Narrow Gauge Inn

A hot breakfast includes more than a toaster.

We got the LivingSocial deal, so the price was 50% off.  So, that obviously makes things a better value for me.  They ended up screwing up my reservation dates, and I didn't find out until they called to ask me why I wasn't showing up in Feb.  I realized they made an error, and I also made a mistake by not confirming the confirmation email.  We were able to work something out, and they got me my original reservation dates.  However, they had to UPGRADE me to a really nice room.  And boy, what a nice room it was.

Our room is really nice.  It sits on the corner, and there are NO adjoining rooms.  So, it's quiet.  I can't say if the walls are thin or not.  The views are not so great, but the area is pretty.  The supposed stream they have that runs by the property is more like a trickle.  It's most definitely not what one would imagine.  However, the lodge is cute, and I mostly enjoyed our stay here.  The front desk people are really pleasant.  Since the restaurant was closed, they provided in suite "breakfast" baskets that consisted of fruit, muffins, juice, granola bars, and crackers.  Definitely not a hearty or good breakfast, but it makes for good snacking along hiking trails.  

The surrounding areas are really nice.  I took many evening walks, and I found lots of nice picture oppty's.  With the sun setting, and the lighting they have around the place, the place feels super cozy.  It made me pine for mountain living.  Anyways, your mileage may vary.  

Wifi reception is kinda spotty if you don't have a laptop with decent wifi reception.  Tablets and smartphones can be problematic depending on your room.

Anyways, I'm a fan of the place.

It has been awhile since we have been here but I do remember it is a very charming place but on the small side.  It is always a joy to visit he Yosemite National Park and the surrounding areas. The Narrow Gauge Inn is a welcome dinner stop with excellent food.
