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.

Very unique setting and absolutely great location to park entrance. Had everything we needed for a family gathering. Host was super responsive. Hope to be back, pictures really don’t do it justice.

Divine! I loved simply sitting on the patio beside the rushing water. We were nine in our family and everyone had a place of their own. Really well equipped kitchen. The wild flower walk begins behind the home. River House felt like a home away from home. Thank you Jessie.
