Mariposa stay

Robin's Nest was a great place to stay. We had about a one hour drive to Yosemite Valley. Robyn and Trace were fantastic hosts and gave us wonderful information about Yosemite and surrounding area. Our room was spacious, clean and perfect for us. We'd certainly stay there again.

Perfect for two!

Excellent value for a stay for two. We loved the home - just right, great location, and quiet. We would like to give a special shout-out to the owners - they are the best. They are prompt with replies and took time to talk to us about Yosemite and the area surrounding Mariposa. We have never felt so welcome in a VRBO home. Thank you!

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!

Generous, welcoming and thoughtful

The property was outstanding. Comfortable, well furnished and we were not left needing anything. Plenty of resources available to plan your stay if needed and the hosts even asked prior to our visit to see if they could offer any advice. The hosts were so generous and thoughtful at every opportunity. I have never stayed with such lovely people.

Robn was so kind , they both just added so much to an already amazing vacation. Will book again without hesitation!! Great experience!!

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 whole experience at Yosemite

I have been to Yosemite 6 days Most of the time hiking, and just a little bit hanging around. I came without any specific plan what I want to do or see, so the experience of Trace as a park ranger was a great helpful, he helped me a lot with building my day hikes. The nest was exactly what I looked for, Neat and well clean, privte, and gives exactly what I needed after a long day of hiking. And the amazing hospitality of Robn and Trace was unseperted part from whole the great time I had in Yosemite.

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!

Trace and Robin were great hosts! It was an awesome place to stay convenient to town and great restaurants and very quiet. It was clean and comfortable. It had an awesome little kitchenette that we used to make coffee provided by Trace and Robin. Very convenient to either entrance of Yosemite. Very knowledgeable hosts about the area and the National Park. I would to stay there again sometime.

Robn's Nest

The Nest was a beautiful home that was centrally located and the perfect point to support our expeditions to Kings Ca yon,Sequoia, Yosemite and San Francisco. Robn and Trace were perfect hosts and even tossed in some excellent cookies during our stay. This was an excellent vacation.

Amazing hosts, great stay

Great little "in law" studio apartment adjoining the hosts' home (attached to structure but separate in every way). Wonderful, friendly hosts, Trace is a treasure trove of knowledge about Yosemite. And has deep connections to it (ask him about his personal story if you rent the place).Hwy 140 was unfortunately blocked off just prior to my visit, and the hosts contacted me offering me the flexibility to reschedule my trip (I did not, as I had planned from before and did not have the flexibility).I enjoyed my stay very much and will be back to explore Yosemite some more.

Love these folks

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!
