You'll have the surrounding area, including the fire pit, private pond, and many hiking trails for shared use with host or our guests.

You can use the carport to park away from the elements! * Access to hiking trails is limited due to the 2024 winter storm.

This home is located on 43 private acres in Mariposa, California in the heart of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. While most mountain properties are located on a steep hill, all 43 acres are accessible, with over 2 miles of hiking trails for guests.

The location offers incredible privacy while still being close to all that Yosemite has to offer. Mariposa (15 minutes) and the nearby town of Oakhurst (25 minutes) were both settled during the Gold Rush and delight guests with their Wild West roots, diverse dining options, and unique attractions, like a mineralogy museum, a steam train ride, and historical villages.

In this area, it’s easy to do tons of outdoor activities like skiing, tubing, water sports, sky diving, canoeing, horseback riding, climbing, and off-road excursions. The biggest draw to this area is, of course, Yosemite National Park.

The South Gate Entrance in Fish Camp is a 45-minute drive from the house and the Yosemite Entrance located in El Portal takes about an hour, although travel times do get longer during weekend rush hours and holidays. Yosemite is world-renowned for its incredible natural beauty.

Within its roughly 1,200 square miles, you’ll find deep valleys, picturesque meadows, giant sequoias, countless waterfalls, expansive wilderness, and miles of scenic hiking trails.

There are endless opportunities for adventure, whether it’s hiking, biking, fishing, birdwatching, horseback riding, rock climbing (El Capitan is the biggest rock monolith in the world), stargazing, swimming, boating, skiing, snowshoeing, or scenic drives.

It’s a beautiful place to visit year-round, and every season brings a different experience. In Yosemite and the surrounding area, you’ll have opportunities to view plenty of wildlife, including deer, turkeys, squirrels, hawks, and rabbits.

You may even see a coyote, bear, mountain lion, raccoon, opossum, skunk, rattlesnake, tarantula, or scorpion! And be mindful of the poison oak and poison ivy that are part of the natural surroundings. Our location is also convenient to beautiful Bass Lake, a recreational area known for excellent fishing, hiking, wakeboarding, and watersports.

Bass Lake is about 30 minutes from the house. If you want to spend time with your loved one surrounded by nature, there’s no better place to be. To get around the neighborhood and between Oakhurst, Mariposa and Yosemite National Park you will need a car.

There is no public transportation or taxi transportation in the area that can replace car transportation and getting to the house. Yosemite National Park South Gate Entrance in Fish Camp is 1 h drive from Lovers nest.

Yosemite Entrance located in El Portal where Yosemite Valley is located takes 1 h drive.

Travel times get longer during weekend rush hours and holidays. The property is not fully fenced and is located in a secluded place.
