Groveland
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (121 reviews)
"We stayed at this Groveland cabin for three nights while visiting Yosemite, and it exceeded our expectations. The rooms were spotless and surprisingly spacious, giving our family plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was fully stocked, from cookware to condiments, which made meal prep effortless. A highlight for the kids was the variety of board games, perfect for winding down in the evenings. The check‑in process was seamless, and the host Debi and Vineet were responsive and helpful from...

Best Western Plus Sonora Oaks Hotel & Conference Center

8/10 Good
"Very nice gal working check in. Breakfast was good, quiet, safe area. Only thing I noticed was some damage to the vinyl on the couch — holes that made it look even older than it probably was. Shower curtain too short for the tall ADA shower. Makes the floor wet which is dangerous for someone who uses it who is disabled. Overall great place to spend the night near Yosemite without Yosemite prices."
