Great Stay!

My wife and I had a great stay at Queen's Inn by the River! We were visiting some family in the area and also went to Yosemite while here so the location was perfect for us. Quiet little town with a surprisingly decent array of food options, though the hotel does have its own food offerings. Really happy with the cleanliness of the room, specifically the bathroom was spotless. The staff were all very helpful and service was quick. We appreciated that the property is set a bit back from the main road since it basically eliminated any background noise you'd typically experience. This also granted us few special deer visitors which we were able to observe from window. Overall a very nice experience!

Great place near Yosemite

Charming cabin, pleasing property, free wine tasting. Restaurant and winery are great, owner has homeade bread for sale, and homeade cookies in our room when we checked in. Very close to Yosemite! Restaurant is popular with locals, always a good sign.
