Little Piece of Yosemite

An Oasis Outside Yosemite

Calea and Christian are as welcoming as their land is beautiful! We booked two nights on their hipcamp lot with our campervan. We were happy to have the firepit and access to potable water while being so close to Yosemite, but the real treat was their outdoor shower/tub and access to their refreshing backyard creek. During the hot day we took our dogs for a dip and after all of us cooled off, we laid out on the shore and took a nap by the flowing water. Their land was a healing and welcome oasis for us and we’re so thankful they opened it up for us to experience it! We’ll DEFINITELY return next time we’re near Yosemite.

Amazing property with a private creek that is incredibly refreshing in the summer heat. Really great hosts and felt very welcomed to their home. Close to Yosemite and easy access via the shuttle bus in Mariposa if you’re looking to avoid driving into Yosemite.

Serenity!

Lovely spot near the river and wonderfully welcoming hosts. While you can see some buildings from the tent spot it feels private and is very quiet. Tent spot is very flat and has a picnic table. Water spigots available. The tub and shower were a short 4 min walk from the side down near the river. Wonderful swimming holes and a gorgeous river running below. Water was clean and clear. Bring bug spray. We sat in the creek with our chairs all day. Very peaceful. Only one other family or two sharing the river but plenty of space to spread out. Will be dreaming of coming back.

Private setting, not too close to the road. Instructions were lacking on the Wi-Fi, (switch needs to be flipped on the power). Shower is in a great setting, but a good 200+ yards from the campsite. The pipes were frozen over so we didn’t get to use. I’m sure this is a great spot in the summer, as the creek runs by the property. Creek is below the shower location so no immediately adjacent to the site.
