Stayed in one of the cabins for five nights. Very quiet, easy parking and friendly staff. Lucky Buck Cafe on-site was decent and reasonably priced. Good price and value for proximity to Yosemite. I would stay here again.

We stayed 4 nights at Buck Meadows Lodge. We enjoyed the close proximity to Yosemite. We also enjoyed several meals at the Lucky Buck Cafe that was near our room. The rooms were clean and the staff were friendly. Would stay here again!

Disliked: Cleanliness
I am not typically a complainer, but the television was not connected to the direct tv box and not configured or working, there were noisey employees talking and playing music at the table directly outside our door, pubic hairs in our bed. Also the WiFi would not work. Bath faucet not working correctly. Other than that it was ok.

Quaint spot outside of Yosemite

Great spot. Big room with mini fridge and freezer. Restaurant next door was very vegetarian friendly and yummy, but I think the lodge wifi clashed with restaurant because I couldn't really use it. I would also recommend they tailor their curtains because the AC mostly cooled down their curtain and not the room lol.

There is only one reason why you are staying here .... and that is to have a bed to sleep in on a trip to Yosemite. Amenities? do they matter? they have a fire pit ... i did not see anyone using it. The lodge is managed by the same place as the lodge next door, but having a different name. Check in is next door. There is a bar/ restaurant on property looked cool, but closes early. I dont know what else to say, room was OK, nothing special. Clean but small. The trash truck came by at 8 am and sounded like they were picking up the same dumpster for 20 minutes straight waking us up. If you wake up early, it wont be a problem.

When we arrived I was concerned what the room would look like. The property needs a lot of work. It’s very rundown with buildings that need to be disposed of. The personnel were great. Very nice. Answered all our questions and offered to change our room if we we were dissatisfied. Our room was great though. The interior was spotless, bedding fresh and the bathroom was clean with plenty of available amenities. So while the outside was a little worrisome, the room itself was great. Thank you for the nice, quiet stay.

This place was honestly so cute and perfect. We went there to take a little vacation after being diagnosed with cancer, and I'm so glad we did. 10-15 minutes from the entry to Yosemite, 30-40 minutes to Hetch Hetchy, and everything was just gorgeous. The restaurant was good - good food, great service, with a cute lil gift shop. I do wish the store it looks like they used to have was open, but that's okay. Overall, definitely a repeat stay for us.

We recently stayed at Buck Meadows Lodge from Thursday, July 31st to Friday, August 1st. I have never said this to a hotel in a lifetime of hotel stays. We checked in around 9:00 p.m. after dinner. We were exhausted from a day of hiking and all we wanted was to shower and go to bed. My wife went first and saw that the bathtub had not been cleaned. It was actually dirty, grimy and had hair. She had to use a soapy washcloth to wipe the bathtub clean. As I said, I have never seen this in my lifetime, arriving at a hotel with a dirty bathtub. It is disgusting and unacceptable.
