9.4/10 Exceptional! (710 reviews)
The property is great if you’re looking for something that is quite American, the airstream vans offer something that is not seen elsewhere. With that said, the vans are starting to get tired and a little worn. The small minibar fridge is not helpful in preserving fresh food, everything ended up frozen or couldn’t fit as the fridge was very small. The vans themselves could have done with a wash down on the outside too. Despite these few detractors, the service from the staff is very friendly and helpful, we ate dinner in the main block one of the nights and were impressed with the fact everything, while very simple food, was cooked freshly and tasted very nice. Being able to cook on the open fire was great and we discovered that the staff can arrange for a small induction stove to be placed in the van to help with boiling pasta or the like. The setting is wonderful with wildlife everywhere. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place while visiting Yosemite.
