Perfect spot for access to the National park entrance. Quiet rooms and a pretty creek to swim in below the accommodation
The room was very clean and the Inn quality was great for the cabin-style we chose. We had limited options for choosing a place to stay on our trip and we are very glad we chose to stay here! The location is convenient as well (when the roads aren’t closed to the park)
We stayed in a standard room which was perfect for our needs with a fridge and microwave. It was clean and comfortable and the Inn setting by the river is lovely. Also in easy reach of Yosemite valley.
Great location close to Yosemite entrance. 20 minutes from a little store and restaurant. Good basic ammenities, very clean, very quiet. Ill probably stay here again the next time I go back!
Loved our stay! I visted with my gf (we're lgbt ), and we felt safe and welcomed. The staff was very helpful and great to interact with. Having the kitchenette to prep our food for hikes and the grills by the river for dinner was perfect.
Great access to Yosemite. Lucky Buck’s is a great restaurant not far from the property. Very clean rooms. Friendly, courteous staff. We were very happy with our stay.
What I love most about the property, was the sound of the river flowing on the property...so peaceful. I also liked the outdoor seating with swings and rocking chairs
