Walls of glass, a hot tub in the pines, and nowhere you have to be.
Phoenix Triangle is an HGTV-quality A-frame retreat on four private acres of pine above Mariposa, California — 28 miles from Yosemite’s Arch Rock entrance, ten minutes from Historic Main Street.
Outside. A six-person hot tub, warm all year. A gas fire pit. An outdoor rainfall shower. The Weber, and a table for six with a sunset to eat it under. Out on the lawn: giant Jenga, Connect 4 and cornhole, for the hour before dinner when nobody wants to go in yet.
Inside. A kitchen worth cooking in. A 65″ screen and Sonos when the night turns cold and the electric fireplace goes on. A Crosley record player and a wall of books up in the loft. An Xbox and a shelf of board games. Starlink, so nothing buffers.
The furnishings. None of it came out of a rental catalogue. A pine-green kitchen with brass and a farmhouse sink. Green shiplap in the primary suite. A statement chandelier over the round table, a leather sofa, mid-century warmth throughout. Every room was chosen rather than specified — and if you fall for something, you can shop the house.

Yosemite is the backyard.
Tucked into the pines just outside historic Mariposa — quiet and private, yet ten minutes from Main Street and 28 miles from Yosemite’s Arch Rock entrance. Spend your days on granite trails and waterfalls, your evenings in the hot tub. The Mariposa Grove of giant sequoias, Gold Rush history and mountain-town dining are all close by. Exact address is shared after booking.

Directions →Questions about staying near Yosemite
How far is Yosemite, and what is the drive like?
The Arch Rock entrance is 28 miles away — about 45 minutes down Highway 140, following the Merced River most of the way. Yosemite Valley is another ten miles or so past the gate, roughly an hour from the cabin. Leave early: the entrance queue builds through the morning, and an early start buys you the best light in the Valley. Whether you need a reservation to drive into the park depends on the time of year and the rules change, so check the park's current position at recreation.gov/gateways/2991 when you plan your dates.
Is there an EV charger?
Yes — a Level 2 charger on the deck. It uses a SAE J1772 connector, which fits most non-Tesla EVs; Teslas work with the adapter that came with the car. Scan the QR code on the charger to pay for the electricity you use — there is no account to set up in advance.
What is the WiFi like?
Fast Starlink WiFi throughout the house — quick enough for streaming, video calls and a houseful of devices at once. There is a dedicated workspace with a desk too, if something does need catching up on.
Is there a hot tub?
Yes — a hot tub on the deck, available all year. Spa towels are provided, and guests can adjust the temperature at the tub controls; setting it to 100°F or below helps it cool down faster in summer.
What's in the kitchen?
A full kitchen with cookware, bakeware, and a Keurig plus an Aeropress for coffee — cooking oil and other basics are stocked in the pantry too. Most dishes are dishwasher-safe (wine glasses should be hand-washed). There's also a gas grill on the deck with propane provided. Traveling with a little one? A crib and high chair are both on hand.
What are check-in and check-out?
Self check-in with a smart lock. Check in any time from 4pm (as late as midnight with a heads-up), and check out by 10am. Early check-in is sometimes available for a small fee starting at $25 when there's no same-day turnover, and a late check-out of up to an hour can usually be arranged depending on the cleaning schedule.
What is getting to the cabin like?
The last 400 feet is a gentle gravel driveway with a few curves up from Triangle Road. All-wheel drive handles it easily; two-wheel-drive cars are fine too, just take it slow when the ground is wet. There is free parking on site.
Can we bring a pet?
We are not able to host pets. Several of our guests, friends and family have allergies, and keeping the house pet-free is how we look after them. Thank you for understanding.
Is the cabin open in winter?
Year-round. In normal conditions the gravel driveway is easy for AWD and fine for 2WD cars with a little care; during and after a snowfall we recommend AWD or tire chains, and there's a lower parking area you can use if your car isn't snow-ready. The house has two-zone heating and an electric fireplace, so it warms up fast.
