Convenient for exploring the Cedar Grove area of park, beautiful on the river. Convenient having restaurant-good food! Was also nice having the market there with frozen food & microwave in the market to use. Air conditioning wonderful in room. Very basic room but perfect for exploring this beautiful area of park. Mist Falls trail at Roads End was awesome!

My husband and I were out “glamping”. The accommodations were really nice for our needs. Comfy and clean. The lounge chairs near the river were relaxing and charming.

Food offerings were poor: limited (and ever-shrinking) options and mostly poor quality. My wife eats vegan and had almost no options at all. Even the choices for alcohol were few and low quality.

I really loved my stay at this lodge. The rooms were nice enough but not fancy but the location was great. We did see a bear from the lodge which the rangers drove off. It had a great view next to the river.

It was as a great place for an overnight. Lovely places to relax and enjoy the river without camping. It’s an isolated location, be flexible.

We arrived on Oct. 6th so the shutdown was just starting and we were assured that it had no effect on the operations of the lodge. It was great being next to the river and the views were beautiful. But the lodge was just ok and the staff, a bunch of teens, were terrible. They were unable to give directions for even very close things; we arrived at night and asked where the visitor center was, and the teen did not know...turns out it was just a few hundred yards up the road. The snack bar was an overpriced joke that was out of half the items, and you had to drive almost an hour to find any other food options! The teens were very loud and obnoxious back in the kitchen and made the dining area unbearable. If I had to do it over again we definitely would stay in Sequoia Park instead, where the hotel was much nicer. We drove there for a real meal and knew we made a huge mistake going to Cedar Lodge.

This is a National Park Lodge. It is very basic but the location is perfect if you wish to enjoy the park and get an early start on some hiking. The room was basic but nice and clean, staff was friendly and food was decent.
