Yosemite Bug Rustic Mountain Resort

I should have written this review earlier but life got in the way. this is my second trip to the Bug. I was there for a yoga retreat and both were awesome. first and foremost---caroline the owner---she is the best. she goes out of her way to make your stay comfortable and pleasant. no matter what we asked, she had the answers. she and her staff were so accommodating. the Bug itself is divided into cabins which are mostly on the hillside and are wonderful. my cabin had the most comfortable king bed, mini frig, hairdryer, toiletries, table and chairs, balcony, nice size shower with good water pressure, plenty of drawers and hooks, great lighting, plenty of outlets---so very comfortable. our retreat included the food and believe me---the meals are amazing. we had a number of choices for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. there was also wine available for purchase. one of the great services they provided involves lunch. because so many people go to Yosemite right after breakfast, they provided a bagged lunch. really nice. I should mention that the cafe is so inviting and clean. on property is a spa, sauna, jacuzzi, and massage. there are also some trails you can hike, a place for a bonfire, and the yoga room is incredible. there are a few games like foosball too. Yosemite is about 45 min away and you can drive or use shuttle transportation. I am already booked for next October. try the bug. you won't regret it.

This is a very nice spot near Yosemite, it is about half an hour of entrance. It is very wild around, and old fashioned decoration room, but it worked for us. It has a shared kitchen and a restaurante for breakfast. Very nice mattress, and air conditioned for heating the room. The bathroom was actually a little cold. No wardrobes.

Had a two night stay in an ensuite cabin with a double and a single bed. We had no trouble parking on the same level as our cabin, meaning we only had to carry our luggage up 1.5 flights of steps and along level paved paths or decking. As expected the cabin was rather old fashioned in its furnishings but everything was clean and worked fine, except the fridge when we first arrived but that was fixed immediately by the helpful receptionist resetting the breaker. The food at breakfast and dinner, plus the “trail” packed lunches was great and we made good use of the laundry facilities. It was lovely to be able to stay in the middle of nowhere, so far from home in the UK, but with all the facilities that we could need on hand.

THIS PLACE WAS WONDERFUL, BUT NOT FOR PEOPLE WHO CANNOT WALK STAIRS OR UP AND DOWN STEEP HILLS. MY GROUP LOVED THE FOOD SOLD AT THE CANTEEN THE BEST! PRICES WERE GREAT FOR WHAT YOU GOT! THE ROOMS WERE FUN. EACH WITH THEIR OWN FLAVOR. WE LOOK FORWARD TO GOING AGAIN NEXT YEAR AT THE "GODDESS FESTIVAL" IN MARIPOSA.

I wasn't exactly sure how to rate this place. I stayed for one night after a short visit to Yosemite national Park. We had a tent cabin with two twin beds. It was a little weird for my husband and I so I'll freely admit that we ended up pushing the beds together :) Anywhoo...our cabin had a little swamp cooler that worked remarkably well. It cools off nicely in the evenings anyway, but the cooler helped. Check in was easy enough..we had a little trouble finding our cabin, but it worked. We had to share a potty but it was always available when we wanted it. Oh and the wifi was pretty good. Two suggestions for you readers: 1... Bring a flashlight. They have adequate path lighting, but I carried a flashlight on a midnight potty visit and it helped. 2. I always carry a 3 prong powerstrip with me. Usually at hotels I don't need it. I needed it for this place.
