Located outside of Yosemite yet close enough to get to without much trouble. Being a bit further away means that room prices are significantly less than other properties.

Our room was comfortable. Restaurant next door was handy. Our friends had trouble with the heat in their room, but ours was excellent. It is quite a way to Yosemite (50 mi? to Valley), but good alternative to expensive stay in the park.

The grounds are nice, the room is spacious and clean. The lodge is about 20 ish minutes from the West gate entrance (route 120) of Yosemite. If going to Yosemite Valley get an early start to get parking. Once parked plan to take the shuttle around the park.
