Yosemite Pines Retreat, Miniature ponies! Huge Yard! SPA, Pool, and PLAY AREA

Come play, unwind, and visit Yosemite all while staying at the Yosemite Pines Retreat in the Woods located.. This ranch style vacation home is perfectly situated amongst a peaceful and serene setting in the mountains.

The Yosemite Pines Retreat is the perfect place to come and enjoy!

During your stay you will be able to enjoy nature with views of 100 + year old ponderosa pines, deer, bunnies, and wild turkeys. You may choose to meditate and sit in the heavenly garden while listening to the tranquil garden water fountain, or play a lively game of horseshoes, make some smores at the fire pit and enjoy the view of the milky way from the spa! Or even play a game of ping-pong! For the little ones we have a play set, that is a two story playhouse with swings, a slide, and even a climbing wall! (playset does have a 110 pound weight limit) We also offer an above ground pool which is open during the summer please NOTE that the pool is closed from Oct 2nd through April 30th

Yes, there's ponies!
If you like spending time in nature with animals the owner has docile and friendly miniature ponies. That are just mere steps away from the house for you to enjoy a visit with.

Whatever you choose to do it is guaranteed that you will enjoy the many amenities that Yosemite Pines Retreat offers.

Featuring a roughly 1,600 sq. ft. home of living space, 3 spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a fully equipped laundry room. This home is a perfect secluded retreat for a large group (housing up to 8) or a quiet romantic getaway for two. Linens, bedding, towels, paper goods, trash bags, dish washing and dishwasher soap and hand soap are all provided. The kitchen is fully equipped, with attention to detail, and has everything you'll need to prepare and serve your meals. The dining table seats 8 people comfortably.

This quiet property is ideally located allowing guests to partake in all the outdoor activities the Yosemite area has to offer. You can hike all of Yosemite's trails including Half Dome, white water raft on the Merced River, fish, mountain bike, walk along the Merced River, swim and boat at Bass Lake, and enjoy walks and hikes in the Mariposa area. Downtown Mariposa also has concerts in the local Art Park every summer weekend and has art galleries and museums for you to enjoy. Whether you are here as a family or after a quiet getaway, you will be able to enjoy the abundance of activities all easily accessed from our Retreat.

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. In the map section of this site under the heading 'What's Nearby', indicates the mileage distance from this house to those listed locations. However, the distances are measured 'As the Crow flies', not driving miles. Although the Retreat setting is quiet and remote, it is a mere 15 minute drive to downtown Mariposa, 20 minutes to Oakhurst and there is a local diner/convenience store/fuel stop less than 1 mile away.

Yosemite Pines Retreat in the Woods is truly a slice of heaven that will leave you feeling refreshed and ready for your next adventure after your stay. We look forward to sharing our vacation home with you and hearing about your Yosemite vacation experience!

Beautiful calm property
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 Place Hits All the Marks
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.

Mariposa gem
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.
