Best Western Plus Yosemite Way Station Motel

Best Western Plus Yosemite Way Station Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Good breakfast everyday and helpful staff with plenty of parking. About 1hr to Yosemite gate."

Mariposa Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"While the property is older, the room (134) was in remarkably good condition. It was clean, all amenities worked well. A/C was a newer unit and was surprisingly quiet. The bathroom and sink area appear to be newly renovated. We loved that they provided earplugs, but we didn’t need them at all. It was a quiet stay for us. The only recommendation we have - put a non-slip mat under the microwave. It slides around on top of the fridge when you open or close the door. We were very pleased with the room and staff."

Yosemite Bug Rustic Mountain Resort

Yosemite Bug Rustic Mountain Resort

10/10 Excellent

"It felt like I was at camp, but with a lot more luxury--adult camp! Our cabin was one of the more uniquely decorated rooms we've stayed in--it was kind of steampunk, with whimsical art--I think the target audience might have been younger folks, but we loved it. The room had everything we needed (AC!), and the property has a laundry room which came in handy on our long trip. The best part for us was the dining hall, they had an eclectic menu with options for meaters (steak, ribs!) and veggies/vegans, breakfasts were tasty, and they had to go bfast and lunches for people looking to get out to Yosemite fast. Staff from check-in to food were all friendly and helpful. The grounds had a community kitchen, foosball, table tennis, board games, and a spa. A fun and well equipped little resort--we will definitely stay again if in the area."

River Rock Inn

River Rock Inn

8/10 Good

"River Rock Inn was a nice, quaint stay for my cousins and I! We only stayed one night but it sufficed for what we needed. The room was relatively clean, the beds were decently comfortable, the only thing is the AC was sooo cold and a bit tricky to figure out how to use at first. Also, the deadbolt on our door was messed up and only the bottom lock was able to lock. Sticks Cafe that is right next to the inn was pretty cool, the drinks were yummy and the food was delicious as well as beautifully presented! If you tell them you’re staying at River Rock they will give you a 20% discount! They also have an art box where there are small prints of art made by local artists of Yosemite! The owner of River Rock was very kind and friendly and let us know that if we needed anything, she would help us. Overall we had a pleasant stay and enjoyed our time at River Rock :)"
