Rush Creek Lodge and Spa at Yosemite

Rush Creek Lodge and Spa at Yosemite

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed 3 nights at Rush Creek. Our room was comfortable and clean with thoughtful touches. Our bed and pillows were perfect! The grounds are nicely landscaped and well kept. There are ample amenity spaces for groups to get together and relax comfortably. We ate at the restaurant several times - they have a varied menu that should appeal to all eaters. The food was pretty good!!! In addition, the general store in the lobby is well stocked with food, beverages, toiletries, souvenirs and household items. We liked buying our breakfast sandwiches and coffee from the store before heading out to Yosemite. The location is excellent. They also have a laundry room - very useful! Had I known, I would have packed 1/2 as much clothing. This is a great place for families and groups to stay and I would not hesitate to stay here again."
