Be aware this is not a typical bed and breakfast. We arrived to check in and no one was there. There is no cell phone service, since it is in the middle of nowhere. After waiting for half an hour, we drove into town to their "sister" bed and breakfast to see if we could find anything out. They called... More

We note the other reviews expressed concerns re booking, but we had no problem. We spoke to someone over the phone (ringing from the UK to Groveland) who was very helpful, and received an email confirmation within hours of making the booking. No credit card details were taken from us at this point. Onto the stay. It was great! The... More

We stayed at Big Creek Meadow Ranch while looking for somewhere to stay near Yosemite National Park. Everything else was booked out a month in advance. The other reviews mention problems booking, but we had no problems (we booked through the tripadvisor link to hotels.com), and also got a confirmation. The ranch itself is fairly small (four rooms), with a... More

Just a short review of my experience with this Ranch - I am planning a 2 night stay in Yosemite in May 2011 and after researching the internet for suitable accommodation I stumbled across Big Creek Meadow Ranch. Location-wise it was perfect and we were also sold on the idea of staying on a ranch! It seemed the only way... More

I ended up not staying here, but had to post a review since it was such a strange and disturbing experience. I hope to help others not have the same experience. I called several times to try to book a reservation with Big Creek Meadow Ranch. No response. I tried sending an email through their website with my reservation requests... More

Me and my friends planned a trip to yosemite national park a little bit too late and didn't have the chance to find any lodging inside the park. It was a little difficult for us to find a place to stay eventhough it was only one night but we found this place online. We did not think twice and made... More

We stopped there at the end of August after spending a day at Yosemite Ntl. Park - it was really really nice there! It was a bit noisy at night as the two dogs were chasing coyotes through the fields (or even a Mountain Lion as Carl, the owner, told us the next morning) Make sure to grab a beer... More

I stayed with my family ( 3 year old) and loved the place like anything!!!!!! It was a lovely, scenic and warm place where we felt like home even in a 1 night stay. We could not get 2 day stay because of the peak season, and hence we had to spend another night in it's sister property at Groveland... More

We used our GPS but it keep pointing us in the middle of nowhere. So it's better you go to their own website and write down the driving direction. The room was clean. The owner is very friendly and he would give you some information about the close by Groveland and recommend you the restaurant. The breakfast is with english... More

We had a very enjoyable stay at the Big Creek Meadow Ranch. Our host was very friendly and attentive, which was especially wonderful when we took a wrong turning and missed the place. Just a note of warning when looking for the place, do not go by house numbers! It is literally at the junction between Highway 120 and Smith... More
