I really thought I had made the best choice for our stay when we did our research. I felt the accommodations were not up to stabdards. Our TV didn't work for the two nights we stayed and we were given a phone number to call. We called the number and it just rang and rang. I mentioned this at check out and the two girls did nothing for the inconvenience. During check in I was asked about my service animal and because I didn't answer the question appropriately I was going to be charged so I had to pull up ADA information over the internet but this was in front of other guests so it was kind of embarrassing. The air conditioning unit is loud and other guests partied in the rooms until well after midnight. It just wasn't a great stay or ideal accommodations for what it was.

Mariposa Lodge was clean and spacious and had everything we needed for our long weekend stay while visiting Yosemite! The staff was friendly and kind. I actually sprained my ankle on the last day we were there and the cleaning staff went out of their way to help me get ice and gave me a plastic bag. I appreciate their kindness so much!

We stayed here twice non consecutively in one week. The first stay was amazing! The second stay, the employee (different from first time) was not kind and inappropriate. We arrived at 3:30 (Expedia says check in at 3), and she was getting into a car to leave and stopped to tell us “I’ll be back check in is at 4” and left for 30 mins. Then, when we were able to check in, she told us one room number, and then gave us a key to a different room. When I said it was the wrong key, she laughed and said “I’m r*******”. We took the key and left. Then, this room was sadly not as amazing as the first. The bathroom was much smaller and the shower did not drain quickly at all. We decided to just shower in the pool at our feet because it was easier than dealing with that employee again. Now knowing both experiences, I would try to request the room we had the first time!
Shower took 30 mins to drain, was about an inch high when showering.

The lodge has a quaint charm, and the staff work hard to make guests feel welcome. While our stay was comfortable, we were not given adjoining rooms as a family, and the property itself feels a bit dated. Overall, it was a pleasant one-night stay.
