Disliked: Staff & service
Staff rushed through the check in process, the “any questions” at the end could not have been more “do not ask me anything”. Food was bang average at best but premium prices, we only ate in the bar area and were very underwhelmed on both occasions. Bri the lady behind the bar was excellent and one night seemed to be manning it on her own which for the amount of people in there didn’t seem fair. View from the room was up a small meadow, not a lake or any scenery - this is compared to similar priced accommodation in both Monterey and Lake Tahoe. Staff in the shop were very pleasent - the front desk should take lessons from these guys.

Disliked: Cleanliness
We really like that the resort and all the extra amenities like the pool, hot tub, fire pits etc were nice, all the staff were friendly but the lack of cleanliness really put a damper on the overall experience. Our stay was M-F and upon arrival, I stepped on a tiny rock on the carpet and kicked it off to the patio door where it remained for days. There was hair on the shower drain that my husband had it removed by himself. We signed up for daily cleaning, Tues and Weds while out at Yosemite, our cabin was “cleaned” by the time we returned but I noticed the tiny rock was still there and more hair in the bathroom was NOT picked up so I started to question whether they actually cleaned at all. Thursday upon returning around 3pm, our cabin was still not cleaned. We waited for 2 more hours and still nobody came to clean. I called to inquire. First I was told we were not on the list of cabins requested to be cleaned, that’s false bc we signed up for daily cleaning and they’ve been coming to “clean”, then they said someone will come to give us new towels but they won’t clean and I have to ask them myself if I want my cabin cleaned. When the girl came to drop off the towels is when I learned that our cabin was NEVER cleaned. Just swap clean towels, remove garbage and they remake the bed, called SOS (stay over service)! Despite paying almost a thousand dollar a night, you do NOT get clean sheets, pillowcases, vacuumed carpet nor a clean bathroom! Do better! Very disappointing!!!

Estrutura incrível perto do parque Yosemite

Ficamos em um chalé lindamente decorado, com camas confortáveis em meio à natureza. O hotel tem um restaurante ótimo, onde tomamos café da manhã e jantamos com muita qualidade. Tem também uma lojinha com comidas, bebidas e souvenirs. Fica bem próximo (20min de carro) da entrada do parque Yosemite, o que é ótimo para quem quer visitar. Tem muitas coisas para fazer dentro da propriedade. Adoramos fazer s'mores na lareira!
