Nice lodge and location. There where some spiderwebs on the ceiling in the bathroom. Besides that very beautiful lodge. Nice bed. The rain in the night made the night more noisy.

Oakhurst Yosemite Stay

We were in town to visit Yosemite for a couple of days. We chose this place in Oakhurst for the proximity to the park. Nice little cabin for two nights and the check in was easy and allowed in early. Steven was great and offered recommendations for restaurants and things to do. The cabin is pretty small and the bathroom is very small area so just be aware and prepare for the situation. It’s very clean and area around it with the restaurant and wine bar is really nice. Again it was nice and convenient and clean so we were pleased with our stay. Just wanted you to know it’s not real big and you need to be prepared for that.

28th Wedding Anniversary gone bad!!!

The last night of are stay at the Queens Inn By The River. We had no electricity in our room. Due to a power outage about 2:00pm. There wasn’t even enough water in the room to flush toilets!!! Above all it was our 28th wedding anniversary!!! I think we should have gotten one night free. Since we had no electricity to the room. The room was very hot to stay in. So we had to stay outside.

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!

Nice place to stay when visiting Yosemite

Enjoyed our stay at Queen's Inn by the River. Comfortable bed, clean room, had everything we needed. Very nice staff. We had a room with a deck on back which is very nice and private. Well-kept grounds. Would definitely stay here again.
