A path extends off the side of the deck to where a seven-person hot tub resides. Carbon neutral cabin with fast Wi-Fi and board games for the perfect getaway to enjoy with family and friends!
The retreat was very nice spacious and very well equipped for our stay. It took us about 1 1/4 to get to Yosemite valley and 1hour to Mariposa grove. The house was a little more remotely located than we expected. However we did enjoy the town of Mariposa 15 min away. Nice dining options and a good grocery.
Beautiful area, feels truly private, nice to see so many stars. Peter is super prompt with communication, he made sure the stay was comfortable and easy.
This is a wonderful property set back in a quiet corner. It offers all the amenities we needed to make a comfortable stay. The view from the back deck and hot tub are beautiful. We will definitely keep this property bookmarked for future visits.
Perfect location before getting into Yosemite. Space was open and we loved the layout of the house. The fireplace was such a sweet addition to warm up the kitchen and living room. We enjoyed the hot tub and it was the perfect place to see the moon come up from the mountain and the VIEW! We were able to see the snow top covered mountains. Everything was perfect and we were able to enjoy the property with our own privacy. The last bit of the ride to the house is unpaved dirty road but we had no issues getting there even under the rain. Parking was plenty! Thanks for bosting us!
We loved Peterâs place for our trip to the Yosemite MARIPOSA Grove area. The house was appealingly decorated and equipped with all we needed, immaculate, and beds VERY comfortable. We enjoyed the lovely views during morning coffee, reasonableDrives to the places of interest we visited all day, enjoyed family meals back at the house and stargazed in the hot tub each evening. Was all we hoped and more! Thank you Peter!
We had an amazing stay! The fenced yard was perfect for our dog to run around and play safely, giving us peace of mind. The house was clean, well-stocked, and comfortable, with plenty of space for everyone. The location was convenient, and the host was friendly and responsive. Highly recommend this property to anyone traveling with pets. Weâll definitely be back!
It was pleasing to stay there. We had everything we needed, the Beds were comfortable, and the yoga mat and space in the living room were a plus.
Also, I had planned to bring a dog with us but we didn't if we had a dog I am sure he would have a great time too!!
The only negative was a little far from Yosemite.
That's all. Thanks to Peter for responding to our question quickly.
We thought this was a very nice place! Our grouo had 2 adult couples and the layout worked very well for us. It was very clean! The views were beautiful! We didnt get to use the hot tub or corn hole boards as we just didnt take the time. We were staying there so we could visit Yosemite. It was about 50 mintues to the Arch Rock gate. We did eat in Mariposa twice and it was maybe 15 minutes to get into town. Overall, we really enjoyed this property and would go back! Thank you, Peter!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I booked this location to be close to Mariposa and Yosemite. It was the ideal place for us to have access to what we needed and be far enough outside the city lights to feel like we were in a wild area. The house and grounds are wonderful. Everything worked perfectly. Our favorite amenities were the large deck with ping pong table and the cornhole setup. The string of lights on a timer let us finish our game after dark! We unplugged the lights to achieve total darkness for viewing the Milky Way from the deck. So many stars! Highly recommend this rental.
The Retreat was a nice weekend getaway for our group. The amenities like ping pong, hot tub, and board games let us all hang out and chill after a long day in Yosemite. ~15min from Mariposa to try the local shops and restaurants.
The host was really responsive and answered very timely.
Very spacious, comfortable property in secluded location. Perfect place to relax, with large deck, hot tub, bbq, great for star gazing. Also good for Yosemite (about an hourâs drive). Would definitely come back if we are in the area again.
A lovely clean spacious property and modern too
We had a lovely stay here so peaceful and a relaxing jacuzzi too
Thank you for making our stay as relaxing and no stress as possible
The stay was overall great! Communication with owner was standard, we didnât run into any major issues during our trip. We werenât there a ton during the day as we were at Yosemite most of the time. The only issue we ran into was the temperature. While away it was set to 85 F and it took hours for the temperature to go down even a few degrees. Weâd go to bed in 77 F and once we left the eco mode would bring it back to 85F. My only suggestion is to let the guests set the temperature during their stay or decrease the eco mode temperature to below 80.
Sehr schöne Location, absolut ruhige Lage, mit allem was man benötigt um entspannen zu können.
Die Terrasse lÀdt zum grillen ein (Grill und Gas vor Ort)
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefĂŒhlt.
We did not have the best experience at this property due to the cleanliness of the kitchen and the floors in the main living area.
Let me point out by saying the bedrooms and bathrooms were clean. Upon arrival at the house at 330, one window and small door were left opened. It was 112 outside, inside of the house was HOT at 89 degrees. The thermostat was set at 87. It took until the next day for the home to cool down to 76 degrees and there were no fans in any of the rooms.
We were going to Yosemite so we planned on cooking meals at the house. The kitchen not clean. The utensil door had a large greasy food spill in the silverware. We were only left one hand towel n the kitchen and had to use our bathroom wash clothes and towels. We were made aware that the washing machine was broken, but was being replaced during our stay. When we pointed out that we had no kitchen supplies to clean up after ourselves, Peter did give us supplies, but no attempt was made to clean the kitchen or floors. Peter actually saw the greasy mess in the kitchen drawer and his response was he would give the cleaners feedback. Third day we had ants on the kitchen floor by the pantry. The floors n the living area were so dirty that the bottoms of our feet were black on the first night. We did ask for a refund on the cleaning fee since the house was not clean. Peter didnât feel that was necessary, he blamed it on the elements and rural location. Wish I could post pix of the ants and grease.
We enjoyed our stay at this clean and comfortable home. Thank you for allowing us to bring our dogs. We should have known that this time of year the outside would have lots of burrs and foxtails so we had to keep the dogs in. We will come again a different time of year.
I loved the inside of the house, it was very clean, spacious, and modern. The house is located very remotely, the GPS directions arenât exact, you have to keep driving a few more minutes on the road after it says you arrived. From the photos I didnât notice the outside is all weeds and foxtails. I took my dogs and the foxtails kept getting stuck in their fur. Wish this place had a dog friendly outside area.
Peterâs Property is fab. It is close to Yosemite valley (45-60mins drive). House has lots of board games, spacious rooms & comfy bed. Outdoor Hot tub was so relaxing. Donât need to go anywhere for stargazing you can see them from hot tub/ patio.
