We loved having our evening meal and wine on the deck with the cute Solar lights. It was a good basecamp for the Arched Rock entrance to Yosemite. We went to Mariposa Grove as well. The hot tub was great after a day of hiking. We hope to come back!
The house is about 30 min from Yosemite's El Portal Rd (Arch Rock) entrance. It was a very well appointed, comfortable, clean house in a nice neighborhood. We would certainly stay there again when visiting the area.

We had a wonderful stay at the Midpine cottage! The place was clean, beautifully decorated and full of thoughtful touches! Kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans and utensils. There are several spots around the property to relax- we especially enjoyed morning coffee on the front porch. Jerry and Courtney were very responsive host. They even set out a bed, bowls and treats for our puppies which we really appreciate! Highly recommend this place and would love to come back.
My family and I made this place our base for our Yosemite trip, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We loved how cozy the interior of the home was, and how close to nature we were. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well-equipped and hot tub was clean. On top of that, we found all we need provided for in the accommodations - ranging from dishwashing pods, washing detergent and dryer wool, pots and pans, spices for our cooking just to name a few.There was a small hiccup where the barbecue ran out of gas. The hosts were very quick to respond, which we are grateful for. Overall a very enjoyable and relaxing stay!
Great location and stunning property. Stayed here and visited Yosemite. Excellent facilities and a relax in the hot tub was just perfect. Would highly recommend this property

Why they chose this property
We love being close to the charming mountain town of Mariposa with all the shopping and dining options you could want, while still being just minutes from Yosemite National Park. our wooded acres are so peaceful and quiet. We regularly enjoy wild turkeys, white tail deer, quail and even the occasional California Black Bear. We also have a seasonal creek during the winter if we've had good rainfall, and we get a few pretty snows every year.
What makes this property unique
Enjoy our beautiful decks for your morning coffee or a special meal with friends or family. Have a soak in our jetted hot tub after a beautiful day exploring Yosemite, or nap in our hammocks enjoying the sounds of the forest. We also have both a traditional firepit for guests to enjoy late fall through early spring when wildfire danger is low. During the warmer months, guests can enjoy our charming gas firepit which is safe to use anytime of year. Our home is well stocked with everything you might need and is beautifully appointed, clean and cozy. Come and make wonderful memories soon!
