Not a true fireplace but big flames and fireplace heat at the end of a long hiking day is a really nice atmosphere to relax in. It is exactly what you would want a big lodge to look like, cozy, entrance and grand room decor made from big trees (very similar to Ahwahnee).and it also has private house-like cabins with gas-only fireplaces that are very well kept (which is where we stayed). And its cheaper than the ugly and uninviting Yosemite Lodge. It is located about half way between the south entrance and the valley floor. Its a better version of the Ahwahnee but just not on the valley floor. Remove them from the valley floor and you might expect to pay $200/$75 respectively in any other city. Their biggest perk is they have yo staying down in the valley in the middle of one of the most scenic views on the planet.and they make you pay for that view. Pros: Ahwahnee Lodge > $600 per night, beautiful,upscale lodge.lots of tourist traffic, very expensive Yosemite Lodge > $350 per night, lots of tourist traffic, old government like track housing buildings, not exactly a beautiful place.but def very functional, but still very expensive for you what you get.this place does not give you the cozy, big lodge like the Ahwahnee Essentially the two above places are about 1/2 mile from each other on the valley floor pretty much in the same complex.
