    No food at the pool bar as advertised on Sunday or for dinner Monday if you didn’t want the full bbq. Price of food and drink was over the top. An all inclusive or reasonable food/drink package would be nice, or some freebies like continental breakfast and pool snacks (pizza bar) with option to buy/spend more if you want a more high end experience More chaise lounge seating? Or a time limit? Seemed impossible to get one.

    Pool, hot tubs-extra large, towels at the pool, pool bar, activities for kids, s’mores, villa for families with two twins Pool BBQ General store Location Use of pool with changing rooms after check out

    Villa was much bigger than expected and spacious for 5 adults. Wider facilities at the lodge were great and the staff were super friendly and helpful. Beautiful location and 5 mins drive to the Yosemite entrance and 45mins to the valley. Could not have asked for a nicer place to base ourselves for Yosemite for the price.

    The sofa bed in the room was very uncomfortable and was ok as only there 3 nights but wouldnt have been great for longer.

    Food was excellent, staff super helpful, facilities were spot on and location perfect for the park. Couldn’t fault it!

    Nothing!

    Everything! It can’t get any better than Rush Creek Lodge. The facilities are superb. The games room is awesome, the decor, pool area, informed staff and recreation team, shop, pool side BBQ’s and there’s a help yourself laundry area with washing machines and dryers. Great location. So close to the west gate entry into Yosemite, but the hotel is surrounded by beauty. Fantastic for families.

    We loved the whole property... Great layout from the rooms to the facilities! The food had gluten free option which was a must and items were tasty. The spa visit at the end of the trip was perfect after many long hikes! Lovely and would highly recommend. The proximity to the park entrance was perfect.

    The cost of the booking itself was very expensive, however if you compare it to other hotels in the area that are inside the park, it’s cheaper than those and much nicer. Food and drink was quite pricey and items in the shop were fairly pricey too. My only disappointment was that I had hoped to use the spa facilities the day before our wedding, but I didn’t realise this was an extra cost, I had assumed as a guest the use of the facility would be included in the stay. (Obviously I understand treatments would be charged, but I had hoped to at least go into the spa)

    We stayed here recently for our wedding in Yosemite, we were travelling with our three year old son so wanted a family friendly stay and weren’t disappointed. The play areas, heated pool and daily activities entertained him for hours. The staff were all extremely helpful and friendly. Especially Johnny on the front desk. The location is amazing. So close to Yosemite gates, if you leave early enough in the morning to beat the crowds like we did, it took no time at all. Our room was lovely and clean, and really big! We had a room with a balcony on the back of the building, so we had a beautiful view of the forest. They also let me use the bridal suite to get ready in the morning of our wedding, which was really helpful. The evening smores were also great. We’re British and also really appreciated an actual kettle in the room to make tea. There was also a fridge and coffee machine. And shared microwave downstairs in the laundry room. Honestly I was so upset to leave and move onto our next hotel for our honeymoon, and wish we could have afforded to stay for longer.

    The barn door for the bathroom was very loud and hard to move. We left it a crack open at night so as not to wake everyone.

    The room was comfortable, clean and up to date. Loved the pool and adult hot tub. Ate at the restaurant for breakfast one day and it was a very nice buffet. Had dinner at the restaurant as well several times. Good food, lively atmosphere in the bar area.
