Hi, I’m Al Palisca and I worked for the National Park Service in Yosemite, for 27 years. My son, brother and I constructed this house using our finest craftsmanship, completing it in 2010. After retiring, I decided to spend the summer months in the Czech Republic where I run a program mentoring boys into manhood. This provides the opportunity to open my house to visitors heading to Yosemite. This is my home. A recent guest commented that coming here feels like visiting a friend’s house. That review makes me feel happy and proud to offer such a relaxing experience. So, make a reservation, come on over, and make yourself at home.
What's Nearby: - Downtown Mariposa, rich in Gold Rush history and charming local boutiques and eateries. - Adventure awaits with proximity to outdoor activities, including hiking, fishing, whitewater rafting, mountain biking all in addition to exploring Yosemite.. - A range of local wineries and breweries to explore the taste of Mariposa’s local produce.
