Yosemite National Park is just around 30 miles from the Casa. The closest entrance is the Arch Rock entrance on the western side of the park.
(During peak season, if this entrance is busy, you have the option of driving into the park through to the South Entrance, which is around 40 miles away from Casa Mariposa.)

6. What are your check in and check out timings?

You’ll be able to check in anytime after 4:00 pm on the day of your arrival. And check out time is 11 am. In other words, your ac cess code will be active from 4 pm on the day of your check in through 11 am on the day of your departure.

7. Do you allow early check-ins and late check outs?
We might be able to let you check in early if we don’t have a guest the night before your check in, or if our cleaners are done with work.
However, we may not be able to allow a late check out because our staff will have to prepare the house for the next guest who’ll be checking in on the day of your check out.

During peak season, and high traffic weekends, there might be a 2-night minimum stay requirement.

9. Does Casa Mariposa allow longer stays?

If you are looking for a longer stay at Casa Mariposa, you can book the house for up to 28 days.
Also note: This property is not available for events/ partying. Having extra guests and disturbing neighbors and the wildlife in the area or damage due to partying can lead to serious consequences.

10. Is there on-site parking?
Yes, we have ample parking at this vacation rental. We have 5 parking space and only ask that you make sure to park only in the designated areas.
Parking on the driveway or in front of the garage would mean blocking the way for essential service vehicles, should there be a need for one.

11. How is the cell phone service in the area?
Your signals might be weak up here at the foothills however, when you’re at the casa, you can use the wifi to stay connected. You can use it to make your calls, work if you need to, and to watch your favorite shows or movies on your favorite streaming platforms.

12. Is the power supply here reliable?

This is one of those vacation rentals in the area that has a generator to take over if there is a scheduled power shut down or an outage.

13. is this property pet friendly?
Sorry it is not. We love dogs but we cannot have them in the house for various reasons. You might be able to find boarding/pet care services in the area.

14. Where can we pick up groceries and other essentials.
When you stay at Casa Mariposa you will have access to a full kitchen, modern appliances, pots & pans and utensils that we have made available for our guests. You’ll also find things like cooking oils, salt and spices in our cabinets.
You can buy your groceries from town on your way in or after a day at Yosemite. Downtown Mariposa is a 13- minute drive from the house. (We usually shop at Pioneer Market or High Country Health Foods.)

15. What can guests do if in need of medical care.
If it’s an emergency, please call 911. Otherwise, Downtown Mariposa has a hospital and pharmacies, and they are all less than a 15 minute-drive away. If all you want is just first aid, we might have what you need.
