Frommer's Yosemite & Sequoia/Kings Canyon National Parks
Chapter One
Where to Stay & Eat
in Yosemite
There is no lack of choices for accommodations in and near
Yosemite National Park. Yosemite Valley is the hub for lodging, dining,
and other services within the park, and is usually quite crowded
in summer, but it offers the best location-close to Yosemite's main
attractions and with easy access to the park's shuttle-bus system.
A more narrow scope of choices is available outside the valley, but
still within the park: You can camp at Wawona, Tuolumne Meadows,
White Wolf, and a host of other campsites; and there are privately
owned cabins and bed-and-breakfasts. In addition, there are
some delightful (and generally less expensive) accommodations,
campgrounds, and restaurants outside the park in the gateway communities
of El Portal, Mariposa, Oakhurst, and Groveland.
