The best accommodation we have ever stayed in!
Pros:

This place is incredible!! Would have paid double the rate we did as it’s a dream. Such a relaxed vibe, gorgeous spacious rooms and staff extremely helpful. Derek was great on check in, with no problem helping us with whatever we needed. No restaurant on site, but we went into local town and stocked up. Honestly it’s just fabulous. Rooms are massive, bathrooms with shower and bath- beautiful garden areas and pool on site. The best accommodation we have rated in this trip! Also if visiting Yosemite, it’s about a 20min drive so great after a day of hiking or sightseeing.

Cons:

Nothing- it’s fabulous!

Perfect place to stay when you want to be close to the town and close enough to Yosemite.
Pros:

Location was easy to find, the signage was very visible. We enjoyed our stay and the amenities they provided were more than adequate. The location was perfect.

Cons:

I think for what we paid for it was what we were looking for so I wouldn't say there was anything missing from the experience. The breakfast was decent, the staff were pleasant and helpful.

We love this place and wish we had booked for more than one night. Will recommend it to friends and try to come back wit
Pros:

We loved being in a historic building and not in a cookie cutter chain hotel. The historical aspect was very interesting. The furnishing the artwork, the architecture all very pleasing.

Cons:

The pillows were too bulky and difficult to sleep on. It would be nice if. They offered an alternative.

Ok but not as great as I thought it could be.
Pros:

The property was in a nice location. I would call it quirky and different. The rooms were clean.

Cons:

The rooms didn’t have a fridge. Only had one person on check in which wasn’t enough as we took half an hour to get our room. Breakfast was very restricted in its variety.

Charming ranch, but the rooms need some attention
Pros:

Sierra Sky Ranch is a charming and cozy place with a lovely ranch atmosphere. The lobby in particular is beautiful and welcoming, and the location is very convenient for visiting Yosemite.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the room itself did not quite live up to the charm of the common areas. It felt dated and could definitely benefit from some renovation. The window frames were old and damaged, the windows were quite dirty, and the floors were creaky and did not feel particularly clean. The bed could also use an upgrade, and we really missed some warm ambient lighting in the room, as it lacked a bit of atmosphere in the evening. The overall cleanliness could definitely be improved as well. There was a lot of dust.

It is a cute ranch with plenty of potential and a great location for exploring Yosemite, but the rooms need some attention and updating to make the experience match the beautiful atmosphere of the lobby. Overall, an average stay for us.

Great location with clean accommodations with a rustic touch of the old West!
Pros:

Beautiful Rustic hotel surrounded by pine trees and only 20 minute drive to South Gate entrance to Yosemite Park!

Cons:

They need to add a small refrigerator to the rooms. Also breakfast needs to be better. They should offer hot breakfast like scrambles eggs & waffles.
