6/10 Good

Room was not clean thoroughly, towels were also still dirty, refrigerator was not working and not enough pillows.
Angel, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice property for the price. Close to Yosemite National Park.
Samuel, 2-night trip

clean, convenient place to visit Yosemite park
Fedor, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Quaint spot outside of Yosemite

Great spot. Big room with mini fridge and freezer. Restaurant next door was very vegetarian friendly and yummy, but I think the lodge wifi clashed with restaurant because I couldn't really use it. I would also recommend they tailor their curtains because the AC mostly cooled down their curtain and not the room lol.

10/10 Exceptional

Served my purpose as gateway to Yosemite!
Gabriel, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Moderately satisfied

The room was clean and pleasant. The only thing I didn't like was the front desk staff. Both the check-in and check-out staff weren't friendly or approachable.
Ana, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice throwback type drive up motel. Clean, plenty of towels, and had the basics like a LaQuinta or Fairfield Estates. (Except no breakfast provided. )But...just a short walk to the restaurant. After being in Yosemite, it was nice to have this lodging about an hour out from the Park.
William, 1-night trip

Clean and quiet just what I needed

Great place to stay on our visit to Yosemite! About 50 minute drive to the valley and great dining option right next door!
Cara, 1-night trip

Great Stay with Food.

Great location, very clean and comfortable rooms. Enjoyed the stay!! Attached to a restaurant really helped to get good food at a remote location.
NAZMUL, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is our favorite spot to stay outside of Yosemite Park. We stay in one of the 2 cabins. Seasonally the restaurant attached to the hotel has good food and friendly service. There are chargers for ev cars on the property provided by Electrify America.

8/10 Very good

Dated Lodge in a remote area. Dark roads and in one area very dangerous. Overall very scenic and quiet. Diner on site with great food
Giuseppe, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

We recently stayed at Buck Meadows Lodge from Thursday, July 31st to Friday, August 1st. I have never said this to a hotel in a lifetime of hotel stays. We checked in around 9:00 p.m. after dinner. We were exhausted from a day of hiking and all we wanted was to shower and go to bed. My wife went first and saw that the bathtub had not been cleaned. It was actually dirty, grimy and had hair. She had to use a soapy washcloth to wipe the bathtub clean. As I said, I have never seen this in my lifetime, arriving at a hotel with a dirty bathtub. It is disgusting and unacceptable.
William, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Well kept property. The very clean room had some nice side tables with USB charging outlets.
Margarita, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property was great! Parking is right by lodging so easy to traverse with my mom who has a hard time walking every now and then. Pool and hot tub were a plus. Spacious room to relax after a long day. Staff was sweet and accommodating. 10/10!
Ashley, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had trouble getting ahold of the front desk to say that I would be a late check in but other than that everything was great and the host was super friendly!

Very nice for Yosemite weekend visit outside park

Very nice, no-frills motel. Clean, comfortable & quiet. Not too far from the Yosemite gate. Electric chargers in the back, but if you have a Tesla, you will need an adapter.
Andrea, 2-night trip

The room is very large.
Peng, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room and bathroom were updated and nice. I appreciated the nice shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion. There were charging outlets for cell phones, USB, etc. I liked that there was a Keurig coffee maker. Everything was nice quality.
