Tenaya Lodge at Yosemite is set at the national park’s South Gate, a stunning mountain destination right next door to Yosemite National Park in the Sierra National Forest. Tenaya Lodge is an all-season resort that offers AAA Four-Diamond Yosemite accommodations, including Lodge Rooms and Cottage Rooms, a rich range of recreational activities, and awe-inspiring natural beauty at every turn. Located just two miles from the park’s south entrance, our resort offers the cozy feel of a mountain retreat – but features a full range of world-class amenities. 

Here at Tenaya Lodge, we like to call it “roughing it” minus the “rough” part. The warm and inviting atmosphere of Tenaya’s Yosemite National Park lodging is reflected in our guestrooms and suites.  Here, you will discover a rich resort realm with room to stretch out and recall the sights and sounds of your national park day, picture-windows filled with forest views and furnishings infused with Native American design.  For socializing, there’s Tenaya Lodge’s Grand Lobby, with soaring, open-beam ceilings, classic lodge furniture and roaring, rock-hewn fireplace.

All Tenaya Lodge accommodations feature the modern amenities of an AAA Four-Diamond resort experience. Bath amenities include all-natural ingredients and eco-friendly packaging. Fully equipped Yosemite Park lodging for physically challenged guests is also available.

Yosemite Park Details 
Yosemite National Park embraces almost 1,200 square miles of scenic wild lands set aside in 1890 to preserve a portion of the central Sierra Nevada that stretches along California’s eastern flank. The park was established on October 1, 1890.

The protected status that Yosemite Park has enjoyed over the last 120 years has allowed for the preservation of many of its plant species and wildlife.

Yosemite National Park covers a huge area of the western Sierra Nevada Mountains in central California and has innumerable lakes, meadows, forests and granite summits with endless unspoiled alpine scenery. At the center is Yosemite Valley, a half-mile deep depression carved by glaciers during the last ice age, which now has soaring 3,000 foot high domes and many powerful waterfalls, including three of the world’s highest. Visitors all year can gaze up from the Valley floor to appreciate the enormity of it all. During summer (or for those willing to do an overnight ski trip in winter), the view from Glacier Point provides a breathtaking perspective from above.

Today visitation to Yosemite National Park is around 5 million visitors annually. Visitation exceeded one million in 1954 for the first time and by 1976 over two million people were visiting Yosemite annually. However, even with the increasing visitation to the park, all you have to do is lift your eyes ever so slightly above the crowds and you’ll feel your heart instantly moved by unrivalled splendors. The haughty profile of Half Dome, the hulking presence of El Capitan, the drenching mists of Yosemite Falls, the gemstone lakes of the high country’s subalpine wilderness, the giant sequoias of Wawona, Hetch Hetchy’s pristine pathways, all of these beautiful natural wonders will make you feel at one with the pristine Yosemite wilderness.
