Perfect Little Hideaway in Mariposa
Absolutely a 5 star experience. Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood just outside of downtown Mariposa and perfectly poised for launching day trips to Yosemite. The gracious, friendly hosts are lifelong locals who are glad to make suggestions for dining, shopping and exploring the area including Yosemite. The unit is quiet and spotlessly clean and is supplied with linens, a comfortable bed, coffee maker, microwave and hot plate and full size fridge. Bright and airy with lovely views out to the pool and garden, it's really the perfect little spot to recharge at the end of a day of sighteeing or begin the day with a cup of coffee watching the sun rise. Would highly recommend and would absolutely stay here again!

The coziest home away from home near Yosemite. Hosts Robn and Trace are really great people and their recommendations and knowledge about hikes in the area is a huge plus. There are so many sweet, thoughtful touches in the guest house that make it the perfect place to stay. This was our second time visiting and we can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful private place with great hosts
We had a great stay at Robin’s Nest. The place was very clean and spacious for our two nights. Trace and Robn were hospitable and provided plentiful suggestions for visiting Yosemite. The hosts were available when we needed them, and they gave us space when necessary. We would love to stay here again!

First time in Mariposa
We really enjoyed our stay at Robin's Nest. The place was very clean and very cozy. All of the amenities were there, just as stated online. And the pictures you see online are what you see in person. But to be honest, it's way better in person. We had no issues with our stay. I have the feeling we'll be back!

Robin and Trace made me feel so welcome and safe… being a solo traveler, that was important. It’s about an hour drive into Yosemite from here but it’s a beautiful drive so it goes fast. Wildlife can be seen around the property and you just feel miles and miles away from the BUSY CITIES AND EVERYDAY LIFE. The property is very clean and the pool was a huge bonus. The owners were available when I needed them and left me alone otherwise. I recommend visiting Mariposa Coffee and having dinner at Fredericks of Savoury’s. What a lovely find Robin’s Nest was and is.

My husband and I stayed here for a couple of nights while visiting Yosemite National Park. We were very comfortable and had everything we needed. This property is just so charming. The hosts are so very nice and welcoming and go above and beyond to make sure you enjoy your stay. After hiking in Yosemite, we were able to enjoy the pool in their garden area which they are so generous to share with their guests. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend to others!

Stay Here! Stay Here! Stay Here!
This was an absolutely perfect place to stay. It looks good online and it comes to life when you walk through the gate to the back yard where the entrance to your cottage is. The cottage is spotless and loveley, the couch and the bed are incredibly comfortable, and the sheets are dreamy soft. There is plenty of privacy and so many places to sit and drink coffee or eat outside. The gardens are beautiful and it so peaceful and quiet. You do get use the pool anytime if you'd like! The hosts are so kind and generous and getting to meet them and visit with them was a huge surprise bonus for our trip. They were also so helpful with regards to planning pur time on Yosemite. While we used the Robin's Nest as iur homebase for multiple day trips to Yosemite, we really enjoyed the town of Mariposa as well. Lots of great little local shops and some delicious food in unique restaurants. Stay Here!

Wonderful location . Ease to Yosemite was quintessential. Best part of the stay were our hosts. Couldn’t ask for more welcoming, friendly hosts that go above and beyond to ensure your experience is the best it possibly can ! Trace was integral in info about Yosemite. Robn was so kind , they both just added so much to an already amazing vacation. Will book again without hesitation!! Great experience!!

My spouse and I stayed here during our long weekend exploring Yosemite. It had everything we needed to make simple meals and relax after a long day of activities. The hosts were welcoming, kind, and very responsive. They provided a wealth of information about the park that was super useful. We recommend if you're visiting the area!
