About this house rental
This historic country house was built in 1947. Now this charming 3 bedroom, 2 bath house is a vacation rental. Its is conveniently located directly off the Hwy 140, in Midpines, on your way to Yosemite National park and ten minutes outside of Mariposa.
Upon arriving you will be greeted by an eye appealing rock entry made from local Mariposa slate. The front door enters into a large living room. From both the living room and dining room kitchen areas you can look out the windows and observe the wild life in the meadow across the street. The large farm style kitchen is a great place for everyone to gather in. It is fully equipped for all your cooking needs. There is even a large beautiful fireplace to enjoy during the winter months.
In the back patio area there is a BBQ for outside cooking and dining. There is also a fenced yard to the side of the side of the house with an herb garden.
This country vacation rental is easy to find and is perfectly located to many attractions in the area. Yosemite is 19 miles from the house, about 40 minutes away. There is even a bus stop within walking distance from the house that can take you to and from Yosemite Park. In the spring months the Zyfer River Rafting is close by too! Mariposa is only 7 miles away. There are many cute shops and dining to enjoy. Also don't forget about the local museum and music on the green in the park during the summer. Mariposa also offers an adventurous zipline. Are you into dirt bikes and ATV's? You can bring those too. The house offers plenty of parking and the forest service trails are within a mile of the house with hours of outdoor fun trails to explore.

Great location. House was clean and spacious for our party of 7. There is the road proximity and noise but nothing horrible.

The central air conditioner in this house is LEGIT - after a hot day of hiking it was amazing coming home to a cooled house. House was also expansive with three big bedrooms and two full separate bathrooms. Was amply stocked with towels and had a nice big living area with TV that connects to Disney+ etc. and the washer dryer was right in the middle of the hosue instead of in a garage or something annoying. Convenient drive to Yosemite and also to downtown Mariposa, with the U shaped driveway for easy in-and-out. Also has an interesting provenance! There are photos adorning the walls showing that it was constructed as a cafe initially (which explains the amazingly large kitchen area with giant island, tons of wine glasses, cooking supplies and a bar with stools) and a really well written little book on the coffee table that explains the history of Midpines. We may come back again next summer for another stay it was perfect for two families as one of the 3 bedrooms has a bunk bed. Hostess was also the nicest lady - so responsive to our questions.

We stayed 6 days really getting to explore Yosemite. This place is only 30 minutes from the entrance to Yosemite allowing you to go North to Tioga road, east to the valley, or south to glacier pass or Mariposa Grove. I recommend grabbing groceries on your way before Midpines, as prices get more expensive. This place was perfect for what we were looking for except for the ants. We were warned from the owner before we got there that she has been dealing with ants and to make sure to keep the counters clean and put food in zip lock bags if opened. We did this, however, the ant problem was much worse. They were everywhere, bathroom, living room, bedroom.... In the owner's defense, she was shocked by how bad it was and offered to send a cleaner out during our stay, which we declined. She seemed very committed to treating the problem and was very apologetic. The ants are the only reason I took off stars for our stay and for cleanliness. I'm hopeful, that she follows thru because, besides the ants, this place is a hidden gem in terms of size and convenience to Yosemite, which is one of my favorite place on earth. Future reviewers should be able to give people an update to whether the situation is fixed. Honestly, I'd rent from the owner again given how she responded to the situation.
