David
We stayed at this hotel near Yosemite National Park for a few days and had a great experience. The staff was friendly and helped us upgrade to a bigger room at no extra cost. The room was newly remodeled, extremely clean, and had blackout curtains that worked well. The hotel is conveniently located close to the west gate of the park, which was perfect for avoiding the chaos inside. The on-site Lucky Buck Cafe was a great bonus after a long day of exploring.
Totally recommend this hotel.

Charlotte
Convenient location close to the entrance of Yosemite National Park and a bakery/restaurant called Tangled Heart. Drive-up to your front door rooms, which can be convenient for easy access to your car. The restaurant served good food for both breakfast and dinner.
Some noise issues with noisy neighbors and cars running, which made it necessary to keep the windows closed. The air conditioner in the room did not work and no action was taken when reported.

The room at this hotel was newly remodeled and exceptionally clean. The blackout curtains were effective in blocking out any light. The staff was very accommodating and allowed me to check in early. The hotel had a great outdoor atmosphere with clean air and surrounded by trees. The pool area was modern and well-equipped. The location was perfect for exploring the nearby national park.
Nothing to mention.

I got great value for my money at Buck Meadows Lodge. The room was clean, upskill, and had all the amenities I needed. The location was awesome, just a 1 hour drive to Yosemite Valley. The staff treated me with great friendliness and the on-site restaurant served delicious food.

We got incredible value for our money at Buck Meadows Lodge. The room was spacious, clean, and beautifully appointed, with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect, surrounded by nature and just a short drive from Yosemite National Park. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate us, especially during a difficult situation caused by a nearby forest fire. They provided helpful advice and even offered to drive us when our car broke down. The pool area was modern and well-equipped, and we enjoyed the friendly atmosphere of the town.
The only thing that could have made the breakfast selection better was more variety in the options offered.
