Nice place to stay when visiting Yosemite
Enjoyed our stay at Queen's Inn by the River. Comfortable bed, clean room, had everything we needed. Very nice staff. We had a room with a deck on back which is very nice and private. Well-kept grounds. Would definitely stay here again.

Went on a Monday for 1 night. Got the king room with jetted tub. Jetted tub was great but everything else lacked. Check in was easy but unsafe (guest name on envelope with a key) Doors only have 1 handle lock on the handle that can easily be picked or broken No dead bolt no keyless entry. No black out curtains. King bed was spring mats and squeaky with every movement (uncomfortable). The property itself was clean and nice and quiet.

Great place near Yosemite
Charming cabin, pleasing property, free wine tasting. Restaurant and winery are great, owner has homeade bread for sale, and homeade cookies in our room when we checked in. Very close to Yosemite! Restaurant is popular with locals, always a good sign.

Oakhurst Yosemite Stay
We were in town to visit Yosemite for a couple of days. We chose this place in Oakhurst for the proximity to the park. Nice little cabin for two nights and the check in was easy and allowed in early. Steven was great and offered recommendations for restaurants and things to do. The cabin is pretty small and the bathroom is very small area so just be aware and prepare for the situation. It’s very clean and area around it with the restaurant and wine bar is really nice. Again it was nice and convenient and clean so we were pleased with our stay. Just wanted you to know it’s not real big and you need to be prepared for that.

28th Wedding Anniversary gone bad!!!
The last night of are stay at the Queens Inn By The River. We had no electricity in our room. Due to a power outage about 2:00pm. There wasn’t even enough water in the room to flush toilets!!! Above all it was our 28th wedding anniversary!!! I think we should have gotten one night free. Since we had no electricity to the room. The room was very hot to stay in. So we had to stay outside.

Queens Inn by the river was a gem. The room space was very large and accommodating. The snacks and coffee provided were amazing. The town was beautiful with lots of shops and places to explore. We wished we had stayed while the restaurant and winery were open, but perhaps next time. We would definitely visit again, Queens Inn by the river was awesome!

Quaint Inn near the southern entrance to Yosemite. If your looking for simple, CLEAN, safe and near Yosemite this is the place. Staff is friendly and helpful. The snacks provided were a nice surprise. Rooms have all the basics- Bed, Mini Fridge, Microwave and a nice deck with a patio table and chairs to enjoy your morning coffee. Property has a cute wine bar and restaurant on site. We’ll definitely stay here again.

We loved our room! It was quaint, clean and perfect for two! The bed was comfortable, but unfortunately the pillows are awful!! Your head couldn’t sink in at all and we ended up taking the pillows out of the shams and used them. We would definitely stay again but I’d bring our own pillows.

The motel was ok. The bed is room 1 makes so much noise just sitting on it. Very poor Wi-Fi. The bathroom was good. Plenty of parking.

Our room was comfortable, lovely and spacious, and the private patio with a table and chairs was a nice touch. We had our coffee out there every morning even though it was frosty outside. The views were worth it. The first night, our heat did not work, and neither did the fireplace. The next morning we were moved to another room, and between the heat and the fireplace we were toasty warm for the rest of our stay. (Staff offered to move us that night, but we were exhausted from traveling.) Overall, if you want quiet and convenience to town and Yosemite, the Queen's Inn is an excellent choice.

Wifi connection was terrible in my room. None of my devices could connect to the wifi. Called the staff but not helpful; said nothing else they could do but sorry. The wifi didn’t work for the whole time I stayed there. No daily cleaning. There were small bugs and ants in the room. I got some bites on my legs, not sure if that were bc of the ants or something else. Restroom smelled kinda bad. Too expensive for just a bed to stay, but it’s 14miles from the south entrance so that’s the price for it.
