Leaving

Place was spotless and Pamela’s attention to detail was perfect. Her local knowledge helped find quiet and fantastic spots to hike away from the crowds.

This B and B is located just outside of the south entrance to Yosemite National Park. Pamela was an excellent host, offering suggestions for places to see, dining locations, recommended parking locations, etc. The continental breakfast was slightly varied each morning with some snacks available for use on the go in the park. The room was beautiful with an extremely comfortable King size bed and a pretty view of a creek outside the patio door.

It took an hour to drive to the Yosemite Village...not the facilities fault.

This facility was a great surprise...wonderful. We could ask for nothing; the room was wonderful and very clean. The room was quite and peaceful. The creek out back made the balcony a pleasant experience

There was not a thing we didn’t like.

The breakfast was the best one we had throughout our holiday in America. Pamela was ready for our arrival to show us to our room and she gave great recommendations for our visit. Good location near to the entrance gate. Definitely the right choice.

The breakfast was disappointing. For the exceptionally high room rate (and the description of the b&b on its own website as a 4 star hotel) it should have been more of an experience not a grab and go style of a motel rather than a relaxing homely experience. We didn't expect to have to eat in our room. The whole b&b experience is about meeting other guests and the host and chatting over breakfast. Apparently the breakfast style changed during covid, understandably, however it is now rather perfunctory. The selection was mostly prepackaged, single portion items including yoghurt, cheese, jam, protein type shakes and shriveled tired fruit, muffin, and bread items with a toaster. No cereals as referenced in other reviews. The next door guests got up first and we had to ask for more! Hard boiled eggs were provided, however not cooked daily. The quantities were calculated per person giving the experience a lack of generosity. The village is small with a general store and a resort hotel nearby so dinner options required a car. The village is near the Park entrance, however it is a 30 mile drive to Yosemite Village.

The room was superb - the bed was large and comfortable and the view over the creek was lovely - complete with a morning coyote visit. The balcony offered a great place to relax in the sun. There is an excellent DVD collection for late night movies. Parking was available. The Innkeeper/owner Pamela was very helpful with information on the park and walks etc.

Nothing. It was just what we wanted.

Breakfast was so thoughtful. There were plenty of options. Plus, she made sure to include portable protein bars for us to take on our hike. And we enjoyed evening tea.

The location is just perfect for any trip to Yosemite Park and Pamela is supernice and helpful host. The room is cozy, all amenities work beautiful!

The Big Creek Inn is located about 2 miles from the entrance to Yosemite. We had the Mariposa room which has a king size bed, and a wonderful balcony view. It was very quiet and Pamela, the owner, made our stay very nice. She was i’ll, but still provided tips on where to go for hiking and dinner. The breakfast was continental and very good. I highly recommend you stay here when visiting Yosemite.

I enjoyed Pam’s friendliness and knowledge about the area. It was mine & my now fianceé’s first trip to Yosemite and Pam shows us the map of Yosemite and it’s a surrounding areas. She carefully explained to us what routes best to take for our every occasion. I love how comfortable our stay was, which made the trip so worth it! Thank you so much Pam!!

The weather was cold - we should have brought more cold weather clothes - not the Inn’s fault

Pamela is a brilliant host, she gave us so much advice about Yosemite like where to go and helped with routes etc. breakfast was great too!

Lovely lodge close to Yosemite Park Gate, perfectly clean, well-equiped and comfortable room and above all Pamela - incredible host. At 6.15 our high-prorein and tasty breakfast was ready. Then she helped us with organising our day. Lots of information, practical hints made our days full of excitement and trouble-free. It was worth to stay there.

Loved the close proximity to Yosemite, the breakfast selection and added extras like board games and DVDs which made for a cosy stay. Pamela was a great host who helped us with an itinerary for Yosemite and we appreciate the advice she gave. The balcony was amazing for watching the stars in the clear night sky. We wish we could have stayed longer!

There is nothing to dis-like about Big Creek Lodge and its location.

A wonderful room in a beautiful Lodge and a great location, 5 mins from Yosemite South Gate. Pamela was so helpful, and informative, and nothing was too much trouble, she advised us where to go and at the best time, we got to do everything and avoided all the huge queues. Breakfast was available from 6am so we could be out early. peanuts for the Blue Jays were provided and they entertained us most evenings :-)

Super close to Yosemite, beautiful views from the room, super helpful and informative host. We’ll definitely be back!

Both the property and Pamela are AMAZING. Not only the property is located in an beautiful location, but it is also very close to the park south entrance (about 2 miles). Pamela is the best host you could imagine, she helped us optimize the itinerary and pick up the right hikes and woke up very early every day (before 6 am) to ensure we had our breakfast ready before going to the park. Btw, breakfast is INCREDIBLE (and very healthy as well, which we loced). I would reccommend this place to anyone and anytime and would definetly repeat if we ever go back to Yosemite.

Breakfast is a bit too simple.

lt’s a guiet and cozy place to stay. The blue bird called steller’s jay will fly to the balcony and eat peanuts which is cute.

Nothing - everything was perfect.

A lot of thought has gone into what anyone staying here might need. It was meticulously clean. We loved being able to put our breakfast tray together and then sitting out on our balcony to enjoy.

Stayed in May 2023

Nothing could have been better. I cannot think of any improvements needed. Breakfast was ready each morning just outside our room and the sound of the creek was comforting.

Our stay was exceptional. I truly have not experienced this excellence in a place and with the innkeeper as well. Our room was spotless, lovely and service was unmatched.
