Yosemite Westgate Lodge

This is a nice property. There are four separate lodging buildings, each with 8 to 10 units/rooms. I prepaid on a website, the whole amount due. Yet, when I arrived, I was charged an additional $150.00 together with an explanation given to me 3 or 4 times by the manager at the counter, I still do not understand. Since we left early on the last day of our stay, before the office opened at 8:00 AM, I just left this issue unresolved. On the way home, using Hwy. 120, we stopped at the hotel for clarification regarding the $150 "deposit." I left as confused as I had been before. I understood that we had been charged an additional $10 for something related to taxes or surcharges. Regarding the $150 charged to my debit card on checking in, again after having paid the full amount on the website, I am still in the dark.

The bed was a very old spring bed. The room was extremely outdated however it was clean.

The lodge was clean and well maintained. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The restaurant next door was great! Had two meals there and they didn't disappoint. I would recommend both the lodge and restaurant to travelers in the area.

Ants were everywhere. We had to throw away some of the food items because of that. No compensation was provided.

This was our first stay at Westgate Lodge, and ooooh, will we be so happy to stay there again in the future! We enjoyed a hotel room in the main area of the hotel rooms our first night there, and on our second night, we moved to a sweet cabin that is located behind the Buckmeadow Restaurant (soon to be renamed Lucky Buck Restaurant!). Oh, both rooms were such a good, comfortable places to stay in a lovely area east of the town of Groveland -- and the restaurant is fantastic! We loved enjoying both breakfast and dinners there.
