Have you ever stayed here? I saw a link to this and unless someone tells me different, it's going on my bucket list.

Hmmm. I've never heard of it and it looks impressive. Just to confirm its pronunciation....

The pics look great, but I think it might be priced a bit higher than most NICOnauts would be willing to pay for a stay during a National Park vacation ($500-$550/night + taxes/fees). It looks like it could use some additional shrubbery.

It's beautiful but there's no way I would pay that. I just want to go see it and take some pictures. :-)Yosemite is one of the few National Parks I have never been in and is definitely on my list. James sent this to me over a year ago. I've wanted to go ever since.

When planning a trip to Cali and yosemite we had come across this hotel. It looks amazing! I saw a feature on National Parks and lodging on PBS a while back. I think one of my dream accommodations would be a backcountry permit for Yosemite in a two man tent miles away from any access roads.

I like to camp but not for too many nights in a row. I like having a shower at least every other day. :chuckle:
