Gartensuite @ Sierra Mountain Lodge - Yosemite

We are a family owned and operated lodge. We opened the Sierra Mountain Lodge in May of 2005 as a Bed and Breakfast. At the time we had two young children and our goal was to be able to raise them, teach them a work ethic and make a living. For 10 years we did just that, opening our home up to travelers from around the world. We met so many amazing people and enjoyed every minute.

As with life, things change, the park became more and more popular. It became advisable for our guests to enter the park earlier in the morning to avoid traffic. After a couple years of this trend we found more and more of our guests were skipping breakfast to get an early start. So as with any business we evolved to meet our clients needs.

In 2013 we ended our breakfast service and lowered our rates. This allowed our guests to get up and out on their schedule and to choose breakfast from one of many great local eateries. The breakfast lobby became the Sierra Suite a truly unique space. We then added several private and community BBQ grilling stations around the lodge. These have become a guest favorite. After an amazing day in Yosemite, guests can come home, relax & grill under the stars.

We are still here enjoying our lives in the Sierra’s, we live an an adjacent acre, we give our guests total privacy but are always available to attend to any guests needs 🙂

Your hosts, John, Brenda, Ryan & Amelia Eppler.
