Great location for visiting Yosemite. The unit is spacious and has all the amenities you could ask for. Irene was a great host and extremely responsive. We would stay again.
Beautiful property with a lovely butterfly theme inside. The neighborhood is quiet and away from the more touristy downtown. I loved my stay and wish I had been able to visit Mariposa longer!
The apartment was very clean, quite and comfortable. The location provided easy access to Yosemite park. Irene, the host, responded to our text messages. The kitchen was well equipped. We would stay here again.
This apartment was perfect for our trip to Yosemite. It was about an hour and 20 minutes from Curry village. Mariposa is a small town but has all the amenities you need.
Our family stayed for a few days in Mariposa. The apartment was clean and had all the necessities. Love this little town- friendly people, lots of dining options within 5 minutes drive, not far from Yosemite.

An hour away from Yosemite. Clean apartment with good facilities.
We had a great time staying here for our 5-day trip to visit Yosemite. This 2BR apartment was perfect for our group of 4 adults, A great retreat to return to after long days of hiking in the park. The location was good as there were several good restaurants in Mariposa and we were about 45 minutes away from Yosemite Valley.
We had a great time and will definitely stay here again the next time we come to the area. Irene was a great host.
The house has been beautifully decorated with butterfly theming throughout. The kitchen has everything you will need to cook. There is even a a water filter which gives hot and cold water. Our stay was comfortable and we had a nice time in Irene’s house.
House has all amenities one would expect for a vacation home next to Yosemite (there's a water filter with cold and hot water, coffee machine, AC in every room, big TV and everything else you could need. Irene was an amazing host. Would definitely be back!

Easy to find, quick access to town and highways, all amenities you'll need. Might want to bring your own pillow. The ones at the house are a little too big (for me). Wildlife in the property in back is fun to watch!
We chose to stay in Mariposa during our visit to Yosemite. This apartment was located close to the highway to the park and to restaurants and grocery stores in town. The kitchen was well-equipped, having everything we needed to make our own meals. Overall, we enjoyed our experience and would recommend it for anyone who doesn't mind being a little further away from the park.
Apartment was a lot bigger than we needed just being my husband and I, but well worth the money. 2 bedrooms, 1 queen bed and 2 twin with a reclining couch and chair this could easily sleep 6-7 ppl comfortably. The wildlife (deer) in the area were fun to watch. Everything we needed was already there.
The butterfly apartment was indeed exceptional! Very clean and well cared for and as good a location as can be expected if you’re not in the park. Nice extra touches include portable a/c units in every room (a portable heater for main room for winter), both DIRECTV sat tv and streaming smart tv, and an Avalon water system that spits out filtered hot, cool, or cold water. The WiFi worked well. Furniture was comfy for hanging out. Nice quiet area just past a small town hospital. Nearby Pioneer Market was a full service supermarket and had a food truck with delicious authentic Mexican food (lengua yum!!!!). It was a perfect home base for our Yosemite visit. Thanks, Irene!
Very cute and prevalent butterfly theming, a lot of love went into this home. The water filter was an excellent addition as well. About an hour from Yosemite, straight down 140. Host was nice and accommodating when I wanted to add a day to my stay as well :)

It was a great location with its proximity to Yosemite yet remote and quiet. The facilities were excellent and the amenities abundant. Irene was a wonderful host. We would love to return in the future
It was so easy to hop on the highway and get to Yosemite from here, which is exactly what we were looking for. Irene was friendly and her communication was prompt and helpful. The apartment was roomy and comfortable and exactly as advertised. It was perfect for our family of 4 (1 adult, 3 kids)!
