8/10 Good
"It’s the perfect location for exploring Yosemite. The rooms are a little dated but have everything you need. Breakfast is outrageously overpriced so make sure you plan ahead!"

"Can’t beat the convenience of the location. The room wasn’t super clean, there was a dirty old sock under one of the beds and the floor in the tent was very dirty. The bathrooms are also very small and got hot and humid quickly if more than one person was showering. Overall would still recommend because of the location."

"We had a excellent experience, the only complaint we have is the mattress on our cabin was way gone, we felt like we slept in a water bed. Other than that it was a pretty cool experience. 15 minute drive to Yosemite"

"A cozy, family‑friendly campi g experience with clean facilities, great food, and plenty of fun for the kids. The absolute highlight was the heated beds, which made the whole stay feel extra comfortable and memorable. If you want it even shorter, choose: shorter summary or punchy tagline."
