Yosemite National Park is a place that completely captures the notion of the great outdoors. Located in Northern California, it’s one of the country’s most popular parklands and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1984. Nature lovers from all over the world flock here to marvel at the massive granite formations, waterfalls, giant sequoias, and diverse wildlife. It’s not all about just sightseeing – there are plenty of things to do as well, such as hiking, rock climbing, camping, and enjoying the many shops and dining options within the park. It’s no wonder that over four million people come to visit each year! For the ultimate vacation in the great outdoors, you’ll want to top it off by staying in some of the best accommodations the area has to offer. So, pack your bags and read on to discover our list of the top luxury cabins in Yosemite, California.

What to look forward to:

  • Located within Yosemite National Park, Ansel Adams Gallery combines the park's lush surroundings with a breathtaking collection of photographer's Ansel Adams' original work, along with National Park history, books, maps, handicrafts, and Native American jewelry.
