Evergreen Lodge Yosemite

8/10 Good
"This place is very family friendly. (The staff riding around in golf carts need to watch their language when speaking among themselves!). Plenty to do on site… playground, pool, rec room, fire pits, nightly s’mores. Unfortunately, it was difficult for adults to use the spa as parents were using it teach their little ones to swim. It’s a long ride off the main road (6.5 miles), but very quiet. Cabins have the basics, but are quite dark."

10/10 Excellent
"Everything. The welcoming treatment from the staff, to our own personal cabin which was super clean! Nice pool, the camp fires at night and free smores to make. The restaurants had great food. The property has a gorgeous Creek behind it with a walking trail. Plus it’s only a 7 minute drive to Yosemite Entrance! Plus pet friendly. We loved it and I can’t say enough of what a great stay it was. Would rate it a 12 if I could. I will be back for sure. And I Highly recommend!"
