Inside Yosemite N.P. Gates!, Our Cozy Rooms Are Minutes From Valley Attractions

THE DOGWOOD ROOM AT THE YOSEMITE PEREGRINE LODGE

The Dogwood room will delight and enchant you with its charming decor. This room is located at the Peregrine Lodge in Yosemite West just 20 minutes from the valley floor.

Each of our rooms has a private entrance with private shower & bathroom, outdoor deck, custom gas fireplaces, and more. This room has the added feature of a custom oversized whirlpool bathtub for two.

Please note, we are not a bed and breakfast.

For those of you who love the winter in Yosemite, you will love the easy access to snow and snow activities. We are only 20 minutes by car to the Badger Pass Ski Area for cross country, snow shoeing, snow play, and downhill skiing. On large storms, cross country ski right out from the lodge.

At just over 6000 feet, our lodge will get more snow than the Valley itself. If you want to have a higher probability of being in the snow, you will want to be in Yosemite West.

The benefits of staying at our home inside Yosemite National Park are many. By actually being inside the National Park gates, you avoid the long lines going in and out of the entrance stations. At peak season, this can be an hour or more wait time just to enter the park. This allows you to experience leisurely mornings enjoying the peace and solitude of our quiet community before taking off to see the many attractions in the park.

Returning from a day of rigorous hiking and sauntering in the valley? Ice skating at Curry Village? Cross country skiing on our groomed and un-groomed trails? or Down hill skiing at the local ski resort? You will be happy to know home is just a short drive away.

We offer a clean, well maintained lodge that is the ideal home base for your Yosemite experience. Please, no smoking, no pets.


ATTRACTIONS AND DISTANCES

The distance from Yosemite West to famous landmarks are: Badger Pass Ski Area 6.5 miles (10,5 km), Tunnel View 8.3 miles (13,4 km), Bridalveil Falls 9.8 miles (15,8 km), Wawona Hotel 12.4 miles (20 km), The Ahwahnee Hotel 15.9 miles (25,6 km), Glacier Point 16.2 miles (26 km) and El Portal 21.7 miles (35 km).

OUR HOME

The Yosemite Peregrine Lodge is a multi-level 3200 square foot home. We offer the entire home as a vacation rental between April 1 and December 31 each year. During this time the lodge is suitable for couples, families and executive retreats for up to 8 people.

During the winter months, January through the end of March, the individual rooms are available to rent for one or 2 guests each room.

Unusual for most homes in the Yosemite West community, the Peregrine Lodge is situated on a rather level area. This means you do not have to negotiate the steep stairs that earmark many houses.

Entering the home through a door on the same level as the parking, you will find easy access to the lodge and our guest rooms.

PARKING

We have guest parking for 3 midsize vehicles in driveway. We cannot accommodate RVs in the winter due to snow and ice conditions.

SLEEPING ACCOMMODATIONS

Each bedroom has both interior and exterior entries. They each have their own sink and shower, entry to their own private deck area, and a unique and beautiful floor to ceiling fireplace. One of the bedrooms even has a jet tub.

Our unique and cozy rooms are thematic in nature. The Peregrine Lodge is regarded as a quiet escape and romantic getaway for most of our guests, and we work hard to foster that environment.

Therefore, it is not an appropriate place for children under 14. Persons who are not registered guests are not permitted on the property. Our guests do not have visitation rights.

LODGEPOLE ROOM:*
Lodgepole furniture and a queen size bed, floor to ceiling fireplace with touches of native american art, and more.

ASPEN ROOM:*
This room has our king size bed. The rock fireplace also features aspen trees, thematic art and more.

DOGWOOD ROOM:*
Our largest room with a queen bed, custom rock fireplace featuring Dogwood trees, thematic art, and more.

* Please note we have a max occupancy of 2 persons per room.

LIVING AREA

The main floor is closed to visitors between December 31 and April 1 each year.

There are no laundry facilities at the lodge.

EATING

We provide an electric water boiler and coffee pot with coffee and tea, sugar and creamer. There is small refrigerator in the room for snacks. There is absolutely no cooking allowed in the rooms. Hot pans, electric skillets or other means of cooking stoves or appliance are not allowed. There is a small microwave in the shared lobby.

There are markets, cafeterias, coffee shops and restaurants located in the valley just 20 minutes away by car from the lodge.

HOME ENTERTAINMENT

We provide satellite TV and DVD players in each bedroom. There are also books and board games available.

INTERNET AVAILABILITY

We offer WiFi to our guests. You will find the password in the guest notebook in the room. Due to being at 6,000 feet of elevation surrounded by forest, the internet connection can be challenging at times. Please no streaming or downloading of large files. The internet is meant for you to be able to email, text and stay connected. Thanks for your consideration.


This is an ideal home for those who are seeking upscale cozy winter accommodations inside Yosemite.

Anniversary getaway
This was a fantastic stay. We rented out a single room, and it was perfect. It was warm and cozy, the location was great, and the jacuzzi was a great bonus. Our hosts were great, and we appreciated the promptness of their responses.

Great Location for Yosemite Visit
Very nice lodge and room in an excellent location. My second trip to Yosemite and second stay in Yosemite West. I love this location. Yosemite West is very convenient and more affordable and easier to book than a stay in the valley floor. Room was great with several nice touches, like snacks and fresh ground coffee.

Great Stay.
The place was relaxing, cozy and easy to get to. With the activities we had planned, this was a perfect location and the whirl pool and fireplace were wonderful after a day of xc skiing. The property manager’s communication with us was very good so that we had no trouble knowing exactly what to expect.

Beautiful lodge in the heart of Yosemite NP
Excellent spot! Exactly as described. GPS took us right to it, but heads up -- be sure and download/record the check-in instructions before you get in the valley in case you don't have cell service. The room was very comfortable and had everything we needed, including coffee and snacks. Vonnie was super friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay here again!

Amazing!
Amazing stay! The dogwood room was beautiful and had a lovely fireplace and bath tub! It was cutely decorated and was just the amount of space for 2. It also had a cute little balcony. Located about 25 mins from the valley, with breath taking views all the way down. Vonnie was amazing, very attentive to our needs and made sure to do everything possible to give us a great stay! Will definitely be back!

Peregrine Lodge provided us with an excellent safe, comfortable, convenient, and romantic getaway after nearly a year in Covid shut down. It was everything we were looking for with a private deck, fireplace, jet tub for 2 and fluffy bed with lots of pillows. The owners are very attentive and a delight to work with. Best way to visit Yosemite!
