Yosemite is one of the most magical places in the world. If you have time, definitely check out Yosemite Valley, drive up to Glacier Point, visit the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias, or take a hike in Tuolumne Meadows. Please note that Yosemite National Park is now requiring day-use reservations. See more information here: https://www.nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/reservations.htm
Rainbow Pool is a set of natural swimming holes along the south fork of the Tuolumne River and just 1 mile away from the lodge. We plan on hanging out here Sunday morning / early afternoon to cool off!
Groveland is an old Gold Rush town with a cute downtown. It also houses the historical Iron Door Saloon, the oldest continuously operating saloon in all of California.
