El Portal Market is in the heart of El Portal, so why not stop by during your stay. Why not take a stroll along the riverfront and watch the sunset while you're here? If you'd also like to explore some of the parks in El Portal, Yosemite Arch Rock Gate Entrance is nearby.
At the western gateway to Yosemite, this tiny mountain community offers front-row access to natural wonders without the park's crowds. The rushing Merced River provides a soundtrack for morning coffee at El Portal Market before heading into the park. Grab hiking advice from locals who casually mention Half Dome as if discussing a neighborhood stroll. Summer evenings find residents cooling off in swimming holes that tourists rarely discover. The lack of resort amenities is precisely the point - this is where park employees and climbers gather to trade stories over beers. For the best experience, book a riverside cabin and fall asleep to the sound of water tumbling over ancient granite.
Excellent place to stay . Don’t listen to the bad reviews it is obvious they thought they would be staying at a 5 star hotel . This is glamping and we loved it . We stayed at one of the yurts(tents) and it was awesome , we had a ceiling and floor fan , refrigerator and electricity, queen size bed , it was cozy and fun . We swam in the Merced river which is a3 minute walk across street . Take some flip flops for the communal showers which are shared but the hot water is amazing , this place is...
Check in and out process was super easy, staff at Cedar Lodge were very friendly. The Wi-Fi is actually superb which was a great surprise (it’s also free). Location is right on main road but secluded enough and a short 20 min from park entrance. Inside is very clean and well kept with plenty of cooking supplies, including a stove top and toaster among other things. Would definitely recommend.
What more can be said about this outstanding short-term rental that hasn’t already been mentioned in its many five-star reviews? We stayed in the loft at Papillon Cellars for four nights, and it exceeded our expectations.
The loft was spacious, beautifully appointed, and exceptionally clean. The bedding and pillows were top-notch, making it easy to get a great night’s sleep after long days of hiking in Yosemite. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed to prepare a wonderful...
Coming from the East Bay Area, I found the level of service, friendliness, and willingness to help extraordinarily HIGH! Much higher that you can hope for! Awesome CS level!
Returned after 9pm from dinner in Mariposa, we were unable to find parking. Ran into a staff member who recognized our plight. She immediately volunteered her space close to the Clubhouse! Said she was leaving soon anyway.
Always greeting with smiles and a friendly tone of voice.
Amazingly clean, rating 10/10 by my...
Beautiful property opened in May 2024, about 20 min. from the entrance to the Yosemite park. We booked a 2 bedroom cottage (king queen bed). The cottages are free standing, each with a separate entrance. The parking is just outside the cottage (no valet). The cottage was modern, with an high ceiling, and a patio. It reminded me a bit of Healdsbourg Montage. The main bedroom had a double sided fire place which can be enjoyed from the main bedroom and from the outside patio. There is no TV in the...
My family of 3 stayed in 1 of the cottages for a couple nights in Feb. Fantastic location for easy access to the southern entrance of Yosemite. Property itself is very family friendly because of various activities. Our cottage was clean and well stocked. Resort grounds are well maintained. I would stay here again and highly recommend this resort.
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.
Miner Inn in Mariposa was wonderful hotel in a small town. Everything is better than our expectation. We arrive after 9:30 pm. We called beforehand to let them know we will be late. They assured us there would be people at front desk to check us in. They did have people checked us in there, late in the evening. The room is nice and clean. The breakfast is hot and very surprise to us. We love this place, and would come back int he future.
