The rental cabin itself was nice and clean, everything working as it should, but a bit dusty on a lot of the top portions of the room, the check-in process was hectic, had walked into the office and had dogs barking, and was in the middle of a reception, was told to go to the bar area where the wedding reception was held in order to check in, but not who to talk to at all and was very confusing and offputting. Checkout was a lot smoother and straightforward

Charming cabin, pleasing property, free wine tasting. Restaurant and winery are great, owner has homeade bread for sale, and homeade cookies in our room when we checked in. Very close to Yosemite! Restaurant is popular with locals, always a good sign.

Queens Inn by the river was a gem. The room space was very large and accommodating. The snacks and coffee provided were amazing. The town was beautiful with lots of shops and places to explore. We wished we had stayed while the restaurant and winery were open, but perhaps next time. We would definitely visit again, Queens Inn by the river was awesome!

Quaint Inn near the southern entrance to Yosemite. If your looking for simple, CLEAN, safe and near Yosemite this is the place. Staff is friendly and helpful. The snacks provided were a nice surprise. Rooms have all the basics- Bed, Mini Fridge, Microwave and a nice deck with a patio table and chairs to enjoy your morning coffee. Property has a cute wine bar and restaurant on site. We’ll definitely stay here again.
