Welcome to the Ol' Nip's picture gallery

The Ol' Nip is located just off Highway 49 about 7 miles north of Oakhurst, California, within the sphere of Yosemite National Park.  The property is one of five commercial properties that comprise the little town of Nipinnawasee (Valley of the Deer), a once-thriving gold mining town.  The current incarnation of Ol' Nip was originally built starting in 1979 in the style of a Western ghost town hotel.  The property has been an historical and tourist landmark.  Many people remember visiting the Ol' Nip Gold Mining Hotel and Saloon over the years.

The Ol' Nip was purchased by Stephen Olah in 1999.  Stephen is gradually refurbishing the property since that time.  Stephen considers this property to be his 'little bit of heaven' and has great plans for his remodel. 

The hotel sits on 1.59 acres, is zoned commercial for the use as a retail establishment (click here to see the allowed uses according to the Madera County code).  The building has two stories and a basement.
