We Loved Loved Loved this place. The concept, the coziness of the place, the staff, the cleanliness, the service, EVERYTHING. The breakfast was delicious. From 6-8pm they offered free wine with charcuterie. I would say it is ideal for couples that love peaceful places with great views.

Wonderful Hospitality

Excellent hospitality in a peaceful setting. I saw wild bunnies while drinking my coffee on the patio. The outside of the inn and the dining area are very cute. Unfortunately, our room had a strong musty smell. This is likely due to the carpeting surrounding the jetted bathtub. The tub and tiles are dated and in need of update.

Lovely

We enjoyed our 1 night stay. They had a lovely happy hour with complimentary wine and brushetta. We got cookies and a nice thank you note on our room when we arrived. The room and property is renovated and looks nice and new. The breakfast was really good. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Only complaint is the bath towels were very rough and the bed was stiff. But we would stay here again if in town.

The picture of the room with our reservation link isn’t the room we received, but was still comfortable. The broken chair in the room should be replaced at this price point and there wasn’t a table in the room, so the only place to sit and read was on the bed. At this price point and for the size of the room, there should be a comfortable place place to sit and read with good lighting. Very friendly staff.

Disappointed to have to give a negative review, but would really like to avoid other guests booking and not getting what they paid for. Avoid room 2 and I would advise to check first if booked in another room. Paid a premium for king room with tub, could not fill it as the water temperature was so weak and water only mildly warm. So disappointed after 5 mile hike had wanted a bath. Additionally lights above the bed broken, my husband managed to fix one. Light hanging off it’s fixing in shower. Shower handle so loose could not turn off without getting sprayed with cold water. Carpet threadbare and horribly dirty. I informed reception/Latino lady / she just tried to brush me off until I showed her the photos. Such a shame as breakfast room was lovely, nice glass of wine complimentary in the evening. C’mon though, don’t sell luxury and a tub if that’s no longer on offer.

We booked a room to celebrate our anniversary. We were greeted by a very friendly lady who checked us in and told us that charging our EV was free to their guests. She then explained our three breakfast options of an omelette, eggs cooked to order or biscuits and gravy, each with sides of potatoes and sausages. Milk or orange juice were other choices. The room (#3) was large with a king sized bed and a large jacuzzi tub in the room. The bathroom was also larger than average with a walk in shower that had 2 shower heads. The room was air conditioned and had a coffee maker and a refrigerator. Unfortunately, we arrived late after spending a long day at Yosemite National Park, so we were not able to fully enjoy everything this property had to offer.

Cosy, comfortable and spacious B&B half an hour's drive from Yosemite southern gate - and 90 minutes from Yosemite Village, a much cheaper option than some park accomodation if not camping. Also minutes from Lake Bass and gourmet Elderberry House restaurant. Staff super knowledgeable and helpful with planning Yosemite visits.

Great Location! Great Staff! Great Stay!

We had a wonderful three days at the Hounds Tooth Inn. The facility had a great comfortable, low-key vibe. Tammy and Melinda were friendly and very helpful. And in addition to a great room, the breakfast was tasty, the evening wine tasting was enjoyable, and the location was very close to not only Yosemite, but Bass Lake and the cool Yosemite Jazz Train.
