So clean!

My husband and I were so impressed with how neat and clean this house was. We were about a 50-60 minute drive from Yosemite, and the town of Mariposa was only a few minutes away. The restaurants in Mariposa were great! Would recommend staying here!

Lovely Home!

This house was perfect for our short stay in Miraposa. It was a great location for visiting Yosemite and just a short drive to restaurants. The house was very clean and was well stocked with everything we needed! The instructions for check in and out were clearly displayed and very helpful! We would love to stay here again if ever back in the area!

Perfection

This property is exactly what we were looking for; private, quiet, clean and a refuge after a day of adventures around the Yosemite and Mariposa areas. My family of 4 (including 2 teens) loved it! The beds were comfortable and the place was spotless. Our host was great with communication. I would highly recommend it to friends and family.

Perfect in Every Way!

My family and I are so happy that we chose to stay at Oak Rock Hideaway during our visit to Yosemite. The beds were very comfortable and provided us with a great night's sleep every night, and the home was incredibly clean. I loved that the house had an abundance of natural light inside and that the back patio/deck was so secluded. I thoroughly enjoyed looking at the views and watching the birds while drinking my coffee on the deck each morning. True peace and serenity! We would love to stay again if we ever return to the area.

This is the cleanest place I have ever stayed. Not only was everything prestige inside, but outside as well. No cob webs anywhere for this place in the mountains! All outdoor furniture was spotless. Very, very well done and we are so happy we chose this property.

Very impressed!

The home is even more spacious than expected and was spotless. Charming backyard to relax. Just far enough away from Mariposa to see TONS of stars at night, but only a 5-10 minute drive to Mariposa to explore the town. Mariposa is charming...I wish we had more time to explore it. The beds were super comfy. Can't say enough good things about the home. VERY comfortable for our family of 5. Would stay again in a heartbeat! Host responded within minutes and very easy to communicate with.

Hideaway Gem!

Oak Rock Hideway is appropriately named. If you're looking for a comfortable and well-kept home that's off the beaten path this is it!! There was plenty of room for our group of 4 seniors, and we made good use of the well-stocked kitchen and outdoor grill to prepare our evening meals after long days of exploring in Yosemite, Sequoia and Kings Canyon. The owners live right next door and checked-in several times to make sure we had everything we needed. In Mariposa itself, we were surprised and pleased by how big and well stocked the Pioneer Market was! We've become regular VRBO renters over the past 7 or 8 years and would rate this property as one of the better ones we've stayed in!!

Ahhhh....peace and quiet

My family and I were looking for a place close to Yosemite (within an hour drive) but away from the noise that tourists bring. We came upon this little gem and it was perfect. The owners were great when it came to communication and there was nothing left to chance. The house itself is beautiful, super clean and shows the pride of ownership. It is clear that the owners think about what they would want if they were the guests when it comes to the little things...like providing beach towels and a cooler for a day at the lake. This was my first time renting a VRBO...and I couldn't recommend a better introduction. If you are looking for a great place near Yosemite...look no further. This is your place!

Best place to stay in Mariposa

Our stay at the Oak Rock Hideaway was absolutely perfect. Yvonne and Stan were wonderful hosts—warm, helpful, and always respectful of our privacy. We also loved meeting Gus Gus the horse! The house itself was incredibly comfortable and beautifully maintained, with everything we could possibly need thoughtfully provided. I especially appreciated the kid-friendly touches, like beach towels, plates, bowls, and cups for our toddler. The entire space was spotless, and the furniture was clearly cared for and very comfortable. Overall, this was a fantastic experience and I can’t recommend staying here highly enough.
