If you are looking for a comfortable, charming stay in the mountains look no further. This place is rustic, clean and the staff will make you feel right at home. It's not luxurious, but there are plenty of clean towels, in room coffee, refrigerator. The restaurant in the dining room serves EXCELLENT food. It is pricey, but well worth it!

The SSR is located north of Oakhurst, on the way to Yosemite. Initially I was concerned that it would be irritating to have to drive further for food after driving out of the park, but in fact we only went in to Oakhurst for gas. The Mountainhouse restaurant was a stone's throw from the ranch and was perfect for a good breakfast before a day of hiking. They were also very obliging in wrapping up sandwiches for us to take into the park. There are a few restaurant choices on the way in to Oakhurst. The ranch itself was very pretty, the pool would be lovely in the summer, unfortunately it wasn't warm enough the few days we stayed there. The room was basic but enough, the bed was super comfortable and there was a refrigerator. All the rooms open on to the verandah, which could potentially be quite noisy, however we stayed mid-week and so were practically the only ones there. I noticed ashtrays on the tables - you wouldn't want to be a non-smoker opening your patio doors to find someone smoking right next door. Bathroom was also basic, but great shower pressure (more like a jet wash!) and good bath towels. I was slightly concerned to see an adjoining door on the other side of the bathroom, but it didn't appear to be functional. All in all we had a good experience for a very decent price at the end of a holiday weekend.

We stayed there on the last night of our honeymoon before going home. I'm not sure if they want us to mention specifically what they did because it was SO above and beyond they prolly don't want half the country asking for it. Suffice to say that they were the perfect end to an aleady perfect wedding/honeymoon. I love the attention to detail at the property like fountains, wind chimes, swings, etc. You can tell it is well loved by the owner. It was very peaceful and relaxing. We will definitely be returning for anniversaries.

We had the most wonderful stay at the Sierra Sky Ranch. I felt like we were visiting family instead of staying in a hotel. It seemed like we were in a house. We stayed in "Sara's" room - which I think is the best room there. It is right outside the library room. It felt like we had a private suite.

The whole place was very inviting. Full of charm. The owner and staff (especially Judy) treated us like family. They truly take an interest in their quests. You can tell there is a strong since of pride about the whole place.

We stayed there over New Year's Eve and had dinner at the restaurant. The dinner was amazing quality and great service.

We enjoyed the stories of ghosts; although we did not experience anything spooky. Our room was supposed to be one of the most haunted. It did make for fun conversation though.

Normally when we travel we stay at 5 Star Resorts. The Sierra Sky Ranch was a refreshing change. We will definately return to the ranch in future trips. I only wish that we had stayed longer.
