We live in California just an 1 1/2 hours away from Yosemite. This is the first time we have ever spent the night while visiting. Our son & his wife were visiting and love to hike. This was the perfect choice for us. Right in the valley with incredible views and close to where we wanted to be. The advantage of staying inside the park was well worth it. There’s a store, gift shop, a couple of options to eat and plentiful parking. The rooms have soap, lotion, shampoo, conditioner and shower gel available in dispensers. An iron and board, mini fridge, coffee pot are included. Our room also had a balcony which we didn’t use because it was too chilly. The Base Eatery was a little disappointing. They were out of many options for dinner. One of the soups was too spicy and was mostly onion but was supposed to be posolè. The pot pie soup lacked flavor. The breakfast bagel sandwiches were so overcooked that the bagels were rock hard. The oatmeal was delicious and plentiful. We had difficulty accessing the wifi. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

The staff locked the wrong room and when we asked them about it they was confused and wasn’t even sure about what was going on it took them so long to get the room open again and they said it wasn’t there fault

Yosemite lodge stay

We loved everything about what Yosemite had to offer. The accommodation was in a great location and was very comfortable. There were a few maintenance issues but that didn’t impact our stay.

What can you say. You’re in Yosemite sitting on your balcony with amazing views in your face dark skies and stars with Huge El Cap down the road. Rooms are very worn and rustic but clean beds and towels. Worth it

This property requires some upkeep in cleanliness and plumbing. The carpet was dirty, and could've been the probable cause of the odd smell in the room. The sink looked like it hadn’t had a proper scrubbing, and the towels were sticky. But the main problem was the clog in the tub, the water would not drain while you showered, so they sent a person to unclog it but they weren’t able to fix it since it didn’t seem like they had the proper tools do so, so it stayed that way during the entirety of our stay. Would not stay here again even though location wise it is convenient, but for the price you’re paying, it’s DEFINITELY not worth it.

Great location to access trails right from location or taqke the free shuttle to where you want. Not much of a night life but if you like hiking, this is place to stay.
