The lodge is very convenient if you are planning on going to Yosemite as it is only 5 minutes away from the entrance. The staff is wonderful and the store in the lobby is excellent. It has everything you could possibly need.

Location is hard to beat. The tents are close together. So if you are a light sleeper, this is not for you.

Nice place and nice people but when you pay a good amount for a hotel room you don't expect to get dinged $10 for Wi-Fi. And that's only good for two devices.

We were assigned to the Juniper building. There was active dirt excavation with loud construction equipment through the day. There is no daily room service. The wifi is an extra $10 per day and does mot work reliably. Due to its location close to Yosemite El Portal entrance this place is able to get away with high rates and substandard service.

The property is nice and location is excellent. Only reason I give it 4 star because they charge $10 for the WiFi, which feels cheap, especially you already paid $400 for the room. Also, not much choices for the food. Just a pizza store and a mediocre restaurant. Otherwise I enjoy the stay in this beautiful place.

Love the property and the amenities! Food options are lacking, and the food staff is just average. This really doesn’t matter though, as everything else was incredible.

The property was in a perfect location to head in and explore Yosemite Park. The only bummer is the rooms took a while to be ready and the walls were super thin (so you could hear people walking up and down the stairs at night). All of that is to say, you're not really going to stay there for the incredible experience in your room, so I wasn't too upset as the majority of my time was spent outdoors.

Wifi costs extra, and the TV only shows local channels (can’t watch Netflix). There’s a Tesla supercharger on site, very convenient. While the hotel is on the river, you cannot go down into it and only certain rooms have river view. Close to park entrance.
