From the moment you walk into the lobby it’s very welcoming and pretty. The staff member who helped me was very nice and informative. She checked us into our room quickly and had good suggestions for dinner. We go to Yosemite every year for 45 years now and this is our first time staying in Oakhurst, we’ll definitely be back.

On-site restaurant and breakfast was good. The room needs a bit of an upgrade. TV was not working, carpet needed cleaning. I did mention this on the way out and they just made a note of it. I would stay here again, its a great location and the grounds are beautiful. Kids enjoyed the pool and its a dog friendly hotel!
