About this property

Yosemite Oaks Retreat, Views, Pool & Hot Tub, Game Room, & So Much More!

This property is perfect for families or groups to get away to relax and explore. It is a custom hilltop home on 7 park-like acres with incredible views into the Sierras. Each bedroom is appointed with a queen bed and deck access. 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.

A large slate courtyard separates the free-form pebble tech pool from the jetted hot tub and barbecue area. Just out your second-level bedroom door is a huge wraparound deck, perfect for amazing stargazing.

Inside you'll find tile and hardwood floors throughout. The guest bath includes a large jetted bathtub, while the master bath has a double shower heads and a sitting area. A 50 inch flat screen TV and a cozy wood stove are located in the conversation area. The wood for the stove is always fully stocked for a cold winter’s night.

The sitting room/library offers a peaceful place to read, relax on the soft couch or set outside the door onto the balcony for beautiful views. The library offers a a wide variety of adult and children's books.

For the more active, there's a pool, Jacuzzi, basketball court and an unconditioned game room separate from the house.

In the game room, there is a slate-top pool table, darts, and dice at the bar, as well as plenty of places to hang out. We also offer a large selection of board games and puzzles.

It is close to the Badger Pass winter sports area, ice skating in the park, and Tenaya Lodge. We offer snow sleds for a fun day of playing in the snow.

We also have a charming, cozy cottage on the same property, which is private and separate from the house. The cottage can be rented with the house for a big get-together. To view the cottage, please see 769664.

We had a wonderful stay at this home! We were a group of 8 adults and a few small kids, and there was plenty of space for everyone to sleep and relax comfortably. The house was perfect for a summer weekend, it was hot out, so the pool was a huge hit with both the kids and adults. We also really enjoyed winding down in the hot tub in the evenings.The house was clean, spacious, and well-equipped for a group our size. Everything was just as described, and the hosts made sure we had a smooth and comfortable experience. Would definitely recommend this place for families or groups looking for a fun and relaxing getaway!

A perfect getaway for a big group

I booked both the main house and the cottage for a group of 16 people and it was great. Everything was clean and there was plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen is really well stocked and we were able to prep big group meals without any issues. Overall a really great value and everyone from my group said they would enjoy coming back!

Our favorite vacation stay EVER

Hurry and book this house - you won't regret it at all. It is well-stocked, clean, roomy, and so fun. We felt so spoiled with with the pool and the man cave. Susan was incredibly kind and helped us with a couple vacation questions. Also, this house had a cooler we appreciated since we flew in, but wanted to pack in lunch to Yosemite. We had the BEST time here as a family.
