Canyon View Retreat is quiet and relaxing. The house is at the end of the road and over 2 miles off of highway 140 so you won’t hear any highway noise. Let the stress melt away while sitting on the deck enjoying the wonderful views of the Merced River Valley, the amazing sunsets, or even sit in the spa and look at all of the stars you don’t see in the city. This completely remodeled house sits on 20 acres and features 3 bedrooms that are separated from one another, 4 full high end bathrooms, and a bonus area. The house sleeps 14 comfortably. The master bath is 8’ x 12’ and features a large walk-in shower. The master bedroom has a cal-king Sealy mattress and all the other bedrooms have queen Sealy mattresses. The bonus area has 2 queen beds, both with queen Sealy mattresses. There is a pull out sofa bed in the kids area downstairs along with a roll out twin bed. The sleeping areas have blinds to keep the morning sun out. The large kitchen is fully stocked for cooking you’d do at the house. Also included is a 12 bottle wine fridge with dual temperature zones and an espresso machine. The kitchen table seats 12 comfortably and there is room for 3 more at the bar area. Outside the kitchen area is a 1500 sf patio with a bbq and access to the pool and spa. There is no lifeguard on duty and it is use at your own risk. The pool is open in mid May to the end of September. There is a dining table for six and a few lounge chairs out there.

You can walk up to the trails to the top of the hill and back along the property. You will be in areas where you don’t see any house and don’t hear any highway noise. While you are out in the country, you are about 15 minutes away from the town of Mariposa. The Merced River Valley is about a 10 minute drive from the house where you can play in the river and go white water rafting. On the property you can see wild animals including turkey, deer, rabbits, and birds. In the winter we can get snow. Typically it will snow 2"-6" during a storm and melt off within a few days. Snow chains are recommended during winter months in case of a snow storm. ** 11 miles to Butterfly Creek Winery ** 11 miles to town of Mariposa ** 30 miles to River Creek Golf Course in Ahwahnee ** 40 miles to Bass Lake ** 45 miles to Chukchansi Casino in Coursegold ** 35 miles to Yosemite Valley (about 30 minutes to the gate) The drive to Canyon view Retreat is about 2.5 to 3 hours in the Bay Area. If you are flying into the bay area, try to land before 1 pm and fly into Oakland or San Jose to avoid traffic as the traffic from SFO can be bad. The Fresno airport is probably your best option.
