Top Groveland Hotel Reviews

Yosemite View Lodge

8/10 Good

"Staff are friendly and room are cozy and neat."

Firefall Ranch Yosemite

10/10 Excellent

"This lodge is one of the best around Yosemite area. We loved the 2-bedroom cabin we stayed in which is nested in a wooded meadow away from the main reception building. Very beautiful surroundings and very quiet - a truly wonderful escape. We were here only for one night and didn't have the opportunity to enjoy all the great amenities - heated pool, jacuzzi, horseback riding, etc. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The indoor/outdoor fireplace in the main bedroom is amazing! In fact, the place was so comfortable that we spent virtually the entire stay in the cabin! We were able to try the restaurant on-site for dinner. That was, perhaps the only disappointing thing about the lodge - we were surprised by the restaurant menu with minimal options for food and they weren't that appetizing. Instead, we ordered food on the tavern menu which was okay. We were expecting a larger selection and tastier fare given the lodge's luxury caliper. The staff were super helpful, warm and friendly. I do recommend reviewing the invoice when checking out to ensure no additional charges end up on the bill! :(We were initially overcharged for an early check in fee, and dog fee) . That said, it was overall a great stay!"

Riverfront House 5 miles to Yosemite! THE closest to the Hwy 120 gate. 3 bdrm AC

10/10 Excellent

"We love staying at this place! We spent most of our time visiting our son, who works at Yosemite National Park, so we didn't do a whole lot at the place itself except sleep. But we felt right at home. All the stuff we needed to cook was there, we all had plenty of space to sleep, and of course the beautiful creek out back was a lovely touch as well. The owner was EXTREMELY proactive in communicating with us, even notifying us a day ahead of time about a potential power outage that, thankfully, did not come to pass. The owner had told us that this place was/is about 10 minutes from the entrance to Yosemite National Park, with a 20- to 25-minute drive to get to Yosemite Village after that. All of this information proved to be dead-on accurate. We would gladly stay here again. It's a big, peaceful, quiet house with a good vibe and everything you need to eat well, sleep well, shower well, and even use the Internet well (as the WiFi was, to our happy surprise, good). Thanks for having us!"
