Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
This property is fantastic. The staff are friendly, the room is clean, the property is located in a great area within an easy drive to the Yosemite valley. The pool was very cold but on a hot day would be a welcome treat. The atmosphere at night was great with a sunset deck, s’mores for the kids and just a lovely place to be. We really enjoyed our stay here.

As good as it’s gets outside Yosemite
Great family place with lots to do on the grounds and most of it is included in the room rate… Neat concept, very much enjoyed our stay. Also, not a far drive to entrance of Yosemite.

Our cabin room was fabulous, clean and comfortable, with amazing views. The facilities were great and there was a lovely family friendly atmosphere. We enjoyed the pool (sipping a beer from the poolside bar whilst my kids swam!), the games room and s'mores by the fire pit. There was more to enjoy, such as the zip wire, table tennis and climbing wall, but sadly we didn't fit it all in as we were also enjoying exploring Yosemite! I cannot recommend Rushcreek Lodge more highly.

Highly recommend!
New-ish property with a rustic feel but full amenities. Very nice staff. Cool game room and outdoor play area for kids and preteens. Kids buffet dinner choices were a hit with my 7 year old. Guided tour of Yosemite with our guide Chris was great! Highly recommend Rush Creek Lodge.

Staff on numerous occasions failed to take gluten allergy seriously enough, leading to my wife being ill. The manager once told did take this on board and said more training would be done. But for a high cost, high value resort this shouldn't have been neccesary.

Beautiful Property
The staff at reception could not have been more friendly or welcoming. They were a breath of fresh air after a long day of traveling and they greeted us each day as we passed the reception area. Wish the woman working in the area that sells food, drinks, brkfst food etc. was half as friendly as the reception staff. Sadly she should be in a customer facing job.

We came to Rush Creek for our wedding and the staff were able to pull off a last minute private dining room for us. I don’t normally write reviews but I had to for our INCREDIBLE waitress (and photographer) Linda. She went above and beyond to make sure my family felt special and celebrated.

Mixed experience
Lovely hotel, lovely pool, great buildings, but eye-wateringly expensive for what it is. Poor choice of healthy options for kids for a family hotel. Also, we had a device stolen from us while on the premises which was not really the hotel’s fault, but extremely disappointing.
