An excellent place to stay close to Yosemite entrance! Very nice and very family friendly property. Lots of great family activity opportunities. Great food at their restaurants. All in all an excellent place to stay.
All around great facility, bar, and restaurant. Most staff really helpful. Some were having a bad day. Ate breakfast daily for 4 days. Always tasty, full coffee cup. Last day not so much but the manager listened and took care of the cold food and empty coffee. This was an exception but including it because of the manager who was great.
Very nice and relaxing location, near to Yosemite park gate. Lodge rooms are very inviting and beds were very comfortable, we family of four had a very good time especially there was no TV in the room which made us spent more time exploring nature. Will definitely visit again.
This resort was an absolute dream. The property is gorgeous and well-configured, and the staff is beyond kind and warm. The entire experience was rife with wonderful hospitality and we were glad we ate at the restaurant and partook of the day spa. This time was a couples’ trip; but were already on planning on returning with the entire family!
Beautiful resort with all the amenities—pool, restaurant, spa and just 45-60 mins from Yosemite entrances. It is VERY family friendly, so kids everywhere, which sets a different tone for an adult getaway. You’re also stuck with the restaurant options, as there is nothing close by and the prices are pretty high for meals and drinks. Delightful small market-cafe for morning bites, and the staff there were particularly friendly, but staff were lovely from check-in to out.
I was truly surprised on how nice this property was. We came here because we wanted to visit Yosemite and it’s not too far off from Yosemite village. Appx 30 min drive but the room was really nice and the amenities were super cool. My family and I loved the pool and the dining. Super friendly staff. Aside from dealing with a Karen under our room, everything else was nice.

This resort has beautiful grounds. The rooms are big. We stayed in the room with. King size bed and a beautiful view. The resort has many activities for a family with a game room, heated pools and some easy hiking trails behind the hotel. The resort is about 2 miles to Yosemite entrance and about 40 minutes to Yosemite’s Valley. I would definitely stay here again.
The facility is very nice and has plenty of amenities.

Phenomenal pool and playground set up! We loved the s’mores every night in general store. The property itself was very beautiful, and easy to access Yosemite Park! The rooms could use a little bit of updating, especially the bathrooms. Sofa bed was not super comfortable. Overall fantastic experience and would stay again.

The rooms were nice, bed was not as comfortable as other places we have stayed. Close to Yosemite made sight seeing in the park convenient.
The grounds and rooms were clean and staff was friendly. Went during a slow season so we were able to take advantage of almost every amenity such as the pool, hot tubs, s’mores, rec room, Spa, zip lines etc.
