We were given a groupon from a friend. Last minute, we decided to make a trip to Yosemite. About an he drive from Berkshire Inn. Close to a cute town for food and beverages. This room was very comfy. Owners are very friendly and welcoming. This was my first stay in a Bed and Breakfast. Different experience than a hotel. Everyone should try it once. We had room 3. Private bathroom and door leading to the balcony. Out of respect for this facility, it's hard to feel "at home" like a huge hotel. Comfy family feeling, hard to adjust when you have lived alone for 6 years. With this being my first Bed and Breakfast, I don't have much to compare. Overall a great experience! Friendly and gleaming hospitality. Beautiful sunset view :) read more

Great stay, the accommodation was great, the atmosphere very warm and the landscape beautiful! The highlight of the stay were the amazing hosts, welcoming and gracious, THANK YOU! read more

Chris and Brittany were friendly hosts, and accommodating. The property, however needs maintenance and updating both outside and inside. Peeling paint, etc. With what we pay to stay there, I think it would be in better shape. Though they have a no pet policy, they have a dog and cat that roams freely inside the house. We have allergies to cats and had we known they were around we would not have booked there. read more

We spent three lovely evenings in this comfortable Inn and were able to explore Yosemite! The wonderful couple who were our hosts are friendly, helpful, and delightful people. They serve a gorgeous breakfast and are ready to meet any need you may have. The bed was comfy and the towels were thick and brand new! Our room was cleaned each day. We loved it all! read more

A beautiful hideaway in the mountains with wonderful local hosts. Very comfortable beds . Serving a tasty and filling breakfast each morning read more

Decent sized room with bare necessities for unit 4. Clean and bed is awesome. Shower is circa 1980 and dated with a bar across the top 5 feet. Hit my head 2x as I had a long day hiking and need glasses to see. Due to covid all we got was mandarin oranges, coffee and danish from supermarket served outside. Miss the warmth of pre covid era where B&B we were able to sit around the tables and get to know the owners and travel companions. Slept and grabbed breakfast and left. Total time spent 12 hours for $170 read more

Excellent launching spot for visits to Yosemite. This B&B is charming and gracious. The family is welcoming, breakfasts are delicious. Enjoy the art work in the living room. read more

You need to stay at the Berkshire Inn if you are planning a trip to Yosemite. Chris and Brittany are amazing hosts - super friendly and helpful. Our room was very clean and spacious. Wifi and shower worked wonderfully. Brittany cooks the guests a top-notch breakfast as well. Unfortunately our stay was cut short due to wildfires but we will definitely stay at the Berkshire Inn when we return to Yosemite. read more

Berkshire Inn - Breakfast egg scramble - Hotels Near Me - Groveland, California

The Berkshire Inn is a wonderful B&B hosted by a lovely couple Chris and Brittany Yates. Very welcoming and large rooms with comfortable beds located off Hwy 120 on the way to Yosemite and a few miles from Groveland. Sitting on the porch watching the sunset looking at the forest tree tops is very beautiful. Brittany serves a lovely breakfast. A definite place to return to. read more

Lovely place, wonderful proprietors :) Clean room, wonderful fresh moutain water!. We will definitely come stay again:) read more

Motel room with no amenities. No TV, no internet, no phone, thin walls, ample dry rot and chipped paint, all at full service hotel prices. I have never written a negative review in all the years I've been on Yelp, but was inspired after my interaction with proprietor, Chris, when we could not get internet in our room, or anywhere else on the property. I asked him about the problems we were having and if there was a place where we could get a signal. He replied with, "...the router's in the kitchen, would you like to see my kitchen?", and, "...if you want a hotspot, go to the top of the mountain..." Ridiculous and rude. read more

What a gem. Chris and Brittany were fabulous hosts and the place had everything we needed for our rafting send off. Clean comfy and convenient. Highly recommended. read more

Awesome place - great owners - beautiful room - scrumptious breakfast!!! Our car broke down and Chris waited up past mid-night to let us in :) They also helped us with rentals the next day and even drove us up to the rental place 45 mins away!!! Beautiful views of the hills from the balcony with deer trotting on the paths... Bike dirt track are across the hotel if you want to race your bikes ... Excellent wifi - In winters - the 2 night stay is free :) Thanks folks and we'll stay here again ... Cheers, Anu read more

This Inn is a bit hard to find (the sign is covered by bushes but look for the vacancy sign which is still showing)...you have to enter a parking lot and then find the road that heads steeply up a hill. It's worth the effort -- clean, comfortable, good wi-fi, and a spa tub that you can reserve for free for an hour in an adjacent building. (Do it!) Great views over the bay. We enjoyed our stay! read more

Our stay at The Berkshire Inn was relaxing and enjoyable. They employ a beautiful friendly dog named Buster, he greets you in the parking lot with a tennis ball in his mouth and then checks in on you daily. There is a complimentary continental breakfast every morning with waffles, cereal, bagels, coffee, juice fresh melons etc. The couple who runs the inn is informative, friendly and lovely. We will be back. read more

See all

Great and most comfortable location very near to Yosemite. Feels like home with private hotel comfortable rooms with in suite bathrooms with private entrance through lovely French Doors. Set into a lovely mountaintop with a breathtaking view from the decks or the gazebo. Breakfast is self serve coffee and juice and simple fare, sit round a big family style dining table and visit with other guests. Homey style living room with tv. Great experience and we will return!! read more

My husband and I planned a quick getaway to hike Yosemite and I found the Berkshire Inn on Groupon. We absolutely loved this place and its accommodations. Even though outside of Yosemite about 20 minutes, it was accessible and the drive beautiful. The room was fabulous. We stayed in room #5 that had a private bath and french doors that opened out onto the balcony. It was located around the back of the house, so it was more private than the other rooms. Continental breakfast was just right to start our day before heading into the park. We would definitely stay here again. Groveland the little town located two miles from Berkshire has some cute eateries including the IRON saloon for breakfast and their little grocery store makes delicious fresh sandwiches to pack away for hiking treks. read more

Nice place. Comfortable, clean and cozy. The breakfast was vegetarian and with a lot of choices. Wifi signal was not very strong in the room, but I'm glad there was Wifi at all. The Inn is located just outside Groveland, 45 minutes from Yosemite Valley. read more

My boyfriend and I stayed here for two nights in December, thanks to an awesome Groupon deal. We found the place charming, clean, quiet, and pretty much perfect in every way. The only (slight) downside is that it is about 20 minutes away from the park, but it was barely an issue! The drive up through the pass and down into the valley makes it worth it every time. And both nights, we came home from hiking and exploring to a toasty room which was amazing. We stayed in room 4 which was located on the first floor and around the back of the house. It was very private. We also woke up each morning to a complimentary continental breakfast and when they ran out of Eggos, they even offered to make us eggs or real which was very kind! I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars. If you're looking for a nice quiet B&B outside of Yosemite, seriously just stop looking and just stay here. I know we'll definitely be back. read more

If you're like us and decide to go to Yosemite at the last minute and can't find a room anywhere, give these guys a call! They don't have on-line reservations so you have to call them, but it was worth it. We found a room two weeks before Memorial Day Weekend, 40 minute drive away from the park entrance (this is actually close!), UNDER $150 a night! The bed and breakfast is family run, with about 5 or so rooms, each room with a private bath. The bed was large and comfy, the bathroom neat and clean, every day we had clean towels and the bed made up. Each room had two doors one for a private entrance outside and another into the house, both doors with a deadbolt lock. There is a continental breakfast at 8:00 am with cereal, toaster waffles, fruit, bagels, coffee, and tea. I have paid more for discount motels before and didn't have something this nice. Very nice and friendly environment and would recommend to anyone needing a place to stay close to Yosemite. read more

My husband and i checked in on a Friday night and were greeted with a friendly smile and a glass of wine. Kevin, the Inn Keeper went out of his way to make my husband and i feel at home. When our car broke down in the parking lot, he drove us to the meeting we HAD to attend at 6am the following morning. When we returned, he helped us look for towing companies for hours. The rooms are clean and cozy, the views are beautiful and the continental breakfast provided variety and was delicious. Great value for $135/night! If you ever need to go to Yosemite and would like to stay in a Bed and Breakfast, this is the place to come! We will definitely come again! read more

What a cozy sweet B&B. Chris and Brittany were very welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. I liked how quiet it was, and how personable it is to stay with owners. They care more about your satisfaction and it was lovely chatting with them. We rented Room 9 with 2 queen size beds, private bath with Hetch Hetchy water, and a TV. Nice hardwood floors, and exposed wooden beams. My parents rented Room 1, and they were happy with it as well. Both had private entrances. Their older Lab is adorable, his name is Buster and he loves to play ball. Nice views from the deck, and simple continental breakfast with your stay. We took advantage of the Buy 1 get 1 free, during the winter. Will definitely book here again. It took about 45 minutes to Hetch Hetchy, to the Valley, and less than that to Toulumne Grove. Dinner in Groveland, which is only a 5-minute drive. read more

We stayed one night. Made a reservation with 3 days notice in July which must be the peak season, and got a queen-size bed with bath, plus a mattress for a 3rd adult, for about $150 I think. Very helpful in putting the extra mattress in. Very clean throughout. Well-stocked continental breakfast at 8am, but they offered more than once to serve earlier if we needed it. Free, powerful Wi-Fi (ask for the code), no TVs in room but they have two "living" rooms, one with TV and one without, and ample magazines, books, etc. The only downside is it's not in town, you'll have to drive to get dinner. But that also means it's quieter. All-in-all I recommend this nice B-and-B. read more

This place was total godsend for us ! We were rained out of our camping plans and we were turned away from Tioga Pass so we couldn't reach our hotel we made a reservation at. We saw the lights on and drove up ! Chris let us come in and use the phone and let us know he had a room available. We ended up staying two nights and really appreciated all the tlc this place had to offer ! The breakfast included was super thoughtful as well. Thank you Chris and Brittney ! read more

Nice homey spot on the way to Yosemite National Park. Breakfast was large and had lots of choices. Room is very clean and spacious, bed super comfy. Only lost one star due to the jacuzzi jets being down. read more

I LOVED my stay at the Berkshire Inn. The grounds were so beautiful with stunning views and the breakfast had a nice selection. No complaints whatsoever. If I ever return to Yosemite, I will definitely stay here again. read more

We decided last minute to head up to the Sierras to watch the meteor shower. Berkshire Inn had availability. What a wonderful find for a reasonable price! We even watched the meteors from their moonroof! Saw the biggest shooting stars we've ever seen! Our hosts even offered to put up chairs for our viewing but we brought our own. They also offered flashlights to get up there! The next morning we woke from our clean and comfy bed to a very nicely laid out breakfast before heading out to Yosemite for a day hike. Would highly recommend this place for a close to Yosemite visit! read more

Great spot and very nice people that run it. The room was cozy and clean. It was great to come back to after a day out in nature, and nice to have breakfast out on the balcony. Took about 30 minutes to get to Yosemite, and it's located just a couple miles from Groveland, where there are a variety of restaurant choices (they mostly all close around 9). The breakfasts were fine, mostly different types of breads, and the walls were a little thin, but overall a good place to stay. We would come back again! read more

We spent two nights at the inn recently and absolutely loved it. We brought our two teenagers with us, and they were skeptical of staying here since they have never experienced a bed and breakfast before. It was such a quiet, relaxing place to unwind after our long busy days at Yosemite. We played cards on the balcony and hung out in the hammocks. My son and husband played horseshoes and basketball. Chris and Brittany are so sweet. We loved chatting with them about the history of the inn. Also, we love Buster, their dog. The town of Groveland is very cute. We drove into town one day to eat dinner. We highly recommend the Berkshire Inn. read more

I stayed there last night and from the get-go it was great.... an easy reservation on the phone, good signage to the parking, check-in was a breeze. My room was great! Four poster bed, rocking chair, double door to the outside, my own bathroom, free wifi. Plus two "living rooms" and a dining area. Chris and Brittany were so warm and welcoming - I needed an umbrella today, they loaned me one (and I'm not staying there tonight! I'm miles away but will drop it off tomorrow). I loved the gazebo and the sunset! I got chatting with a couple of other residents, and soon 7 of us were sitting around the nice big table swapping travel stories, it was wonderful! I will return and tell all my friends.... read more

Friendly, helpful staff, and clean, cozy accommodations. Located in the small gold rush era town of Groveland, Ca., which is about 25 miles from the main entrance of Yosemite National Park on Highway 120. The continental breakfast was very good, and offered many choices. After spending a glorious day in the park, we returned to the inn and rested before heading into 'downtown' Groveland (about 2 blocks long) and had great dinner at the oldest saloon in California, The Iron Door Saloon, and enjoyed a wonderful evening of live music & dancing, even though we were so tired from the park, and had only intended to eat and return to the inn. We've decided to make this little town, it's historic saloon and the Berkshire Inn a regular destination, whether or not we plan on visiting Yosemite. The people there are so friendly, and very willing to share the history, and the location of their favorite swimming hole. We never felt like tourists because everyone made us feel right at home. Only about a 3 hour drive for us, The Berkshire Inn will become our home away from home whenever we need to get away from it all and have a good time, especially when we have little time to do it. Their rates are very low in comparison to other accommodations available in the area of the same class, which range from $185 to over $300 per night and at $135, were very close to the rates of the economy class, and lowered accommodations available. Our stay was just after the busy season ended, so in season rates may be higher. read more

We came to the Berkshire Inn based on reviews from other people on Google and Yelp, and when we arrived, we were excited that it was close to Yosemite and had a feel that they were going to take care of us really well. The people were great in introducing us to the place and taking us to our room, but then it went all downhill from there. We went at the end of July, so it was hot. There was no A/C in our room. The bed seemed like it was old and slumped to the middle, but they tried to fix it with a 4 inch memory foam topper that made the problem worse. If you weren't in the middle of the bed (and only one of us could be!), then you were sleeping on a slant that kills your back the next morning, not to mention the loss of sleep. Shower went hot/cold for the duration of both of our showers. This could've just been our room, but our experience remains the same. The location was great, the service was great, but the quality and facilities experience was poor. read more

Wow! What an amazing place. We enjoyed soaking in the hot tub while enjoying a bottle of wine. The town of Groveland is just minutes away if one wants some mountain night-life. Our fuel pump went out in our vehicle and Chris the owner and his friend Collin helped us repair it!! Thanks again for your great hospitality and your help on getting us back on the road. Look forward to coming back to stay again and hopefully it is soon!! read more

The Berkshire Inn is perfectly situated for Yosemite hiking and Groveland dining. Not only is it reasonable in price and quietly hidden for peace, but managed by conscientious Kevin. Who could ask for more? I will be back asap. read more
