A fun, historic and refreshing experience. I would recommend this place just for the people but the area and room are worth the visit
Mariposa Institute is the land of unwinding and relaxing with some bohemian sprinkled in. I had the luxury of staying at the Yurt with the puppers. It's a beautiful wooden cabin yurt with carpet, big windows and a fire burning stove to heat the yurt. The yurt is better suited for group activities or stays such as yoga or meditative classes than solo stay. But, with the big open sunroom to watch the stars at night without worrying about getting eaten by mosquitoes, im in. I also booked it for the wood stoved as I miss having camp fires, so this is a fine substitute. Also, it got really cold at…
It was such a great meadow and very peaceful and scenic. Very quite and there was a nice waterfall next to the site. Rayna was very welcoming and helpful. Also, the shower (and pressure) was a game changer. Stayed for 3 nights and felt really at home.
