    It was a beautiful home with an outside patio you can enjoy your surroundings. The donkeys that always greeted us when we came back from hiking. They are adorable. They had a folder to help us with where to eat and what to try out.

    This place is a gem! It's located in a lovely spot, surrounded by greenery. The local supermarket is not too far away & more importantly, so is the entrance to Yosemite National Park. The accommodation is well-appointed, with all of our needs met....

This special house has no need for an alarm clock as you will be awakened by the joyful braying of our two mini donkeys, Shadow and Frosty. We are 30 miles to Yosemite's Arch Entrance. It is a beautiful drive to the park following the Merced River. You will have access to a newer built home that shares 5 acres with the host's. There is parking at the house. You can sit on the front porch and enjoy beautiful wooded suroundings while you drink your morning coffe.
My wife and I built our home in 2007 and officially moved to Mariposa in 2014. We were fortunate enough to be able to build these cabins so people can come experience for a short time what we are blessed to live everyday. I am semi retired and look forward to slowing down a little and exploring more of where I call home. As hosts we want your visit to be memorable and relaxing. We are here to help in any way we can. We also respect your privacy and will follow your lead for as much or as least interaction as you like.
Peaceful quiet neighborhood in a wooded setting. Beautiful sunsets. Parking is available right in front of the house. All roads to the house are paved with the exception of the last short stretch of road which is a well maintained gravel driveway.
