Yosemite View Lodge Review
Just 2 miles outside the park's Arch Rock entrance, this modern property is the most convenient place to spend the night if you are unable to secure lodgings in the Valley. All rooms have good views, but the ones with balconies that overlook the Merced River are the best. You have your choice of four pools here, one of which is indoors. The restaurant cooks up an impressive breakfast buffet, and there also is an on-site pizza joint. The gift shop and grocery store are open until 11 pm.
