Great Family Fun

The game room was a highlight of our stay! We spent hours enjoying billiards and pinball, and the kids loved the various games available. It provided a fantastic way for the family to bond and have fun together, away from screens.

Delicious BBQ Night

We had the pleasure of attending the poolside BBQ, and it was very nice! The variety of meat options and sides was impressive, and everything was delicious. It felt special to dine outdoors with such a stunning view and enjoy quality time with family.

We had a lovely stay at Rush Creek Lodge, which is conveniently located just a short drive from Yosemite's entrance. The family-friendly environment with numerous activities kept everyone entertained, and we truly appreciated the spacious villas. However, our dining experience could be improved as the menu seemed quite limited, and the service during peak times was not ideal. Overall, a great place for family adventures, but a few adjustments could enhance the experience even further.

Our stay at the lodge was wonderful, especially for families. The spacious, well-equipped accommodations and the evening s'mores by the fire pit were standout features. However, the dining service was hit and miss, and our romantic getaway did not feel as peaceful as expected due to family-oriented activities during our stay.
