Amazing location, amazing stay, and an amazing BBQ setup! The apartment gave us the perfect base for our Yosemite adventure – peaceful, well-located, and full of charm. Would 100% stay again. Thanks Jessie! 🌲🔥🍷

Had a great stay at the cabin. Everything was as described and neat and clean. The access to the associated lodge up the road was convenient for takeout food and my sons were able to swim in the pool. Last and certainly not least, the proximity to the park is unmatched! Would stay again!

We enjoyed our stay at the Jessie’s cabin. We only had one small issue with hot water but it was fixed immediately. Great location just a few mins from entrance to Yosemite!

Genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better host. Jessie was very proactive in giving us guidance and tips to make the most of the area before we arrived. We had a little hiccup when we arrived and had to message Jessie at 11pm at night and she responded immediately helping us with no hesitation. I wouldn’t hesitate to book any of her properties in the future. Thank you so much Jessie 🙏

Absolutely perfect place for our adventure to Yosemite! Beautiful little cabin right off the highway and river into Yosemite. Short drive into the park, with comfortable beds, and the entire cabin was spotless! Will definitely be recommending this place to anyone we know visiting Yosemite. Jessie was extremely prompt on messaging back with info and recommendations. We had zero issues, but I feel if we did they would've been taken care of very quickly.

My brother and I were looking forward to several days of climbing in Yosemite. It was really nice to be so close to access the park. Earlier this spring, I stayed in an AirBNB closer to Mariposa and the extra commute really started to suck, especially in the dark after a long day of climbing. So, opting for the closer location was well worth it. It's a good space. I have Verizon which had no cell service when I showed up, but once I got on the WiFi, my phone worked fine.
