We were surprised and thankful to find such a nice Lodge that was available to us on such short notice ! They even accepted our pets !

We took our boat to beautiful Cherry lake twice, and brought back trout each time. Yosemite valley was a must see with all it's natural wonder. We looked foreword to the relaxing environment in the evenings sitting by the fire . So much to see and do, our one week trip went way too fast ! There is a lot more exploring for us to do in this unforgettable area ! A HUGE Thanks to Nancy and Lynn for making our vacation a fun experience !

We'll be back , Rusty and Ruby
along with Buck & Nikko

 Located just a few minutes from the Hotel Charlotte, the Guide Guys Lower Lodge is an 800 sq ft finished open space (with that log cabin feel, lots of wood) with living sections set up to include a living room with fireplace, a dining area, microwave, refrigerator, and coffee pot and bedroom area. There is no stove or oven cooking in the lower lodge, though there is an outdoor built in grill that many guests have enjoyed using.  Furnished with a queen bed and two futon couch/beds the lodge can comfortably sleep up to 6 people. The bath has a marvelous claw-foot tub with a shower. The whole setting is very private with good views and a great hammock! 

We understand that it isn't always easy to get away for more than one night, so these rooms are always available for a single overnight, but we do offer discounts for multiple night stays. We encourage you to spend the extra day or two exploring Yosemite, the gold country and more of our area! Book online today!
