This mountain hide-away is truly magical. Explore our six forested and private acres, in the Sierra National Forest. Black Bear Lodge and Bunkhouse Cottage is uniquely situated between two Yosemite entrances. We are 35 miles to the Arch Rock Entrance (access to Yosemite Valley, Yosemite Village, Half Dome, El Capitán and Tunnel View). And, we are 35 miles to the South Gate (access to Wawona, the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias, Bass Lake and the Sugar Pine Railroad). Both drives are absolutely gorgeous and take approximately one hour.
Enjoy our brand new hot tub underneath the stars after a day of exploring the nearby National Park. Our outdoor amenities also include a propane BBQ, picnic tables, hammocks and fire pit (weather permitting). For our equestrian travelers, your horses will be as pampered and comfortable as you are in our four stall barn (some with automatic water), turn out pasture, round pen and tack room.
Our area also abounds in hiking opportunities (some within walking distance of our home). A dozen or so trailheads are within about ten miles of the property. Of course, some of the most spectacular trails are also within easy driving distance within the National Park. Our all season home has natural attractions year round. In the summer, the mountain ambience can't be beat with warm days and cool nights. In the fall, the trees in our area are nothing short of gorgeous, and the most picturesque pumpkins patch imaginable is just down the road, featuring a large pond, farm, picnic area, rustic games, and a beautiful setting that's hard to capture in words. In the winter, the property becomes a snowy wonderland. The wood burning stove is so cozy and charming as you enjoy the falling snow through our two story, gabled windows. And, in the spring, the creeks and rivers are full, and surrounding alpine meadows and mountainsides explode with poppies, lupines, dog woods and other mountain wildflowers. Whichever season you choose to visit Black Bear Lodge, you will be immersed in nature's beauty.
In our home, we include a house binder, chock full of helpful information for you. Included is current Yosemite information, details about the house, local restaurants (including our suggestions and favorites), local markets, etc. Also included is our curated list of local experiences ranging from white water rafting, to a local spa day, to four wheeling, to winter activities and many things in between. We also have a list of the ten best hikes in Yosemite.
For larger parties, or for guests who would like the option of separate spaces, our charming and luxurious Bunkhouse Cottage is available to reserve (contact us for details) adding extra living space. Amenities include Keurig, flat screen tv and wood burning stove. This space is perfect for in-laws, friends, extended family, or anyone who'd like their own space while still close to the rest of the group. Contact owners to arrange. Fee applies.
For guests traveling with horses, our barn may be reserved. Four stalls with stall mats, water and feeders are available, along with tack room, round pen and fenced paddock. Contact owners to reserve either space.
Mariposa is home to this cabin. Mariposa County's Old Stone Jail and Pioneer Yosemite History Center are local landmarks, and the area's natural beauty can be seen at Sierra National Forest and Cold Spring. Traveling with kids? Consider California State Mining and Mineral Museum and Windows on the World Books and Art.
