We wanted to stay near Yosemite but didn't want to pay the high cost AND wanted a room with two queen beds. Clean, updated and had a restaurant in walking distance to grab a bite to eat. NOTE: This place is 1 hour from Yosemite, but the drive is AMAZING!!!

On the main highway into the Big Oak Flat entrance for Yosemite NP so well located for getting into the park. Our room was modern, comfortable and well equipped. There is no dining on site however the Lucky Buck cafe right next door served us well for breakfasts and dinners

We enjoyed our stay at Yosemite Westgate Lodge. The location is excellent, just outside the Big Oak Flat entrance, making it super convenient for exploring the park. Our room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, with everything we needed after long days in Yosemite. The pool and hot tub were a great bonus, and the nearby restaurant made meals easy. Overall, a solid choice for comfort and location
