Our family visited in April. We wanted a sunset tour. There were concerns about the road conditions due to recent rain and snow. Kristina was great working with us and staying in contact about possible alternatives. We ended up seeing the sunset while overlooking Bass Lake. Chase was our guide and he was great. Love having locals show you the sites and tell you about the area! Definitely recommend this if you’re in the area!

Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad

Four-mile excursion on a narrow-gauge railroad through Sierra National Forest's scenic landscape.

Reviewed By Glenda G - Coarsegold, California

There's a little something for the whole family. History buffs will enjoy riding on the original narrow gauge rails that were used her during the logging period that started California's boom. After riding the train through scenic sugar pine woods, enjoy a BBQ lunch serves family style on picnic tables and rub elbows with new friends. Then pan or gold, or shop in the one of a kind memento shop, or explore the old vintage fire engine. Caution: September 2017 there was a fire in the area so call first before going.

Big Trees Lodge, National Historic Landmark

This Victorian style lodge features beautiful white buildings, classic verandas and lush natural surroundings. At Big Trees Lodge, there’s something for everyone—including golf, tennis, horseback riding, or fishing. In the evening, wind down your fun filled day by gathering around the piano for musical performances in the lounge.

Reviewed By Judy O - Martinez, California

Back to the Wawona Hotel for our annual visit. Yes, I know, the name has been changed to "Big Trees", but, somehow, that just doesn't do it justice. This hotel and the outlying buildings take you back about 100 years. So - if it's peace and quiet that you want, with no TVs in the rooms, and no cell phone/tablet hookups, then this is the place for you. We stayed in the Annex building, close to the hotel with the dining room and the parlor with the piano. We had dinner in the hotel, and then strolled about 50 feet to the parlor for a night's rendition of some wonderful old tunes. And, of course, we will return again next year

Lewis Creek Trail

Reviewed By Zoom_Gotti - Henderson, Nevada

Nice family hike along the creek passing two falls, Corlieu and Red Rock. One way is uphill, the other down. Try to car pool. Local youths come here to swim in the falls pools. Shady most of the way. There's one point where you may have to get your feet wet to cross the creek. But that's part of the fun! Not too far south of the Wawona entry to Yosemite. Good wakeup hike.

We hiked the north side one day. Biked south side another day. Lower Yosemite Falls to Anwahnee Hotel to Yosemite Village has slight incline the beginning, steeper decline toward Anwahnee. Lunch in Church Bowl is shaded with restrooms.

Beautiful photo op at Swinging Bridge. Slight incline going toward Half Dome Village. Air conditioning at the village with food options and flushing toilets.

Great photo ops around eastern loop toward Tenaya Creek and back toward Yosemite Village.
