About this property

The Creek House Near Yosemite

The Creek House is a 1068 sq foot home. All new construction. Situated in the Oak trees and 8 acres of private land in Midpines, California. A Yosemite Gateway community. We have two seasonal creeks and one year round creek on the property. 2.3 miles up a paved road from the all year Yosemite Highway 140. It offers a quiet setting and some privacy. The property backs to 12 acres of BLM land for a total of 20 acres to roam.

The house is a 2 bedroom 2 full bath. With a pull out bed in the living room. A full kitchen compliments the floor layout. French doors open to the living room where you are greeted by high ceilings and a layout that gives a feeling of spaciousness. A large sliding patio door opens to a private patio and outdoor tables and a Weber BBQ. The bedrooms are situated at opposite ends of the house. Brand new queen size beds greet you for a comfortable night’s sleep. The Master bedroom has its own private and large full bathroom. The Master bedroom also has its own small patio and sliding patio door. The second bedroom is situated right next to the other full bathroom. Both bedrooms have independent air conditioning and heat control and ceiling fans. The living room has a 40 inch flat screen TV with Roku. Two comfortable couches and a lounge chair. Independent AC/Heating controls and a ceiling fan. Tile floors in the bathrooms and beautiful laminate floors throughout the rest of the house bring a sense of relaxation. The Kitchen is fully stocked with cooking utensils, pots, pans, culinary knife set, cutting boards, blender, toaster, and all you needed to prepare a hearty meal. There’s roasted coffee, teas and sugar. The pantry has cooking oil, olive oil, and colorful cookbooks. A spice rack rounds out the kitchen. Plenty of free parking. Outside lights and security lighting. Free WIFI is also included, however we are in a rural area and we don't guarantee the WIFI’s speed and connectivity. We get a Verizon signal at The Creek House.

We are 15 minutes from the historic town of Mariposa. The Merced river is a 10 minute drive. Fishing, swimming, rafting, and relaxing await. We are a 40 minute drive to the Yosemite National Park entrance and 60 minutes drive to the Yosemite Valley. The drive follow's the beautiful Merced River, so please make extra time for photo ops. There is also bus service from the Midpines area to Yosemite.

We look forward to your stay at The Creek House. The Wild Turkey's, Deer, Quail, Hawks, and countless other species await. Sip your Coffee in the morning and listen to the breeze blow through the trees.

Thank you. Dean and Angie

Wonderful stay
Creek House was in a good location with plenty of amenities nearby. Kitchen fully equipped and bed very comfortable. Rest of the space was furnished to a high standard including a welcomed air conditioning unit and washer/dryer. All areas were extremely clean. We enjoyed our trips to Yosemite which was within a commutable distance from the property. Hiking was excellent and the views were amazing. The weather was kind to us too with mainly hot & dry days and warm nights. The main reason for staying in Midpines was to access the Park and we weren't disappointed with the accommodation, it surpassed all our expectations. Communication between ourselves and Dean & Angie was good and they greeted us with a few treats for our stay….. thanks. Definitely recommend this property and hopefully will return one day.

Peaceful Getaway
Property was pretty clean. Plenty of items to make it feel like home. Clean up was easy and directions were laid out appropriately. Little far (1 hour at least) from Yosemite. Town of mariposa is ok.

lovely property BUT.......
The location and the home were very good. Only issue giving this stay a poor rating was the water from the faucets. The water was brown with visible sediment which would settle in the glass etc after a few minutes. Even the ice was brown.We had to buy bottled water for drinking, cooking etc.... something we don't normally like to purchase.When showering we didn't know if the brown on the washcloth was due to dirt from hiking or what was coming out of the showerhead. To me this water was/is a health hazard and and the property should not be allowed to rented if this condition occurs regularly or not until the problem is corrected. If we had known that there was a possibility of this happening we would not have rented this home.
