About this property

Park Rangers' hilltop cabin near Yosemite - 3+ night discount

Great for an unforgettable trip to Yosemite! This cabin is at the top of a bright hilltop with mountain views and starry night skies. Its comfort and seclusion makes for a perfect retreat after exploring the park all day, yet its location makes it easy for you to get around. As local residents and former park rangers, our exclusive pro-tips are a bonus. We know the area: 10-minutes to town of Mariposa, 15-minutes to Wild and Scenic Merced River, and 1-hour to Yosemite Valley. (For 3+ night base rent discount, inquiry BEFORE booking, excluding many holidays.) In 2024, advanced Peak Hour Plus Reservations required to enter Yosemite on specific dates (see park website for information and purchase details or ask us).

Spectacular place to stay
This is the second time I’ve stayed at this place, and each time has been a pleasure. The house is well stocked with everything you need. The furnishings are comfortable, and the hosts are friendly and informative. There is lots of room to spread out. The location near Yosemite is spectacular!

Loved our time at this cabin
Would like to say a sincere thank you to Margaret for her awesome communication. This cabin was perfect for us, and we had three incredible days in Yosemite NP. Be sure to wake up early getting into the park! We also highly recommend the june bug cafe at Yosemite Bug about 10 minutes down the road.

The host, Margaret is helpful in communicating unforeseen issues like smoke condition, trail closure, and road condition. The house is immaculately kept. It is welcoming after a day of hiking, especially the ability to cook warm food. Stay in this cabin if you're going to Yosemite.

Family Trip
The house was wonderful and everyone fit perfectly. We have 3 teenagers and they had their own beds and bathroom. We really enjoyed sitting in the family room and playing trivia together. The dining room was great for pizza night with the family after a long day at Yosemite!!

About the host

Hosted by Margaret and Charlie Repath

Host profile image
We are native San Franciscans who have lived in many beautiful places across the country while working for the National Park Service, such as Yosemite, Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, Sequoia, and Rocky Mountain.

Why they chose this property

While working in Yosemite, we decided to buy property closer to Mariposa and make it our own. We love the mountains and the variety of activities the local community offers. Since 2015, we have successfully rented the house as a vacation home.

What makes this property unique

The property is very private. We love working on the 12-acres to manage the natural landscape. Our favorite features are the mountain views and the clear starry night sky, which is rare to see in California.
