About

Tucked along the Merced River, just 10 miles from Yosemite’s Arch Rock entrance, this warm and inviting home is a peaceful escape for families and friends. Located 21 miles from the town of Mariposa, River’s Edge offers the perfect blend of comfort and nature — with a newly renovated living room, cozy electric fireplace, and plenty of space to unwind.

Good to know

River’s Edge is a special place to slow down and reconnect — nestled right beside the Merced River, where the sound of flowing water greets you morning and night. This spacious and welcoming home features two king suites, each with their own spa tubs and private bathrooms. One has its own patio and a beautiful natural rock wall, bringing the outdoors in. There’s a full kitchen and dining area for shared meals, plus a living room and extra sitting room to spread out and relax. Outside, you’ll find a second patio with a BBQ and a brand-new outdoor shower surrounded by trees, sky, and river views. Perfect for families, the home also includes a double queen bedroom and a cozy attic room with four single beds that kids love. With cable TVs in every room and thoughtful touches throughout, River’s Edge is a place to make memories, celebrate special moments, or simply enjoy the quiet beauty of nature.

had a fantastic experience staying at this Airbnb! The host was incredibly welcoming and provided clear instructions before check-in, making the whole process smooth and hassle-free. They even shared great local recommendations, which made my trip even more enjoyable. The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had a cozy, homey feel. The bed was super comfortable, and all the amenities were thoughtfully provided. The location was perfect—close to Yosemite, making it easy to explore the area. This was one of the best Airbnb stays I’ve had, and I would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing. The cabin was close enough to the watefalls and hiking trails but also far enough that you truly feel like youre alone in nature. My family and I are already thinking about returning in the summer.
