Mariposa, California
Secluded on eleven acres nestled amongst the Oaks and Pines, our studio loft Old Oak Hideaway I, is awaiting your pleasure. This studio has everything you will need for a quiet getaway. A fully loaded kitchen, Wireless internet, Netflix is available for on demand movies and tv programs or access other streaming options via the ROKU tv. The Loft is children friendly, but not childproof.
You may see many of the wild animals we have wondering the property at times, deer, fox, coyote, wild turkey and others. We also have a German Shepherd, Charlie, that roams freely on the property. He is friendly, but does sometimes bark at people initially. Once he takes a sniff he will be your best friend. We do ask that he is not allowed to enter the unit. We also have three cats that roam around as well.
I stayed here more than a year back but forgot to leave a review that time - but this property and owners were so good that I came back today to write a review. The drive to Yosemite national park was easy. The owners were nice and nearby - I also got to meet their most adorable dog. It was my choice to go and say hello to them. This accommodation is totally independent of their house which is nearby. I was able to cook and watch a movie on Netflix after a long day at the Yosemite national park.
Upon entering the property, I was very disappointed at how rundown it looked. Paint was chipping off the building, items were stored outside as though it was a personal junk yard, and it looked as though the property was not well kept. As well, there was a step while going up the stairs where both my husband and I almost lost our balance and went backwards. While inside, it looked nice and clean at first glance, however, I quickly found used toiletries that were laid out in the bathroom (I mean, though it may have been intended as a nice sentiment, this should’ve been removed. I did not want to use anyone’s used items, nor think about others using the same product that was forwarded to me), thr “family-friendly” items were horribly dirty and stained, the first aid kit needed hand washing after touching it, and the toilet brush was disgusting. Considering this is during COVID, it should’ve been spotless and it was far from it. The AC was loud and abnoxious but necessary during the summer heat. I wish I could say nice things about this place but for us, it was a huge disappointment and I would not recommend if this is considered your “getaway.”
Located close to the eastern and southern entrances to Yosemite. Also close to Mariposa center where yarts busses can take you into the park at reasonable senior rates. Shell, our host, was quick to respond and very helpful in suggesting eating and grocery spots. Clean and well stocked and quiet. Thanks Shell. John and Dianna
Neat, clean, conveniently located, all mod cons, everything spotless and shiny, and kudos+++ to Shell for providing both smoke and co alarms (the first Vrbo I've ever stayed at that had them, I carry my own). This is an awesome place, I can't say enough.
This is the proper house to stay um when you arrive from yosemite Park. Perfect to rest.
We stayed here with our kids during a road trip to Yosemite and it was perfect. The owner loves on-site and was super friendly and accessible. The unit is very family friendly and there were even toys and scooters for my kids to play with. We also loved meeting Charlie who was so friendly!! At night we could see more stars than we’d ever seen. Location is also close to the town of Mariposa which has shops and restaurants. Great stay
The listing was as advertised and the host was very responsive to all questions. The location was about an hour drive from Yosemite. For us, it wasn't a problem because we like to have eating options and the closer you get to the park, the less options you have. There are two towns within a 15 minute drive from the listing that have several local places to eat. We stayed at this location for a week. It would have been nice if the listing had a washer and dryer available as we went through a lot of clothes hiking everyday and the laundry mat option is a hassle. However, I would definetely choose this location again if I travle to Yosemite. Thanks Shell!
The Loft was perfect for our trip to Yosemite. It was very comfortable and we had everything we needed. Shell was very accommodating and easy to work with.
We stayed at the loft for a business trip. The loft was quiet, clean and well stocked with kitchen and bath necessities. Shell was a gracious host. We had a power outage while out during one day and she was ready with extension cords and her generator if necessary - thankfully the power returned before we returned for the evening. We would highly recommend the location, facilities and the host.
My bf and I stayed here two nights while visiting Yosemite NP. It was a little over an hour drive to the park but we didn’t mind because we were closer to a grocery store and restaurants! It was clean and the host was a quick responder to my messages. 10/10 would stay again.
Really good location, lots of nature, and friendly owner.
Such a wonderful, relaxing place to unwind and escape. It’s so quiet and clean. Shell was wonderful with getting in touch beforehand and providing directions. If I’m ever in the area, I would be staying again.
Shell was great and so was the dog that greeted us. Room was perfect in cleanliness, usefulness, and location. Only thing I regret is not bringing treats for the Doggie!
Owner was a good communicator. Directions to property were also good.
