Our spacious lofted Yosemite cabin has high 18ft ceilings which gives the sense of abundance and space. Relax and unwind on our large outdoor deck with cool valley breezes. Chill time to let go and recharge. We renovated our cabin fully in the summer of 2024, knocking out lots of closed in walls and gutting the kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms completely changing a dated 80’s style cabin into a modern contemporary home. The renovation took us 6 months in total to complete, from the time we knocked out our first wall til the last appliance was installed. This is our family’s cabin we love to spend quality time together exploring outside, catching bugs, cooking s’mores on our large deck and stargazing at night! We love to share it with other families.

Rich in 1850s Gold Rush history, the area was once a tent town of 6,000 gold miners.

Weekend Trip to River Bluff Retreat

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Magical Getaway! This campsite was everything we hoped for and more! It was peaceful, absolutely beautiful, and incredibly private—the perfect place to disconnect from the noise of everyday life and reconnect with nature. The entire experience felt enlightening and refreshing. The RV was extremely comfortable and homey, with cozy touches that made it feel like a true retreat. The kitchen was stocked with every utensil we could’ve possibly needed, which made cooking super easy and enjoyable. The views were breathtaking, especially during sunrise and sunset. One of the best parts was being able to hike along the river and explore nature without seeing another person—just pure tranquility and wide-open space. Other things we loved: ✅ Super clean and well-maintained space ✅ Thoughtful host who clearly care about the guest experience ✅ Perfect balance of comfort and “outdoor adventure” ✅ A hidden gem that feels private but still safe and welcoming If you’re looking for a beautiful, serene escape where you can relax, recharge, and enjoy nature in complete privacy, this is the place. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely be coming back! 🌲✨

My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location to Yosemite is super convenient and the facilities were better than we expected. Bathrooms/ showers/ common spaces were clean and it was nice to be able to walk next door to the hotel to have access to their pool and fast wifi. I will definitely be staying here again!!

From the beginning the host was really answering all my questions about the land… this place is a gem, we celebrate my friend birthday and we got an amazing time. We found everything we need there! The river was a plus. Definitely we would love to comeback.

This was a great stopover before entering Yosemite NP. It’s about a 40 min drive to the park entrance. This tent is within a campground and next to a hotel, so don’t expect to be solo. But because of this, there are plenty of amenities onsite including bathrooms and showers. Even though it was 106 when we arrived, you can walk down to the river to cool off. You can also use the pool at the lodge next door. There is AC in the tent, but you can’t run it for longer than 30 minutes before blowing the power box.

Love the amenities of the hotel restaurant and pool. However, it was advertised as having AC in the tent and upon check-in, however, when we called for help with turning it on, they said the AC did not work in any of the Jute Tents.

Great glamping spot! Everything was clean and had great vibes. It was a relaxing place to stay after long days in the park. It was also nice staying next door to Cedar Lodge and having perks like their restaurants and pool. WiFi worked great as well and everyone was friendly!

Campgrounds were a close drive to the entrance of Yosemite and the tent we rented was set up nicely. Had a great experience at Indian Flats and would recommend it. We will definitely come again.

A perfect glamping experience with a cozy bed, hot showers, clean bathrooms, a washing station, and a fire pit. Watched a stunning sunset over the lake and warmed up by the fire at night. The staff was lovely and so close to Yosemite!
