The TreeHouse When you arrive at Wild Oak Farm you'll leave the hustle and bustle of your daily life behind. The 700-foot long driveway leads you to the Tree House which is perched in the center of the 30 acre property. Enter the doorway under the house and ascend the spiral staircase into your vacation retreat. The Tree House exemplifies rustic elegance; from the massive granite fireplace and incense-cedar tree that are the centerpoints of the entire house, to the well-appointed bedrooms and full amenity kitchen.

The Tree House is a three bedroom, two bath house, perfect for families and friends looking for the unique vacation home with lots of special touches. Each bedroom has views to the majestic old-growth oaks that grace the property. The master bedroom features a king-sized bed and a sliding door that opens directly onto the wraparound deck. The Loft Room has a queen sized bed on the main floor and a full sized bed in the sleeping loft (a kid favorite). The Triangle Room has a full-sized bed, and features bright story quilts crafted by South African villagers. The Tree House comfortably accomodates six adults and can accomodate more in the loft and the sleeper couch in the family room.

The house is wrapped by a wooden deck that provides views into the surrounding mountains. You can access the deck via the french-doors in the kitchen. The hammock on the back deck is a shady retreat in the summertime. The 5-person hot tub has views to the stars and the surrounding mountains.

Location The house is in the quaint mountain community of Midpines, close to Highway 140. The Tree House is tucked into the center of the thirty private acres that make up Wild Oak Farm. Located at 2,800 feet in elevation, Wild Oak Farm gets occasional snow in the winter and offers great hills for sledding!

Midpines makes an ideal base for outdoor recreation. A short walk (or bike, or drive, or ride) up the main road by the farm brings you to the Sierra National Forest Boundary. Much of the surrounding area is Sierra National Forest or BLM land, laced with hiking trails and Forest Service roads. The Merced River is 10 minutes away and provides rafting (in the spring), swimming (from late Spring until Winter rains), fishing (pretty much all year round), wild life, hiking, camping, solitude. Once you pull into the Tree House there are no crowds, no traffic - yet the restaurants, shops and historic streets of Mariposa are only ten miles to the West, and Yosemite lies a mere sixteen miles to the East.
