Cedar Lodge

Cedar Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Quiet, clean, good room, nice staff and pretty setting. Our in room coffee machine didn't work so well but we got good coffee in the office. I loved the rose bush full of beautiful dark pink roses in front of our room--didn't see any other rose anywhere near there. And there were 2 pomegranate trees with fruit. I'd never seen a pomegrante tree before. We enjoyed this retreat after our day activities."

"Location, location, location. This was a great place to stay if you are just focused on being at Yosemite. Prices reflect the convenience, but the rooms are very outdated. They have everything you could need on site so that is worth the price, but if you are looking for a more comfortable stay, you will have to travel a distance."

"Beautiful location and facilities. A very nice place to stay. Room was nice, but there were no countertops in the bathroom. That was a big negative to us. We probably won’t return. Restaurants were good. Staff was very polite and friendly."

8/10 Good
"It was nice staying IN the park. Keeping in mind that’s a national park and not a luxury resort I expected less in that respect. The room had cobwebs which is okay but the bathroom smelled of urine, not okay. The shower curtain was about 6-8 inches too long and had a terrible odor to it. The front desk staff just seemed tired and worn out. Not as helpful as they could’ve been. The sports bar/lounge was nice with friendly wait staff. But the beauty of being in such an amazing place seemed to outweigh all the negative. Definitely worth staying there but you need to plan WAY in advance for reservations. I made ours 5 months ago and was told at that time that it was the last available."

INSIDE YOSEMITE! 10 Minutes From Yosemite Valley. Summer and fall openings!

10/10 Excellent
"We thought the location was fantastic. The cabin was conveniently situated within the park and we liked the opportunity to have a nice place at the end of the day where we could be away from people, make ourselves a nice dinner and relax. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was fine, and the washer and dryer were a real plus. We also liked the gas fireplace and the screened porch although we did not have the opportunity to spend much time there. Although the cabin setting is not particularly beautiful, a very short walk leads to a pretty creek with nice rock features and small waterfalls. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay here again if going to Yosemite."
