"The Perfect Place to Relax"
The perfect place to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. After a day of biking and hiking we enjoyed coming back to rest (and soak) and sleep on that cloud-like bed just to wake up refreshed to go hiking again the next day.

"A Peice of Romantic Heaven"
We really appreciated the soft cushiness of this amazing room after our wilderness rafting trip down the Tuolumne. The dinner was a "10". This is a piece of romantic heaven. Thanks for the personal touches. We'll be back!

"What A Delightful Place! "
What a delightful place! Loved the bears. Everything was comfortable, clean, and perfect environment - all the "extras" put such a "special touch" to the ambiance (the special soaps, toiletries, water bottles, even the rubber ducky.) The food was delicious and the service pleasant and friendly - thanks!

"A Wonderful Stay"
My husband and I, plus our 2 big dogs, had a wonderful stay at the Groveland Hotel. Our hosts Peggy & Grover and their staff took great care of us, even our dogs!
