In a hillside woodland setting close to the entrance to Yosemite National Park, Rush Creek Lodge offers warm, friendly service and a wealth of activities. You can hire a bike, enjoy a yoga class, relax by the pool or play a game of bumper pool! Enjoy the fresh California cuisine at the lodge’s two restaurants — both with al fresco seating for the warmer days. Choose between the rustic yet stylish Restaurant with its wood-burning oven and open kitchen, or the more casual Tavern with its big screen TVs, signature cocktails and evening music. There's also daily activities, from wildlife talks and kids crafts to beer tasting - and the lodge's nightly tradition of complimentary s'mores by the fire pit.

Amazing Stay

We had an amazing time the location and the lodge were spectacular. We didn’t want to leave! We had a 1 and 4 year old with us and they had plenty of things to do. Can’t wait to be back everyone was friendly and the outdoor/indoor activities were great.
Great facility, wonderful stay

Our experience was excellent. The facility is outstanding, the rooms are super comfortable, the dining spaces are really nice, the grounds are beautiful and the staff was super helpful. And on top of it all, a social mission and Youth Internship/Development Program that are worth learning more about.
Great Stay! we’d like to be back in Summer

Great location, friendly staff and kid-friendly facilities. Beautifully designed, comfortable and clean rooms. We stayed there with our son and my father in the Villas. The environment is charming especially during sunrise and sunset. Good for couples and families. It is closed to Yosemite Entrance
Great and well located!

All the rest is 10/10

Magical

This location is amazing. A few miles from Yosemite and all I can say is that Rush Creek is magical and if you have the opportunity to splurge and stay here-you should! We experienced an emergency in the park and the staff sprang into action to support us. I can’t even tell you how amazingly magical this property is-you just have to try!
