We finally returned after 3 years and really loved this stay! It was short but so sweet…read more This time we stayed in a premium accessible suite which I'd totally choose again. They're described as "Tiny home-style accommodations offering additional space and a little more privacy." That additional space made a big difference for the four of us! The kitchen had a 2-burner stove which was really nice since we didn't have to rely on cooking over a fire. Each staff member we interacted with was just so kind and friendly. My kids especially loved the scavenger hunt that was mentioned at check-in. It was a fun way to explore the property more than we ever did and of course the "prize" was the best motivation! There was also a cute mini pumpkin patch set up for a photo opportunity. We've only ever gone when it's cold so I wasn't sure how it would be when it's hot. When we got into our suite, the blasting AC felt amazing! And having dinner outside on the patio deck was just perfect weather. The gas fire pit on the patio provided a nice ambiance and then we roasted marshmallows for s'mores over a wood-burning fire below us, overlooking the little pond. My kids absolutely loved this and also enjoyed stargazing. We did our best to pack for our impromptu trip but I didn't have to worry much because they also have a small general store and kitchen serving a variety of food. Complimentary coffee and granola are still provided in the clubhouse in the mornings! Their 2-hour charging for EVs was a great perk we utilized as well. Thank you, AutoCamp Yosemite for some new core memories for our family. It was such a nice getaway for us :)

Okay, I was skeptical going into this. Glamping? But seriously this place was so rad. My daughter…read morewas in heaven. They have air streams, cabins, and "adventure tents". We wanted the camping experience. But Yosemite is difficult for camping reservations so we went this route. And I have to say it added to the entire Yosemite trip. A couple downsides. One, is that it's an hour from the central hub of Yosemite. And when you consider how crazy finding parking can be in Yosemite right now that is a pretty serious negative if I'm honest. But. It's a gorgeous drive. Two, you have to use wagons to haul your gear to your space. We luckily were not very far, but it did take us several trips. And lastly, I really wish that the bathrooms for the tents was separate from the clubhouse. Basically the bathrooms for the pool and the clubhouse and the adventure tents are all one and the same. Would've liked the adventure tents to have their own bathroom, giving a little more privacy. There were several events while we stayed there (I do think it's a cool place to have an event or even a wedding), but the people from the events were constantly coming in and out of the bathrooms. Shared bathrooms aren't my favorite to begin with. Trying to take a shower while event goers are popping in and out... Not my fave. All that said, I really enjoyed the vibe of the place overall. Some of the air streams and cabins are situated on a cute little pond.. Aaaaand. The pool made us all happy at the end of the day. The entire staff here is so dog friendly. The clubhouse had really cool little areas. And was very clean. The entire staff was friendly and helpful. The clubhouse has a tiny kitchen with a few nibbles. As well as a bar. Highly recommend the margaritas! Pizza was solid as well. Cute little gift shop with some snacks and essentials and souvenirs. I haven't stayed in Curry Village, but we saw it when we did the mist trail and yikes. This place is so much nicer than the tents, the pool, or the facilities there. If you're looking for a glamping/adventure tent situation I would recommend auto camp. We want to check out their location in Sequoia next!

On August 20, 2020 we received a mandatory evacuation notice for Scotts Valley, CA due to a raging…read moreforest fire close to our home. We worked our way east and spent two nights at the Tenaya Lodge, just outside the South entrance to Yosemite National Park. This is supposedly a very up-scale hotel and the facilities were very nice, but not worth the several hundred dollars per night that we paid. The restaurant food was just so-so. Access to the Park is severely limited due to the virus. An advanced reservation is required to enter, but we found it to be impossible to get one. We even drove to the Park entrance and pleaded with the staff (claiming we were forced evacuees) but to no avail. To be so close and not be allowed in was extremely disappointing. I went to Travelocity to book subsequent nights and found the River Rock Inn in Mariposa, CA. This historic inn is Mariposa's oldest motel and was constructed in 1941. It is about a block off the main road (hiway 140) and is quiet and peaceful. We did not know when we would be allowed back to our home, so our reservation had to be open ended. I talked to Stephanie Erikson, the owner, about not specifying a check out day and she was very accommodating. Our room, actually a two-room suite, was great; very clean with comfortable beds. Free Wi-Fi that was very reliable, Direct TV, refrigerator, and a wall mounted air conditioner that was quiet - unlike the AC unit in the Tenaya Lodge. The housekeeping was excellent and our hosts, Stephanie and Keith made us feel very welcome. Their customer service was excellent also. We liked it much better than the Tenaya Lodge. There are several good restaurants in town so we ate well! We discovered a great way to get to Yosemite: a bus service called YARTS (Yosemite Area Regional Transit System) runs frequently from Merced to the Yosemite Visitors Center. There are three stops in Mariposa - one only 80 yards from our room. It takes about 90 minutes from Mariposa to Yosemite Valley. AND, the best part is that no Park reservation is required. Just get on the bus, pay the driver, and you are delivered to the Visitor's Center. Since the park shuttle bus is not running now, you can rent bikes at the Center (with a smart phone app) or hike around the Park. YARTS told me their busses have room for only one bike. Finding the River Rock Inn was the best part of the evacuation. After 5 nights there, we were allowed back to our home. Actually, the fire never got closer than 5 miles from our house. We were very lucky and grateful.

It's still about a 15-20 min drive away from Yosemite Valley and the visitors center, so from that perspective 5 stars for convenience. If you are lucky enough to snag lodging with reservation.gov, then even better, but that comes with a heftier price tag. Otherwise most other places will easily be 45-60min out. We booked a loft for 2 of us, which was extremely spacious, in fact the place would have accommodated 4 adults and 2 children. We had a few hiccups at check in, the code to the door wasn't set to the right code, there was unreliable reception, so it took awhile to get a hold of someone to let us in, it actually seems like we may have been the only ones in the building because the power was cut off at first until they turned it back on later. Otherwise, this is going to be more "luxurious" than camping, for example, but certainly not a 5 star place. The small kitchenette fit our needs perfectly and we were glad they had satellite TV.

My family and I have booked through Scenic Wonders for roughly four trips over the past few years, averaging about $3,000 per stay. We also had friends join us on several occasions. The properties themselves were generally decent, and the main selling point has always been the proximity to Yosemite's major sites. However, the cabins are noticeably dated -- many feel like they haven't been updated in 20+ years -- and considering the higher price point and added cleaning fees, the overall condition could be significantly better. The reason I will never book with Scenic Wonders again is the complete lack of customer service and flexibility. Their cancellation policy is extremely rigid, and in my experience, their communication can be unhelpful or even misleading. You are also taking on substantial risk when booking with them: if there are blackouts, storms, fires, or heavy smoke pollution, you will not be compensated or accommodated in any meaningful way. Their trip insurance adds cost and hassle without providing real protection. After several stays, it's clear to me that Scenic Wonders offers premium pricing without premium service. There are far better options in and around Yosemite that provide updated cabins, better management, and more reasonable policies -- often at lower nightly rates and with fewer fees. I highly recommend considering alternatives such as: The Redwoods in Yosemite Private Yosemite West cabins on Airbnb/VRBO (often 15-40% cheaper for the same neighborhood) Foresta Cabins Tenaya Lodge Cottages Autocamp Yosemite (slightly farther from the Valley but far better service) As someone who has stayed with Scenic Wonders multiple times, I strongly suggest looking elsewhere. You'll likely find better value, better service, and far more accommodating policies.

I was surprised to hear that there was fees and taxes that were not included and had to be paid, for each night of the stay. The restaurant, bar and pizza place were in full operation.

It's fine but it could be a lot better. The atmosphere will definitely have you in the mountain hideaway mood. But the night sleep and the general chaos leaves a lot to be desired. Some of the beds in the hostel style rooms are near windows that have always on floodlights above them, with only light filtering shades. Which means if you're staying in a dorm, you'll have to get there early and scope out the outside or else improvise a sleep mask. A real blackout shade would be such an inexpensive and simple fix. For a $50 bed I do at least expect to be able to sleep in a darkened room. The beds are also the loudest hostel beds I've ever encountered, and I've stayed in plenty of $4 a night sh*tholes. Have an itch? Everyone will hear. Want to turn over? No the heck you don't. It's painful how loudly these beds screech. Also torn because while I love that the place is family friendly, just know that you won't be having a restful time away from the hustle and bustle of the park here. The cafe and outside areas are full of screaming children with no real expectation for decorum. The spa at the very least I think would benefit from having explicit adults only hours--really disappointing to pay money for a "spa experience" only to be absolutely invaded after half an hour by groups of children excited to scream, splash, and treat it like a public pool. I do feel that at the very least the staff could set an expectation with parents that their children need to behave like they are in a shared space meant for rest. read more

Heck, they even have a gas pump available so you really don't have to leave the area. The king room cabin was impressive although a bit outdated. I've never sat on a couch that squeaked that much before. The room we were given had the smallest view of the lake, but nonetheless it was still a peaceful time with the balcony.

Parking is plentiful, albeit could be a bit of an awkward angle to park at especially in the 100s cabins.

Yosemite Redbud Lodge

This place sucks. Be warned…read more You probably will be on a long drive to get here. When you arrive you will learn that there is no front desk at the Redbud Lodge. You have to drive two miles down the road to check in at the Cedar Lodge, then drive back the two miles to the Red Bud. That's exactly what you want to do when you get off a long road trip is to have to check in at another hotel to drive back to your hotel. I have never seen this before and I have stayed at hundreds of hotels in my lifetime. Then you get to your room and they don't have the decency of leaving the AC on. They turn it off entirely. So we arrived and the room was literally 90 degrees. The little ac unit by the door is pathetic and never came close to cooling the room down. The ceiling fan did not work either. It's just a dry sauna of a room. The bed is reasonably comfortable. The bathroom is ancient and has not seen a remodel since probably the Reagan Administration. This hotel sucks. Don't stay here. This place should be about $50 a night.

This is a basic road side motel. It was clean enough and spacious. The description said it had a…read morekitchen but no stove so we wasted some food we had brought for an oven. I knew this place did not have an office so we had to be sure to plan ahead and get extra toilet paper from the main office down the road. Inconvenient but not a deal breaker. Parking was an issue one night when apparently every room must have been full? Literally no parking, except ON the highway. We ended up squeezing in a grassy area near the house next door (which likely wasn't really meant for parking) but others not so lucky and had to park on side of the highway. Not good in an area that is pitch black at night, lucky they didn't get hit by someone coming around the corner too fast. Someone else said no WiFi but it was fine for us. Overall it was fine and convenient to the park but not sure I'd stay again. I think I'll try the June Bug lodge next time, their restaurant was great!

Wawona Hotel

FOOD: N/A SERVICE: 4…read moreAMBIANCE: 4 VALUE: 4 Let's make it clear, this hotel is in Yosemite and away from the busy/tourist filled valley. If you are for a peaceful stay away from the crowds, this is where you need to be. The place is full of history and when you drive up to check in, it feels like you've been transported back in time. That's especially true because there are no modern creature comforts, not cell service, no room telephone, no TV, no AC, no in room refrigerator and no room internet (although there is WiFi in the lobby/main building). The basics are very good, spacious room, big comfortable bed, traditional bathroom with good shower pressure and lots of storage. There is a full service restaurant on site serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. We did not try the restaurant during our short stay. As for things close by, there is a gas station and gift shop just next door. You can arrange for horseback riding. There is a pool but it was being serviced during our stay. And you can hike straight out your front door! There are so many hiking trails around the hotel. A very good alternative in the Yosemite National Park. BTW, with a hotel reservation, you can come and go as you please without having to make a park reservation.

Rooms are decent size and clean. Seasonal amenities include a nine-hole golf course, a swimming pool and riding stables. There are lots hiking trails around the hotel. Beautiful views when you sit outside. Food is decent, but nothing amazing. Services was good. Overall it's a 3.5 rounding up to 4.
