Things To Do
Pinecrest Lake Loop (3.8 miles)
Whether you do the whole thing or an out and back, it's beautiful, easy, and you'll only need a pair of tennis shoes and a smile to get around!
Kennedy Meadows Resort & Packstation
Enjoy the views, take a stroll, get your next Christmas card pic for all we care! Just pack your camera and some warmer clothes!
Cleo's Bath
Definitely more of a scramble than a smooth flat hike around the lake... but let the Cortopassi Crew just say... well worth it if you've got two working knees, hiking boots, and a strong sense of adventure about ya!
Yosemite National Park
Whether you want to extend your CA Vacay or get here a little early, we are only a hop, skip and beautiful drive away from the iconic Yosemite Valley. It can absolutely be made a day trip from Pinecrest or Strawberry, or you can stay a few nights in the National Park itself! "The Highway 120 corridor is the most direct route to iconic Yosemite National Park from the San Francisco Bay Area and Northern California."
Steam Donkey Restaurant
We may be a little bias... but nothing beats a beer at the Steam Donk, sitting out on the back deck, playing cards, and maybe sharin' a bit of *ahem* sweet sweet satan's cabbage (responsibly of course!) Say hi to Bruce if he's there (he'll be in the Grateful Dead t-shirt at the bar) otherwise grab a bite to eat from the worlds best tiny kitchen and revel in being one with the locals for a few hours.
Enjoying all Tuolumne County has to offer!
Whether you're flying in from the East Coast, or driving up from the West, I promise we did not drag you out here just to celebrate our love and be done with it. Don't get us wrong, celebrating our story-book, millennial lovefest at the base of the mountain will no doubt be the highlight of your trip (we're fun like that) but we want you to know that there are plenty of things to do in your down time... while Joe and I get ready to blow our guest's minds by somehow NOT wearing rugby shorts or 2xl t shirts ;) Whether you want to explore the stunning Kennedy Meadows, walk the Pinecrest loop or scramble up to Cleo's Bath (for our more agile hikers but worth it!) we have outdoor activites galore. Whether you want to shop in downtown Sonora, cosplay as an Emily Henry Character in Twain Heart, or try beating my dad in a game of Pool at the Strawb Inn... well, we've got leisurely indoor activities for you too! No matter what you do or where you go, we just can't wait to party with you!
