Clearing House (formerly, Clearinghouse) is an unincorporated community in Mariposa County, California.[1] It is located on the north bank of the Merced River 5 miles (8 km) west of El Portal,[2] at an elevation of 1555 feet (474 m).[1]

The Clearinghouse post office operated from 1913 to 1933.[2] The place name comes from the Clearinghouse Mine, so named as it was an exchange place for gold bullion and certificates during the Panic of 1907.[2]

After the construction of the Yosemite Valley Railroad, Clearing House became a railroad stop. The mines continued to operate into the 1950s.[3]
