A classic accommodation situated amidst the forest is the perfect highlight for a Yosemite travel.
The Evergreen Lodge in Yosemite serves as an active part of the scenic Yosemite backdrop ever since 1921. It did not start out as a place to house tourists; instead, it was initially built as a means to assist in the construction of the O’Shaunessey Dam. It also served as a restaurant, a post office, and a store. Even in the early years of the Evergreen Lodge in Yosemite, people gather for dances, ice cream, or simply meet at the watering hole. Now, it is still host to several people; international, guests, rock climbing enthusiasts, park rangers, and locals.
There are four cabin types in the Evergreen Lodge in Yosemite. While each is uniquely different from the other, all of them provide guests with a relaxing and casual atmosphere. The Traditional Cabins can house two-three individuals and are a good choice for couples or those who are traveling alone. The original traditional cabins have all been renovated in January 2006 and provide covered front porches and the least expensive rates. The Evergreen Lodge in Yosemite built new traditional cabins in 2004 which are popular for their private decks fronting nature.
