About this property
Midpines Hwy 140 House on your way to Yosemite
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.

Comfort and Charm: Our Family Stay near Yosemite NP
We had a wonderful stay in this quaint home with so much history. It’s a vintage style home with all the modern amenities. Just a 38min drive from Yosemite entrance and 8-10min from Mariposa. Amazing location! Perfect for all the activities we wanted to do.
We loved this rental. Our group of 7 (4 adults, 3 children) stayed here while we enjoyed a couple of days at Yosemite. We loved how spacious this home was, and it felt cozy. We cooked a couple of meals and the kitchen had everything we needed. If we ever go back to Yosemite we will definitely stay here again.
Four of us stayed here and all enjoyed it. Super clean, great beds, outdoor grill was nice. Large and roomy. Cool to know it was once a roadside diner. Perfect spot for our trip to Yosemite. I would stay there again in a heartbeat! No complaints!
Loved the "cabin in the woods" feel of the Midpines HWY 140 house. So close to Yosemite we were able to see all the sights we wanted to and had a nice cozy cabin to return to. Loved the fireplace and that it was all set up and ready to light when we arrived. We brought food to prepare and all kitchen necessities were there and easy to find. Lots of DVDs and games available for the kids too.
Lovely home located just past Mariposa on your way to Yosemite National Park. Huge kitchen ( I love to cook) huge fireplace and I loved the privacy in the backyard. The beds and bedding were so comfortable. The host was amazing and super friendly and so were the owners. My trips will be more regular and this will be my stop. It’s perfect!
This house is right on 140 on your way in through the Arch Rock entrance to Yosemite. Unless you are staying in the park, it seemed to be one of the closest options other than a big motel right at the entrance. The house was well equipped and although a little more rustic had everything we needed. There is some road work being done between the house and Yosemite when we were there and so some delays both on the way into the park and back as well as we could hear some trucks buzzing by throughout the night. Pretty quick drive into Mariposa where there is a grocery store and multiple restaurants.
Property is a bit difficult to locate at night time. House was better than the pictures, place is clean and located in good location with respect to Yosemite.
Unfortunately, the furniture is very uncomfortable... The bed was sagging and way too soft. Everyone in our party complained and sleep came at a minimum. Sofa was also too soft. Our backs were hurting from the poor furniture.
This is a quirky old building. Used to be a road side cafe. The old timey photos of the cafe were a nice touch. The fireplace in the kitchen was awesome! Just looking out the kitchen windows to the creek across the street really made it feel like you're in the middle of nature. Not far from local shops and mom and pop restaurants. Still conveniently close to Merced river and Yosemite national park. The beds were nice but too soft for us. Also one of the beds was too high off the ground for some of our family members. Queen size only, no kings. But well stocked with dvds and games if needed. There was no working porch light so get there during day light, its easy to miss.
We would definitely stay here again. Wish i could live there forever!
Was amazing! Clean, easy to get around. Spacious for the kids! They had extra hiking backpacks that we were able to use, so cool!! Easy to get a hold of and responded quickly! Look forward to staying there again. Thank you!!
This property was very spacious and comfortable for the four of us.
It had two bathrooms, which was very convenient, and the kitchen was well equipped with cooking utensils.
The location was also great, with easy access to Yosemite—about 50 minutes to an hour by car.
We had a wonderful stay in this somewhat rustic house.It has charm, character, and was very comfortable.The highlight was preparing and eating home-made meals with a crackling fire in the large fireplace in the kitchen dining room.It's a long drive to Yosemite Valley, so not convenient if you're planing multiple days in the park, but Midpines is a charming little town to explore.
The check in was fast, communication with host was fine. The property needs some renovation. One sink has to be cleaned. The kitchen is well equipped, but some devices have to be changed like the toaster for example.The location is good, it's about one hour drive to Yosemite Valley.Overall we had a good time.
