Sierra Meadows
4.7/5107 Reviews
We spent 4 nights here in Early Nov. and we had such a great experience! Our large 1 bdrm cabin was spacious and clean and had room to stretch out on a nice sofa with a coffee table. The kitchen is stocked with all the basics and there is even a really great sounding Bluetooth speaker. We loved the little desk area for plotting our travels in Yosemite. The welcome card has great little QR codes with links to sightseeing, local restaurants, and even a list of all the items you can find in their camp store. There were some vintage Saturday Evening Post magazines from the 60’s that were fun to flip through while sitting on our deck and enjoying a beverage from the adorable little camp store on the property. The little store has such a great curated selection of snacks and beverages and sundries and lots of little items that you might have forgotten to pack! We had beautiful weather (70’s day/40’s night) and we took advantage of the lovely hiking trails on the property and we used the complimentary bikes on the paved pathways that wind around the property beyond the clubhouse. They have several really interesting large sculptures and art pieces scattered around the grounds along the pathways to keep things interesting too! We saw so much wildlife on our excursions (even a cute little bobcat) and at night there was an amazing concert at the intimate little clubhouse music venue! The event was even catered with delicious dinner options and there is a bar with super friendly tenders keeping the party going during and after the show. Everything is really well thought out and organized and the staff are super friendly and helpful. We can’t wait to go back!
Holiday Inn Express & Suites Chowchilla - Yosemite PK Area

A good value for money hotel. I originally booked for one day, and on the second day, I continued to visit Yosemite’s park for another day. The overall environment nearby is good.
Homestead Cottages

There were three of us staying in the room; Two adults and a ten-year old child. When we checked in the woman at the office was quick to tell us she had to put towels in the room. We waited then it took 2 or 3 trips back to the office to finally get 3 towels. Our room had only half a roll of toilet paper. I went to the office and asked for more and she gave more when she gave me the towels. There is no cell phone service and no phones in the room. To talk to the front desk requires walking or driving to the office. The TV didn’t work. We went to get her and she said she’d fix it while we were out to dinner. That never happened. “No signal” was all that shown on the screen. Pushing on all the buttons on the remote control didn’t help. When it came time for showers, we discovered we had no wash cloths. Because the office was closed and we couldn’t find the woman we used the kitchen towel for a wash cloth. The office driveway was gated and a car had parked blocking entrance the rest of the day. At check-in the woman was quick to tell us she was proud she had put clean sheets on the fold-out sofa bed. When the time came for bed, we found one pillow in the closet but no pillow case. Oh well. We had to use one of our t-shirts as a pillow case. On a shelf in the bedroom nightstand was a large ring of master keys for all buildings (?). The A/C doesn’t cool the cottage. It ran all afternoon and the temperature got down to 85 degrees which is better than 95 degrees outdoors in mid-June. We carry our own thermometer. When the sun went down the room lowered to 83 degrees. We opened all the windows and the refrigerator and freezer doors to cool it down to 81 degrees where it stayed all night. The cabin had a coffee pot and coffee but no cream, and no one in the office to ask. To get cream for the coffee in the morning was a 30 minute round-trip drive to the nearest Valero gas station and market. No decaf coffee either, so another drive to Oakhurst. Their Facebook and Yelp pages advertise as “Bed and Breakfast”. That’s not true. Bring your own breakfast or go to a restaurant. We have stayed here in years past several times and enjoyed it, but these incompetencies are probably the result of new ownership and new management. For $ 280 a night you’d expect more.

Stayed here with family because my mom said she use to enjoy coming here 15-20 years ago. I wasn't really sure, but relented. Our trip was really to go to Yosemite, so it was actually quite a drive (an hour) from the hotel). The hotel itself have very strict protocols when it comes to COVID. They take your temperature before you come in, as well as have to show your ID before you enter the elevator taking you to your room. The good? 1) The hotel room itself was comfortable with the needed amenities. It was clean, and the AC worked well. 2) Wifi was good 3) Nice views. The bad? 1) the check-in process. It really took forever. Not sure of the check-in person was inexperienced or what, but waiting for 30 minutes was not cool at all. 2) the security at the elevator checking your IDs. The security was very rude to a point that when I said hi or thank you, she didn't even acknowledge. I think she was just in a bad mood. She asked for my ID, and as I was fumbling with my luggages, she appeared impatient. When I showed her my ID, she said, ”put it down so I can see it”. I'm like whoa, this better be not a hotel staff. The other security guards were good. But I will not forget this particular one. 3) The smoke filled ******. And yes, you can't escape it, but it was so nauseating that I decided not to gamble.and head back to my room - hoping and praying it's not the rude security guard. 4) the restaurant. The Mexican place I wanted to eat at was not only closed, but with my elderly/handicapped mom walking from the hotel to the restaurant, it was a challenge. Not seeing any signs, we wasted our time walking there. It was closed. The Asian Noodle place next to it was good, but the wait was over an hour. The ugly? I would not come back to this place just because of that security guard. Gosh, she was really in a bad mood. That's the ugliest thing ever.
Yosemite Southgate Hotel & Suites
4.7/586 Reviews
The room is nice, cozy & clean plus the fact that it is affordable. We loved the sauna. Front desk staff & the one assigned in breakfast are friendly too. They are very accommodating. The only comment I have in the room is the round chair in front of the dresser, it’s not sturdy enough to sit on it.
Narrow Gauge Inn

If you like hearing every word your unknown neighbors say at midnight this is the place for you. 1st night room next store had a baby, the baby cried off and on all night (babies cry, not complaining about that) but it sounded like the baby was in our room. We could hear every word the parents were saying to the baby to try and get him to sleep. We were unable to sleep that night and basically ruined our day in Yosemite. 2nd night was different guest but again they might as well be in our room. I could hear snoring all night as well as their entire conversation. When their iPhone alarm went off I literally reached for my phone to shut it off. The room was clean enough but so old and worn. We thought we coming to a cool funky small hotel but it’s just plain old. They told us the hot water comes slowly and to let the sink run for a few minutes lol maybe after 15 minutes you may or may not get more than Luke warm. The shower head was a stream and should have been replaced 10 years ago. Linens seemed clean enough but looked frayed and old. This place is not worth the charge - please don’t respond with your standard response about many guest enjoying the value. Unless you like paying a lot of money to be awake all night go elsewhere. Had I known the area better I would have just stayed in Oakhurst at a quiet clean hotel with actual running hot water only 15 minutes more from the park entrance.
