Hillside Villas

Spread throughout the hillside and forest of our 20-acre property, our spacious two-bedroom four-plex Yosemite villas were designed with families and parties of up to 6 people in mind.

Every Villa features an entry foyer, private bathroom with divided vanity and shower areas, a master bedroom that includes a king bed, large sitting area with a queen sofa bed and cast iron gas fireplace, and an expansive private deck with forest and sunset views.

The second bedroom in our Villas features either a second king bed or two twin beds. The bathrooms in Villas with two twin beds also have a tub.

Amenities include air conditioning, custom artwork and furnishings, Keurig coffee brewer, refrigerator, hypoallergenic feather pillows, electronic safe, an Alexa, Earth Therapy bath products, hair dryer, and iron.

Complimentary Wi-Fi is available in each Villa. But if you’re looking for a change of scenery, Wi-Fi is available in our lovely Computer Lounge, in the Main Lodge Guest Lounge, and in the common areas of the Guest Lodge and Reception buildings.

To encourage an authentic and rewarding mountain experience, we’re a little different from what you might expect from most Yosemite hotels. Rooms are supplied with games and radio streaming for entertainment, rather than televisions and other electronic devices.  You’ll find major sporting events on the big screen in our friendly Tavern, family-friendly activities hosted by our Recreation team, and games such as ping pong, foosball, bumper pool and more around the property.

While we are all pet lovers at Rush Creek, pets (other than service animals) are not allowed in or around guest rooms, in vehicles or on property. The lodge is not a self-contained property; it is set in the woods with no fences, which translates to high potential for conflicts with forest animals (bears, deer, squirrels, etc.) that are unsafe. Neighboring properties have experienced devastating consequences from pets chasing deer and other animals into the woods and onto the highway.

Pets are easily riled by forest animals, which creates disturbances for other guests. They also create unpleasant issues for guests with allergies.

Please be aware that pets are highly restricted within Yosemite National Park – the National Park Service only allows pets on fully paved trails and roads on the Yosemite Valley floor, on a leash 6 feet or shorter, and they cannot be left unattended. They are not allowed at any of the lodges in the Park, and they are not allowed in Yosemite’s High Country.

For all of these reasons, we cannot allow pets at the lodge. A $250 fee will be charged for violations. Please help us to enforce this policy by not bringing your pets with you on your visit.

We appreciate your understanding.
