Beautiful and well-equipped house

The house is roomy (3 large bedrooms), the kitchen is very well equipped, and everything is spacious and nicely decorated. We appreciated the labels everywhere telling us where to find things. The pool was lovely and we even had a deer visit us on the back terrace!

Was a good stay... Excellent communication between property manager for check in and questions etc. The house, pool and property are wonderful. There was a housecleaning issue that needed to be addressed... I contacted the "manager" and she resolved issue for most part.. I was satisfied. Would stay again in future.

Wonderful Home for Family Vacation!

We rented the home for 4 nights so our family could hike Yosemite. The drive was expected, about 1 hour, 15 minutes to the park entrance. The home was 15 minutes away from downtown Mariposa and 25 minutes from downtown Oakhurst (which had Vons, McDonalds, Jack in the Box, etc). The home was beautiful! Absolutely spotless. We don't cook but if you did, the kitchen was huge. There was so much room for a family to spread out. The best part was the pool, it was exactly what the pictures showed, felt more like an estate. Perfect for a late afternoon swim for kids after a day of hiking. And beautiful to sit out back. The only negative was driving up to the home from the main road. It was about one mile and very remote. Many of the neighbor properties were very rundown so we were not sure what to expect when we arrived. But once we pulled in the driveway, it was lovely. Again, very remote, quiet. Would absolutely recommend!

Amazing Place To Stay

This place was 5 star all the way around. We would highly recommend it. Everything including the communication with the property manager was great! Our only suggestion would be to offer sheets instead of just a duvet. The dirt road was rough amd made us think we were on the wrong road, but keep going. The property is at the end.

Beautiful home

Niv and Nav’s Hillside Estate is a lovely and clean home with just about everything you would need as if you were in your own home! We were welcomed with a bottle of wine, and the clean and well stocked kitchen had enough coffee for our family of coffee drinkers, tea, popcorn, as well as ingredients for baking which we didn’t have time to use! Niv responded very quickly to our questions and was made sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. We will definitely return to stay here again and highly recommend their property!

Birthday visit

House and grounds are beautiful and very clean. Problems with pool cleaner was plugged and pool very dirty. My husband cleared and ran next day perfect. Pool loungers gone. I understand others ordered but not here for our trip.pool was reason we stayed. Since it was my birthday next day was scheduled for bass lake then next day had to check out by 11. So for us pretty expensive trip for not having pool. For people going to rent I’m sure everything would be fine. Peaceful, beautiful, clean and a pool. Last mile of road really rough but worth it. Nib and Nav great enjoy your try!

Nice summer vacation

We enjoyed staying in the house. Kids loved trampoline and swings. We tried some blackberries and blueberries from the orchard. We swam in the pool and figured out how to turn on the waterfall fountain. However the water in pool was not super warm. Next time I’d contact the management to make sure the heating is on.

Beautiful estate near Yosemite, great for families with kids

Our family greatly enjoyed our stay at Hillside Estate! Beautiful landscape, spacious house, great pool and plenty of spaces to explore and play for kids: orchard with berries and fruit, rocks to climb on, swings with amazing views, slide and trampoline. The house was very clean, the kitchen had everything we needed, and we really appreciated the small details like the Keurig coffee pods and the bottle of wine.

Mariposa Estate

We all really love this place, beautiful home, great pool and nice quiet location. We were able to listen to the birds and the breeze through the trees in the mornings. The house itself was clean and well appointed. The drive to Yosemite isn't bad (~1hr), and it's nice to be near the small town of Mariposa. I wish I could give this place more than five stars...don't hesitate to stay here.

Beautiful Home

My husband and I stayed at this home for 4 days. It was a mini vacation. To get to the property the road was very rough, but once we got to the house it was all worth it. The property is gorgeous. The pool area was like being in a private space away from the hubbub of city life. The house is very large and very clean. The furniture was tasteful and comfortable, as was the bed. I loved the large bathroom and huge shower. My favorite thing to do was sit out on the patio, checkout all the beautiful plants and watch the sun go down.

Great House near Yosemite!

Spent 3 nights here with my wife and our 4 year old daughter & we all loved it. It's a huge house with a ton of open space. It feels a bit sparsely appointed, but it totally works. There's lots of room to move around, to play in, and to just sit & enjoy the space. The kitchen great to cook in (2 stoves!), and this would be an awesome house to enjoy with a couple families. Wonderful landscaping of the pool & patio area, while the rest of the property has been left mostly wild (which was really nice). The pool was beautiful, but could feel a bit chilly in the mornings & evenings. Once you've been in for a bit, it's fine. If you're someone who wants to be hop into a warm bathtub-like pool, though, it might be worth reaching out to the owners to pay for additional pool heating. Owner was very communicative & responding immediately to our only question. The house is situated between Oakhurst & Mariposa, which was nice because we could easily visit either. It's about an hour to the West gate of Yosemite, which was a nice easy drive. Our daughter loved the house & hasn't stopped asking when we can return. Looking forward to visiting again soon! I would definitely recommend this for a family (or small group) who's looking for some time in nature, while still having some great amenities & open space.

Great house in the Yosemite area

The house is beautiful and depicted properly in the pictures. It is in a secluded area and about an hour drive to Yosemite, but we enjoyed the scenic drive and the lovely home to return to in the evenings. Niv was very helpful and easy to work with. Highly recommend this home!
