Yosemite National Park

Gold Rush History on the Road to Yosemite

In a Gold Rush town just outside Yosemite National Park, The Groveland Hotel was built in 1849 and is one of California’s oldest hotels. Behind its original adobe walls, the 18-room boutique hotel blends historic character with modern comforts, including spacious suites, wraparound porches, and a tiered garden patio. The hotel’s welcoming tavern serves elevated comfort food highlighting California ingredients, while Yosemite’s iconic granite cliffs, waterfalls, and spectacular hiking trails are just a scenic drive away. After a day of adventure, return to the slower pace of one of California’s most storied mountain towns.
