Tenaya Lodge

We stayed here because of its proximity to Yosemite. It was nice being 5-7 mins from the entrance to the park. We stayed in a cottage next to the pizzeria. Had more than a few spiders in our cottage which sort of freaked out the kids but I dispatched of them all as discreetly as possible and never saw any more. The room itself was not anything to write home about, but I can appreciate a nice bed and nice pillows. Ours had a high ceiling which I liked. There was a gas fireplace which would provide plenty of heat if we had needed any. Some of the property was under construction so we did not have access to all the amenities but the pool area was very nice with a full bar next to it. The restaurant was good, and they had a game room (not an arcade) that is more than sufficient to entertain your kids for a at least 15 mins. They have a lot to do there, like archery lessons, but we simply didn’t have the time. If you are planning a vacation to Yosemite but don’t exactly want to stay in the park itself, this is a terrific resort-feel within shouting distance of the Fish Camp entrance. 

Most important was they where dog friendly! The staff so accommodating and nice. Loved the shuttle from the cottages to the lodge. Amenities galore! Easy access to the Yosemite a huge plus. Will love to come back in spring and summer. Thanks for a great experience! The Christmas decorations where beautiful!

Had a great time here at Tenaya! It was our first time here and everything was great and we will definitely come back again :)

Very much enjoyed our stay at the lodge. The facilities were very nice, clean, and the location was very close to Yosemite South Gate (~2 miles). The services was very good. The restaurant/food service was good. The resort offered an indoor and out door pools, and lots of activities on site for families/children. would definitely recommend considering this lodge if you are planning a visit to Yosemite.
