Hotels near Simple to Superb Local Boutique, Oakhurst

I really enjoyed my stay here, the staff was welcoming, accommodating, helpful, and super friendly. We loved staying in the cabin which made it a more unique and outdoor experience, with all the comforts you would need. The restaurant on site is absolutely superb and delicious, and the wine bar, is very cozy and cute, which is just above the river. It was a truly unique and lovely stay and we would love to come back one day.

DO NOT STAY HERE! This place is beyond disgusting, unsafe, and unprofessional. I booked a room with 2 queen beds for one night for 3 adults. The room we were given had one bed and a mattress for us to sleep on. The actual bed didn't have any blankets, only a sheet and some pillows. The mattress didn't even have that, it was just a stained fitted sheet that looked like it hadn't been washed. We searched the entire room for blankets or even a single pillow/top sheet for the mattress but there was nothing in the room. I went to the front desk and asked the manager if we could have some pillows and blankets since our room had none. She told us we didn't ”need any” since it was ”warm enough” at night. We told her we wanted bedding even if it was ”warm enough” (＜55ºF that night) and she then said the owner didn't let them wash blankets in the summer and that all the pillows and sheets were ”lost” at other properties. I kept insisting and finally she gave me 2 thin white sheets that both had brown stains all over them, telling me to use one as a pillow. I walked away in shock not believing that a hotel I payed $150 to stay one night at refused to give me bedding. To keep the rest short, Once we realized how bad the situation was, we tried to find a room anywhere else in town but there was nothing available within such short notice. It was already late and we had just driven 5 hours from home so we decided to leave very early the next morning to get out of there as soon as possible. Besides the strange and upsetting interaction with the front desk, we also found that the shower had no shower head, the toilet paper roll holder was ripped off the wall and a used roll was sitting on the counter instead, the bathroom sink was covered in dried toothpaste and green mold, the pot for a large decorative plant was filled with trash, the only ”lock” on the door was a key code (that was known by the staff) and a broken latch bolt that didn't even stay on the door, and finally, a DEAD LIZARD in the cabinet next to the bed! It almost felt like a sick joke or a scam. I am horrified that this is how we were treated.

It takes 40 minutes to drive from the gorge and a few minutes drive from the town. However, I like the hotel's environment and retro decoration style. Unfortunately, I didn't catch up with the beautiful snow scene when I stayed. The room size is small and the facilities are simple, but the bathroom is more special and has a double vanity. Breakfast can basically be ignored~

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!

You can navigate to this beautiful resort with google maps or offline trips. The car is solitary and galloping. It comes to the mountains and lakes. After a second of isolation, the second is suddenly open. The cabins and kitchens are all available. A very good community, there is a petrol station supermarket restaurant post office, the supermarket can basically find everything that is needed, how to cure my Chinese stomach, live in a three-day cabin, and have a sense of isolation and convenience. Two seemingly contradictory sides, the focus is still picturesque, the bass lake is breathtaking, there are various water activities, even if you do not participate in these activities, it is very pleasant and pleasant to swim in the lake. The cabin is The cleaners were cleaned once in four days, but all kinds of supplies, such as paper towels and towels, were prepared in advance, which was very good, and the feeling of home on the road. There is a barbecue on the balcony of the room. Many people can open a party. The little squirrels in the woods will come to the balcony to hang out, and the children will like it. Not far from Yosemite, no use for an hour, more than 6 o'clock in the morning, more than 4 o'clock in the afternoon, very convenient! If there is a defect, the sofa of the cabin is a bit old. It seems that it will be a lot more comfortable to change. In addition, the reception staff lacks service awareness. Although the customer is a bit too much for God, but the uncle seems to be really appetizing, I am If you pay for it, you have to come up with the corresponding service. It’s not white to live in your house, right?

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.

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.

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.

The hotel is located at the south gate of Highway 41 National Park, about an hour's drive from the core scenic area Valley View. However, there are ancient tree scenic spots around the hotel, where you can take a light hike. The ancient trees are very impressive. The hotel is a very traditional American resort hotel. The hotel swimming pool is very beautiful. You can sit at the pool bar and read a book in the afternoon. The hotel service is very good and parking is convenient. The room is also large and the bedding is average.
