Surrounded by a forest, Rush Creek Lodge at Yosemite features a heated outdoor pool, and children's playground. The accommodation features two hot tubs. Yosemite's Highway 120 West entrance is 0.8 km away. We like the lodge, the location in the forest, the faclities, the room, the wood dedign, the small attention to details, the food, the pool.

Located around 6.6 km from Palm Springs Visitor Center, the resort with free WiFi is also 6.6 km away from Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. The property is non-smoking and is located 2.7 km from O'Donnell Golf Course. Vista Mirage was absolutely wonderful. The apartments were clean, we had everything we needed and the team that worked at the resort were amazing. They went out of their way to ensure we had a marvellous break. Big thanks to David who couldn't have been more helpful from the first day when he ensured we could get into one of our rooms a bit early. He was exceptionally kind. The pool was beautiful, the gardens and communal areas clean and tidy, the laundry facilities super accessible and the location perfect for our elderly parents who weren't driving but found the walk to the local Ralph's and CVS really helpful. We were there for a family get together over the holidays and it was perfect. It definitely exceeded our expectations and we will go again.

The rooms are equipped with a TV and DVD player. Some units have a seating area to relax in after a busy day. You will find a coffee machine in the room. One of my favorite location to visit. Love the location and the closeness to Yosemite National Park. Oakhurst is a great little town to visit also.
