Yosemite Ridge Resort is located on State Highway 120 which is open all year, and is only 12 miles from Yosemite National Park’s west gate. The resort is located in Buck Meadows, population 50, within the beautiful Stanislaus National Forest surrounded by pine covered mountains. This is the perfect base camp for your Yosemite Adventure - whether it be for one night or one week.
Yosemite Ridge Resort is 43 acre facility featuring cabin (and camping cabin) rentals, full hookup RV spaces, restaurant, general store, gasoline, propane and laundromat on premise. The swimming pool is actually a natural pool, with green shores and a waterfall. The restaurant is the 49'er, built in 1952 and lovingly restored, and offers substantial portions for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Even the showers are unique, also built in the 1950s, and their walls are cedar.
Rafting and golf are scarcely a walk away and beautiful Toloumne River Canyon is nearby, a wonderful hike in and of itself. Park your RV here, have a meal, and go out and explore.
