    Curry Village Cabins

    We stayed in a Curry Village Cabin when we attended the Bracebridge Dinner at the Ahwahnee Hotel and absolutely loved our cabin.

    I can honestly say it was the best night's sleep we have had in any of the Yosemite lodges we have stayed in.

    The beds were super comfortable and the new bedding is amazing. We were there in December and it was super quiet leading to a great night's sleep.

    We would have happily spent multiple days in the cabin just enjoying a great night's sleep and exploring the park during the day.

    Our cabin had 1 twin bed and 1 double bed along with a dresser, small closet, and private bathroom. The bathroom is not huge but it is private and has a shower so that is a total win!

    The cabins offer easy access to the Mist Trail and truly the heart of Yosemite Valley.

    In the winter you are super close to the ice skating rink and great trails within the park.

    During the summer the cabins are the perfect base for exploring this amazing California National Park.

    The cabins are near the pizza parlor and other dining options. You can easily walk from the cabin to the shuttle bus or area trails.
