Mariposa Cabin | Trabucco Gardens - Yosemite Gold Country Stargazing Retreat!

2 Bedroom Cabin in Mariposa

IMPORTANT: IF BRINGING A DOG TELL US BEFORE YOU ARRIVE (PET FEE WILL APPLY)
Conveniently located off Highway 49 in California's Gold Country, on a historic parcel known as Trabucco Gardens.
During the Gold Rush days, Trabucco Gardens was a parcel of land cultivated as a vegetable garden, while Forty-Niners discovered gold in the area. The historic rock walls on property mark the perimeter where the garden once grew.
The joy of discovery continues here today. Now you can discover the vast riches our universe has to offer. Trabucco Gardens, located on 17 acres, provides you with a grand opportunity to stargaze using the observatory telescope. The robotic GO-TO telescope is available during your stay, and included in the rental cost. The open, rural nature of the property, which is considered "above the fog and below the snow", provides you with many clear night opportunities, even in winter.
The Trabucco Gardens House, newly constructed in 2007, is well appointed and available year round. Mariposa, the county seat, which is 10 miles south, has many essential services, along with many wonderful dining, shopping, and historic sightseeing experiences. Yosemite National Park's West entrance is located about 45 minutes away up Highway 140 from Mariposa.
We provide housekeeping service (not daily maid service), before and after your stay. Courtesy towels, paper products, coffee, tea, cocoa and guest soap are provided to welcome you on the day you arrive. Personal key code access provides you with convenience and security. Along with a fold-away sofa bed in the living room, a queen-sized inflatable Aero-Bed is provided for extra sleeping accommodations.
Because of the rural nature of the area, there is abundant opportunity for wildlife sightings, such as deer, wild turkey, coyote, bobcat, birds of prey, and perhaps an occasional bear. Seasonal creeks at the North and South ends of the property flow during winter and spring. Make sure to leave some time in your schedule during your stay for stargazing too.
Using the telescope, beautiful views of the Orion Nebula, Andromeda Galaxy, Hercules Cluster, and many other deep sky objects are yours to behold. The telescope offers a TOUR mode, which takes you to the best and brightest objects in the sky during your stay. Stargazing doesn't get any easier than this.
What on EARTH are you waiting for? Go mining in the INFINITE FRONTIER above! An inspiring adventure of discovery for the young and the young-at-heart is here at Trabucco Gardens.

NOTE: If you are booking through EXPEDIA and are bringing a pet please tell us BEFORE you arrive. There is a required $25 PET FEE that must be paid.
NOTE: If you wish to use the EV Charger for your vehicle let us know at time of booking BEFORE you arrive. We will need to turn on the EV Charger prior to your arrival. A $40 fee must be paid before your arrival to use the EV charger (unlimited charging).

Summary: Fairly cleaned. Air conditioner kept the cabin comfortable but only if you ran the ceiling fan at the same time. We noticed that there was another rental property near the cabin and there was a camper that looked like it could be used as a rental property and there was another small home on the property that appeared to look like someone [the owner] was living there. Ring cameras was on the sides and back of the rental property also. If I had known this I would have not rented this home. It took away from the privacy feel of the property that was promised on the website.
