Midpines, CA

Set in the Sierra foothills along Highway 140, Midpines is a small, quiet community just five miles northeast of Mariposa. Home to fewer than 400 people, the area is known for pine-covered hills, scenic acreage, and direct access to Yosemite National Park just up the canyon. Most residents live on spread-out rural properties that offer plenty of privacy and starry night skies, with easy trips into Mariposa for groceries, schools, and local shops.
