The Retreat is 37 miles to the hwy 140 Arch rock entrance to Yosemite, and 33 miles to the south gate Highway 41 entrance I alway suggest to my guest when visiting the valley floor to use the Hwy 140 entrance. the lodge is also a 30 minutes to Bass Lake, which is renowned for excellent fishing, hiking trails and warm waters. Wake borders flock to Bass Lake throughout the spring and summer as do boater, water skiers, paddle boarders, wave runner enthusiasts and more.

However, the distances are measured 'As the Crow flies', not driving miles.

We loved the place. It was very clean and neat. The beds are the best, comfortable. The only negative was the hot tub never got hot enough.

This is a beautiful home, that came with absolutely everything we needed, plus the large hot tub was amazing after hiking all day in Yosemite. The property was super clean and my friends even saw a family of dear walk by! The entrance to the south and arch rock entrance of Yosemite are relatively close and easy to access from the home.

This property gave my family what we need. A hidden quiet relaxing stay. Having to relax in a hot tub while watching the stars is a plus. Only regret we have is not have a full day at the house since we’ve been hiking in Yosemite the whole time. Beth even gave us a welcome treat. We would come back and stay.

This is definitely one of the very best vacation homes we've stayed at. The home is tastefully appointed throughout... and didn't lack for anything. Even so, the best part was the exterior decks and the beautiful views. Beth, our host, personally greeted us upon arrival which we found quite welcoming.

I stayed here with my wife, my dad, my stepmom, and my middle brother for a Yosemite trip. It is conveniently located about 15 minutes from downtown Mariposa and an hour from the center of the park.
Beth wad awesome! She made sire we had everything we needed for our stay, and even chatted with us while we were in the pool.
The bedrooms wre clean, AC worked great (hottest days of the year when we stayed) and was clean and comfortable. I will definitely be making this my go-to spot for 3 bedrooms when going to Yosemite.
Say hi to Beth for me! She was great, attentive, and courteous. She was easy to contact and very attentive when the power went out while we were in the park (affected our stay 0).
I highly recommend this property and this host!

We stayed for 3 days and went to Yosemite. From the house to the Valley Visitor Center was about an hour and a half. To Mariposa Grove was about an hour. Beth met us the first day we arrive and provided us with tips and advice on what to do in Yosemite. She was great and the advice was as well. The hot tub was nice to come back to after a long day of hiking. The house was clean and the whole family slept great (all the beds were super comfortable). We would come here again in a heartbeat.

Great property, my son is six and loved the hot tub and camp fire. It is quite far from Yosemite, took us nearly two hours every day to get to the Valley. That was the only downfall, everything else was great.

A beautiful place to stay that is a short drive into Yosemite. Beth was an amazing host that was welcoming and helpful. This was the perfect getaway to enjoy the peace of the great outdoors. So much to do to keep the kids busy. Would definitely stay again. ☺️

This is a really cute and fully equipped place for a family to stay. It is super clean, has everything you need and want and Beth is fantastic with her communication and responsiveness.
The only thing to be aware is that it is at least a 45mins to an hour plus drive to the Yosemite National Park. But Mariposa is a cute little town and you definitely get some quiet family fun time!
Highly recommend staying here.
Sid and family.

We had what seemed to be many challenges before arriving with all the storms happening in the area. I was checking with Caltrans to see if roads were open and where we couldn't travel. Bev went above and beyond in her searches for the same information, keeping us updated as to what roads were clear. We got into the car with trust in her connections and current updates and arrived with no problems at all.
The house was welcoming and well set up. Our family arrived and we all had plenty of room. The grill got used as did the hot tub. What a wonderful stay we had.
Bev was gracious and accomodating in all we might have needed. We now have a new vacation friend.
What will the new foal look like? We will have to wait to hear.
Our stay couldn't have been any better. Would I recommend a stay on Bev's property? Absolutely!
Thanks Bev.

We had a great stay at Beth's property, even in the crazy weather California is having right now. It was the perfect set-up for two couples with babies to have a relaxing weekend reunion: well-equipped kitchen, well-heated, perfectly clean, a great hot tub, and the property manager was great to work with. Although Yosemite was closed, we still had a nice vacation in the mountains because the property location itself is very nice. Although there had been flood warnings in Mariposa, the property did not have any flooding issues. Some parts of Triangle Road have water runoff, but it wasn't an obstacle to getting there.

The host Beth was amazing! She showed us the property and gave us a couple of great places to eat in town. Tucked in its own little neighborhood it felt totally remote and inclusive in the mountains. The perfect get away. From hanging out in the spa to waking up to the rising Sun while cooking breakfast it was an amazing get away.
Thank you again Beth and I would recommend this place to anyone!

Beth is a FANTASTIC host and the house is absolutely beautiful. So incredibly clean with gorgeous fixtures and super comfortable beds/couches. 40 minutes from the south or rock gate of Yosemite meant that we were able to drive down to the South Gate then through the whole park to the west gate and back to the house. It was absolutely perfect!
We stayed in winter and it was a lovely, cozy base for exploring the snowy Yosemite valley. FYI you can’t use the wood stove in the photos, but you won’t feel the need to as the central heating is extremely good. The fire pit on the porch and the hot tub are a great touch and got used every night. Thank you Beth for the excellent stay!

This house is more than I expected. I don’t think a single detail was overlooked. The host is very accommodating. The beds were comfortable, pillows were perfect, kitchen had everything we needed. The only bad thing was that we didn’t stay longer! I would recommend to family and friends and will be returning!
