This is a peaceful place away from home. We had quiet evenings, morning coffee with wild turkeys and everything we needed. I slept like a baby here and would highly recommend this spot to anyone going up for a visit to the Yosemite area.

Wonderful getaway near Yosemite

We used it as our home base to take winter hikes in Yosemite. It was lovely! The single tiny downside was not being able to leave our very old dog in the home while we were away. But overall a very comfortable home.

Nice getaway

It was a perfect location for Yosemite. The house was mid clean as the bathrooms were a bit dirty(both showers) and there is an ant issue in the kitchen. But the hosts had loads of games and entertainment and the property was lovely.

Great communication and responsiveness

We appreciated that we could drop off our groceries before the check in time so that we could head to Yosemite! The home was very nicely decorated and comfortable. The beds were comfortable, too. We enjoyed watching some of the DVD's and loved the welcome snacks. The notebook was also helpful. Our host was very responsive. Thank you!

Good Communication. Well prepared home to receive guests and our needs. Clean. Only suggestion is to add a level 2 EV Charger. Accommodating this need will keep you competitive. We had a wonderful stay!

We loved our stay at the Midpines House. The house has everything you need in the kitchen, the beds are comfy and supportive, and there are thoughtful touches throughout. We loved having our evening meal and wine on the deck with the cute Solar lights. It was a good basecamp for the Arched Rock entrance to Yosemite. We went to Mariposa Grove as well. The hot tub was great after a day of hiking. We hope to come back!

The house is about 30 min from Yosemite's El Portal Rd (Arch Rock) entrance. It was a very well appointed, comfortable, clean house in a nice neighborhood. We would certainly stay there again when visiting the area.

We had a wonderful stay at the Midpine cottage! The place was clean, beautifully decorated and full of thoughtful touches! Kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans and utensils. There are several spots around the property to relax- we especially enjoyed morning coffee on the front porch. Jerry and Courtney were very responsive host. They even set out a bed, bowls and treats for our puppies which we really appreciate! Highly recommend this place and would love to come back.

Relaxing getaway near Yosemite

My family and I made this place our base for our Yosemite trip, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We loved how cozy the interior of the home was, and how close to nature we were. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well-equipped and hot tub was clean. On top of that, we found all we need provided for in the accommodations - ranging from dishwashing pods, washing detergent and dryer wool, pots and pans, spices for our cooking just to name a few.There was a small hiccup where the barbecue ran out of gas. The hosts were very quick to respond, which we are grateful for. Overall a very enjoyable and relaxing stay!

Gem in the woods

Adorable clean, spacious cabin, close to town but feels private and remote. Charming decor from living room to bedrooms with comfortable beds and bedding. So many usable spaces- front porch, back porch, and ample space in living and dining area. The host has thought of all needs including toiletries, snacks, coffee, towels for hot tub etc. Good communication online and thorough instruction book with checkout info. Wish we could have stayed longer :)

Yosemite Visit

Yosemite was the last National Park on our family’s 3 week trip out west, and the cabin was a great place to conclude our trip. Great accommodations, and easy access to Yosemite and to Mariposa. Owners provide great instructions and details on the property and surrounding areas, would definitely stay again if in the area.
