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.

Absolutely Perfect Stay! Our stay at the Cabin in Midpines was amazing! The location was perfect—peaceful yet convenient for exploring Midpines and Yosemite. The cabin felt like a true home away from home—cozy, well-designed, and perfect for unwinding. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, making our stay even more comfortable. The host was incredibly welcoming, ensuring we had everything we needed. Communication was effortless, with quick responses and great local recommendations. We loved it so much that we extended our stay by three nights! The host made it seamless, even responding late at night. I can’t recommend this Airbnb enough—perfect for a Yosemite visit! And the coffee/tea setup was great. 🤍

Rekha & Shyam are everything you would want in a host. Very detailed instructions and extremely responsive. Also friendly and fun to talk to. Made us feel like we could talk to them at any time about anything. But that’s not the best part….. This is a stunning, quiet, oasis on a mountain top. Just 45 minutes from Yosemite. It’s the perfect place to relax, have fun with family, or be romantic with your loved one. This was an experience we won’t forget 🩵

This is a great house with a great view. It's very cool that there's a charging station for EVs. It's also a very large area. And best of all, the proximity to yosemite.

We had a wonderful stay over Christmas at Rekha & Shyams place. The property was beautiful, clean, and nicely furnished. The hosts were very communicative through the entire process - with recommendations, answers to questions, and proactively asking how things were. It was a great way to spend Christmas with good access to restaurants in Mariposa and about 45 min drive to Yosemite valley. The property is a bit away from the main road. But the trade off of a huge property, peaceful surrounding, and amazing views was definitely worth it. The sunset view was stunning and our dogs loved running around all the space.

I have a few things: Rekha and Shyam communicated well with me. Messaged prior to stay and even checked in after the first day which was nice. They were also quick to respond! It’s hard to find a renovated place that still has that cabin feel. I was looking for something with big windows in the living room and a place to light a fire. Their home looks and feels clean, and the bed was comfortable. We loved that their cabin was close to town and Yosemite all while having privacy. As a childless millennial couple with a GSD/Belgian Mal mix, the property was perfect! She is very high energy and loved exploring the property as well as seeing the deer up close. My husband and I have recommended their home during our stay and will continue to do so, it was perfect!

I had an amazing stay at this beautiful property near Yosemite! The location is incredibly scenic, and it was the perfect base for exploring the area. Rekha and Shyam were fantastic hosts—helpful, responsive, and so accommodating. I especially appreciated their kindness in accepting my request for pet boarding while we went on a hike. The backyard campfire setup was a highlight, making our evenings cozy and memorable. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to enjoy Yosemite with great hospitality!

Getting around

Distance to various destinations: Yosemite West Entrance (El Portal) is 23 miles away or a 40 minute drive . After a quick 10 minute descent into the valley, you drive along the picturesque Merced river to the park entrance. Continuing to Yosemite Valley Destinations such as waterfalls, El Capitan - additional 13 miles. Depending on the traffic and how often you stop to take in the views, this can take between 20-30 minutes. Mariposa Town (Grocery Store, Restaurants) - 8 miles, but in the opposite direction to the park. We recommend getting your shopping done before arriving at our home
