The Butterfly Retreat was beautiful! Dylan was extremely helpful with all of our concerns and questions. The rental was tucked back in a private location but was a short walk to bars and restaurants. It was very close to Yosemite which was ideal for our plans. The variety of beds and couches were perfect for our group. Would definitely stay here again! :)

We had a wonderful stay in this beautifully furnished house in Mariposa. The interior is cozy, stylish, and exceptionally clean, and the fireplace made the evenings feel truly special. The location is peaceful and perfectly situated for visiting Yosemite. We felt comfortable from the moment we arrived and would happily recommend this home to anyone looking for a relaxing and well‑equipped place near the park.

A casa é maravilhosa, superou as nossas expectativas. Tem uma churrasqueira no pátio e uma cozinha super equipada, com máquina de lavar louça com sabão disponível. A casa também possui máquina de lavar e secar roupas. As camas e o sofá da sala são muito confortáveis e tudo muito limpo, organizado e bonito.
