Stunning VIEWS & Private, Yosemite Gold Rush Ranch

Our Yosemite home is just 22 miles from West Entrance to Yosemite National Park driving along the scenic Merced River. Our peaceful and very private nine acre property has expansive views of the Sierras. The home is perfect for accommodating a family on vacation, but cozy enough for a couples weekend. With three full baths it's easy to get ready for your daily adventures in Yosemite...although you might never want to leave the property. Come and enjoy the seclusion!

Our beautiful 2 bedroom 3 bathroom home sits on top of a ridge on a nine acre lot filled with oak trees. As you step on the back deck, you will have unobstructed views of the Sierras with no neighbors in sight. It's peaceful and quiet up here - just rabbits and deer wandering about. The red barn stands peacefully in the middle of the property.

Inside the house, the great room overlooks the Sierras with postcard views through large windows. A Sonos sound system lets you relax to your music as you watch the sun rise over the mountains. Roku TV in guest mode lets you sign into your own streaming services through high speed Starlink Internet.

If cooking is your thing, the home has a brand new kitchen with all new appliances and cookware. We have fridge, stove, dishwasher, toaster, pots, pans, cups, plates, utensils, InstantPot, Rice cooker, and a BBQ grill. Love coffee? We have Oxo burr coffee grinder, Hario pour over setup, mokapot and a Ninja coffee maker.

There’s a bathroom with stand-in shower right off living room for quick showers. The second bedroom has two twin beds and an attached bathroom with bath tub and a shower. The master suite has a king bed with a bath tub. With three full baths, your entire group can get ready for the day or quickly unwind for the evening.

A large deck wraps around the house with space to hang out. Take in the sunrise over Yosemite in the morning from couple of large and cozy hammocks. Or watch the evening light slowly fade away into darkness. See the stars blanket the night sky and the Milky Way...

We have a heat pump that keeps the house cool in summer and warm in winter. It's powered by solar and Tesla Powerwall battery. Even in a power outage, you have peaceful, quiet power that will keep you comfortable. There's also a wood stove in the great room if you want warmth with the ambiance.

There's a level 2 EV charger next to the barn to get your EV charged up and ready for your adventure the next day.

Sleeping arrangement:

Bedroom 1 (Master) has king size bed and its own bathroom and closet.

Bedroom 2 has two twin beds with its own bathroom and closet. Note that the 2nd bedroom is not private. You have to walk through the 2nd bedroom to reach the Master Bedroom. So the home is suited more for a single family than multiple families vacationing together.

The Living Room has a Queen sofa bed and comes with bedding for a good night sleep.

Exterior Security Cameras:
We have two security cameras, one looking out from the front of the house to monitor the driveway, and a second one near the gate at the entrance to the property.

Comfortable house
The house size was very nice. But oddly you had to walk through one bedroom to get to the master bedroom. In an attempt to be helpful, I guess, the host left notes all over the house. Unfortunately, it felt like I had gone off to college and come home and mom was leaving me notes about the house rules. The property itself was nice with an amazing view, but the neighborhood was a little rundown with junk vehicles, etc. in the yards.

A lovely stay during our trip to Yosemite
The house is beautiful, comfortable, well stocked, and surrounded by nature with amazing views. It’s an easy drive up the 140 to the Arch Rock entrance to Yosemite, and the gold rush town of Mariposa is very close by as well. Highly recommend!

Great property with thoughtful details
Great stay, property is full of thoughtful details and is quiet and secluded with a view. Conveniently located, not too far from the park. Hosts were extremely responsive and obviously put a lot of care into the place. Will definitely be staying here again.

Great location for a Yosemite vacation.
We stayed at the Gold Rush Ranch for our family vacation to Yosemite (4 adults). We spent most of our days at the park which is just under an hour away. But after a long day of hiking it was so nice to come back to a clean comfortable modern home. The beds were very comfortable and the home had everything we needed, linens, towels, washer/dryer, wifi, coffee maker etc. And the view on the back deck was absolutely beautiful, especially in the morning. The town of Mariposa is barely 10 minutes away where we were able to buy groceries and eat dinner out each night. We definitely recommend this VRBO rental. Thank you Rekha and Shyam for sharing you beautiful home with us.

Perfect stay
The owners were so amazing. From the beautiful property to their great accommodations. This stay was exactly what we wanted. The location was close enough to Yosemite to visit during the day, but perfect to escape from all the crowds. We will definitely be coming back!

This is a great place to stay. Very clean and friendly hosts
A great place if you want to relax. 45 min drive to Yosemite but rewarding when getting there. Great view of the Mountains a even better at night time to see the stars. Place is fully equipos so we felt like being home. Owners are very friendly and communicative, which help quite a lot. Truly recommend it
