Plan your stay near Yosemite
Choose your lodging by the days you want to spend, the entrance you expect to use, and the time you are willing to drive.
Start with your Yosemite route
For Yosemite Valley and other park destinations, compare the west entrance corridors: Highway 120 through Groveland, Highway 140 through Mariposa and El Portal, and Highway 41 through Oakhurst and Fish Camp. Each route offers a different lodging base. Compare all five Yosemite entrances, including the seasonal east entrance and Hetch Hetchy. Check the exact address and driving directions for any property before you book.
Make a separate Highway 108 trip
Sonora, Twain Harte, Strawberry, and Pinecrest make sense for a Sierra vacation centered on Highway 108. Pinecrest Lake and the surrounding forest are reasons to visit in their own right. Highway 108 is not a direct west entrance to Yosemite, so compare your actual route if you plan to visit both areas. Explore the Pinecrest and Strawberry lodging guide.
Compare stays with these questions
- What is the drive to your main destination at the time you plan to travel?
- Does the property offer the room type, parking, accessibility, and amenities you need?
- What are the cancellation terms and the full price after taxes and fees?
- Are roads and park facilities open for your dates?
Use the National Park Service driving directions and current conditions when planning your route. Confirm lodging details directly with the property.
