One of our favorite activities when staying at the lodge is to drive the Sierra Vista Scenic Byway couple of hours before sunset.
There is something therapeutic about the meadows when they’re bathed in that pristine, golden hour light.
While we soak in the views, the kids love climbing the formations and "pretending" to topple the iconic Globe Rock. 📸

On our last drive up Beasore Road in early April, we even found roadside snow for the kids to play in and beautiful dogwoods in bloom. The best part? No crowds or traffic—just total serenity.

It’s the “almost” shots that keep them coming back for more. We love seeing our guests (and our own family!) make memories in the backyard. Who’s ready for a rematch? ☀️

Spring in Yosemite is special. Waterfalls are raging, wildflowers blooming, dogwoods dotting the drive, great weather and fewer crowds 🙂

-We visited on a Wednesday and had no lines at the south gate, and plenty of open parking spots at curry village.
Quick shuttle to stop 16 to start our Mist trail hike. Thankfully, we had brought rain ponchos. It was not misting but literally raining when you get close to Vernal falls

-Hike to Wapama falls at Hetch hetchy was a welcome surprise. So much packed into this 5 mile hike. Multiple waterfalls, streams, so many butterflies throughout the trail that we had to tread carefully, wildflowers all around. Some elevation gain, but not bad
