Rush Creek Lodge sits just half a mile from the Park’s Highway 120 west entrance, providing an ideal launching point for exploration into all parts of Yosemite. The lodge is just a 3-hour drive from the San Francisco Bay Area along scenic Highway 120, the most direct route to Yosemite from the Bay Area, offering year-round access to the Park.

The first new lodge in the area in more than 25 years, Rush Creek features a contemporary, rustic sensibility inspired by the breathtaking expanse of nature surrounding its 20-acre wooded hillside setting. Overnight guests can choose from a mix of 143 tastefully appointed lodge rooms, suites, and hillside Yosemite villas, all featuring a deck overlooking nature, the majority with sunset views.

Rush Creek Lodge features customizable, full-service meeting and event space for groups of up to 200 people. Guests may select open-air meeting options or indoor settings that can scale from casual to sophisticated throughout the seasons. Groups can just as easily meet in our event hall as in a nearby meadow surrounded by towering pines.

Having hosted people for over a century at our neighboring sister property, the Evergreen Lodge, we understand that each group has specific needs, and we’re happy to work with you on lodging options, budget realities, meal options, facility choices, recreation ideas, and more. You can rely on our flexibility and creativity in realizing the celebration of your dreams. We reduce the pressure of planning, giving you more time to enjoy your guests and the beauty that surrounds you. In 2024, we added Firefall Ranch to our Yosemite hotel collection. 

Please let me know if you are interested in more information about either of our sister properties with your proposal.
