Watch the sunset disappear over the horizon in our vintage trailer with a propane powered hot tub (or cold plunge on a warm day). With 40 acres to yourself, this is the perfect place to relax after a day hiking in Yosemite. Enjoy being off the grid and have your morning coffee with wandering turkeys or an occasional deer sighting. 40 minutes to the park entrance and 15 minutes to Mariposa. Please note: this trailer is run solely off solar power so you have to conserve energy during the stay. There is no air conditioning or heat but it is breezy since it is on a mountain.Fall asleep under the stars in our off grid vintage trailer with a propane powered hot tub . With 40 acres all to yourself, this is the perfect place to relax after your day in Yosemite. Sip your morning coffee while taking in the mountain views and wake up to deer sightings in the front yard. 40 minutes to the park entrance and 10 minutes to bars and restaurants. PS. Pine tub could also serve as a cold plunge during those hot summer days. :) Please note that this site does run solely on solar power so you may need to conserve energy during your stay (depending on the weather). It does not have heat or AC. The camp site also involves a short walk to the site from your car.

Great Views!
My partner and I loved Barb's space, it was beautiful, private, and very close to town for all of our needs. The perfect balance of secluded and accessible. Would definitely recommend.

Private and Beautiful trailer site!
Waking up in the morning to the wilderness is so peaceful. At night you can see the stars so bright and clear. The trailer was smaller than expected, but had all the essentials! 10 minute drive from the town and road was not too rocky. Sadly we had 1 issue with the toilet as previous people clogged it. However Barb communicated to us about the situation. In the end, she accommodated to us. Which was nice, as you can tell Barb cares about the people!! :) Helpful information: -50 minute drive to Arch Rock entrance to Yosemite. - Bring cutting board, knife, and oil - Portable fans (it was 85-96 degrees) to support air flow in the trailer and to use less of the solar power. -Portal solar power bank to charge fans & any technology Overall, I had a great time at her site! Barb did an amazing job making it a good experience for us!

Great experience
Great stay! A truly nature experience with stunning view and sunset. Cosy caravan, with everything you need for a stay. About 50 min drive to entrance west of Yosemite National park and about 10 min drive to Mariposa to have dinner, get groceries etc. It is a tiny caravan, so expect a small bed and a small shower, but that contributes to the experience. We had a pleasant stay.

High Camp Yosemite w/ Wooden Tub
Cute camper on paper
Super cute and cozy camper on paper, but many issues in reality. Pros: towels, body wash, shampoo, dish soap/sponge, pots, pans, plates, bowls, utensils, cups were provided (no oil, cutting board or knife). Great view. No neighbor's. Nice deck with 2 chairs. Cons: Solar power is great until it gets overcast/rains and therefore not alot of power is generated. We had to conserve throughout the day and night. Be sure to bring flashlights and power banks to charge your electronics! The pump for the water and the wifi is also powered, so keep an eye on that. It rained during our stay and there was a small leak from the roof. The sink in the bathroom is very small. There was no hot water, no heating, and we couldn't get the oven to heat up. However, the stove did turn on and we were able to heat up our food that way. We were unable to get the hot tub to work and it also used up ALOT of the power (battery was fully charged when we got there, and after trying to heat up the hot tub, only had power for about an hour after dusk).

We had a great stay! Instructions were clear and didn’t leave any questions. The trailer was clean and exactly as advertised. The walk from parking to the trailer was short, less than 100 yards. Kitchenettte was stocked with everything we needed. And the view was unbeatable. Would definitely recommend.
