Beautiful hotel in a scenic setting
Amazing stay at Rush Creek, everything met and exceeded our expectations at this hotel. Very comfortable and quiet rooms, stunning facilities with heated pools, hot tubs and recreation areas available. We did some hiking in Yosemite and it was only a few minutes drive into the park in the morning and 40min drive to Yosemite village. We would highly recommend with no downsides found at all.

Yosemite Gem
Loved this resort!! Design and function all well planned. Rooms were spacious and comfortable with plenty of storage. Had a fridge, safe and microwave in room. No TV but great wi-fi and Alexa provided. Great veranda overlooking the heated pool, two hot tubs (which we loved) and property. Did not utilize the spa services but I’m sure those are top notch as well. Fantastic restaurant and bar serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Beautiful buildings and property. Two minutes to Yosemite 120 entrance and about 30 minutes into Yosemite Valley. Great getaway for couples or families with lots of activities (paid and free), including a huge playroom next to the pool area. Board games, billiards, fuse ball, shuffleboard and a climbing feature. Will definitely come again.

Amazing place but very famillial so if you are looking for a more quiet place to go as a couple or solo this might not be the best choice. Lots of activities (although all expansive for what it is -id recommend just driving and doing it by yourself as the lodge is close to yosemite park), great food choices, a beautiful spa and a big heated pool! There is a grocery store, places to do your laundry and its handicap friendly too!
