Hounds Tooth Inn Yosemite Lodging

Great Place to stay with two other couples.

We spent a weekend at The Houndstootn Inn and enjoyed every moment. The staff was friwndly and the place was ultra-clean. A modest breakfast was available every morning and wine was avainable in the evening. Close to Yosemite, Mariposa and a few small towns here and there for anything you may want to do.

This was our third stay. We always enjoy staying here, nice and quiet and relaxing. We have stayed in two different rooms, both very comfortable and clean. Ownership turned over this time and we were treated exceptional. Great breakfast. Highly recommended.

I stayed in the Quilt Room for three nights while attending a conference at the Tenaya Lodge and doing some hiking. I won't bury the lede here, this hotel was spotless. I'm a bit of a neat freak and have been known to clean hotel rooms upon arival. No need to here. My room was positively imaculate. It put me instantly at ease in my room and certainly made me far more well-disposed towards the staff. This is particularly important as I had colleagues staying at other nearby hotels and B&Bs of the same price point who described their rooms as "funky" and "dingy." The grounds, though a work in progress, were lovely with many great spots for a little tete at tete. The room was small - as expected since it was the cheapest - but well appointed with two chairs, TV, mini fridge, comfy bed, etc. Wish there had been a desk in place of so many chairs, but then since the WiFi wasn't working, I'm not sure that turned out to be such a big deal. It was a real treat and surprise to find that I had a private bathroom. I wasn't expecting that. The staff were very warm, helpful, and friendly and seemed to genuinely enjoy spending time with their guests. I can't rate the food because I ate at the conference instead of at the B&B.

Besides the rain the trip was great. Located in a great spot. Lots to do in the area. Staff was very nice rooms were clean and good size. Would go again.

It was a welcome relief to stay here after our log cabin at Yosemite at the Falls. We have been driving around California now for 23 days and this is the best place we have stayed. Nice touch of wine in evening and dvds to rent for only 1$. Good breakfast.. Good restaurants nearby. Manager very helpful. Mr & Mrs from England.

My husband and I stayed here the first time after our wedding at the recommendation of a friend. We instantly fell in love. The inn itself is beautiful from the moment you drive down the winding driveway. The grounds are kept pristine and lovely. The room was beautiful and spacious and quite a deal at the price we paid. The second time we stayed, we brought our baby with us. There were no issues with having him a long and again, the room we stayed in was clean, beautiful, and spacious. My husbands family lives in the area and we'd always be welcome to stay at their house for free, but you can be sure that we would much rather stay at the Hounds Tooth Inn. The prices are great and competitive with the other hotels in the area. Actually, for the size of the rooms, the coziness of the inn and the quiet solitude of the location, it's a steal! I have every intention of making this place our go to hotel whenever we're in the area. LOVE IT!

The room was beautiful, the property was well maintained and lovely, and our stay was relaxing. The only down checks on this lovely location were a non functional DVD player and a serviceable but lackluster breakfast.

This is a lovely, well maintained (indoors and out) place to rest your head after a couple days in Yosemite. I'm only sorry that we didn't have time to spend just lounging outside on the patio. The hosts are very pleasant and welcoming. I was surprised at the value - maybe we caught the place during an off season but our room was very affordable for something so nice and close to the park. Many places to eat are just a quick drive away. I would have liked to see more homemade options for breakfast, instead of pre-packed goods - but I have food allergies and could only have the scrambled eggs when it came down to it, anyway. I would definitely stay here again.

I have stayed in the Hounds Tooth Room for 1 night and second night I have stayed in Victorian Tower and 3rd night i stayed in Garden Inn room.. all those rooms are really nice comfortable beds nice and clean awesome room.. The breakfast was good not that bad.. Service is also good.. If we ran out something you just have to tell the manager he makes you right away in few miniute.. So service is also nice...Everything is so nice and beautiful.We love that place..

Stayed for one night in the Garden Inn room. Bed was confortable and room clean. They offered complimentry glass of wine and had a wine bar. Breakfast was continental style. They didn't keep up with the food service, the scrambled eggs ran out and so did the coffee. Host was not very friendly. Maybe that is just the way B&B's host are in CA.

Beautiful estate, quiet surrounding. Not far from Yosimete NP. Clean room and good bed. Outstanding breakfast en delicious glass of wine in the afternoon. Huub Claessen, Zwolle (The Netherlands)

We stayed one night at Hounds Tooth Inn and everything has gone very weell. The owner was a kind person, he suggested placed to have dinner and he offered a couple of wine after our fantantis day in Yosemite Park. The roon was big and clean. And the breakfast was ok, you have milk, coffe, yogurt, cerals, bread. The localitation is good too. Is near the exit of Yosemite Park, from Secuoyas. I recomend anyone to book hear!! See you!!!

We wanted a nice weekend getaway to the area, so went online and found The Hounds Tooth. The room pricing was very reasonable, so to be honest we were expecting a budget-type place and so-so accomodations. We ended up being very pleasantly surprised as the grounds and room were neat and clean, and despite being right off the highway, the Inn's location allows it to remain surprisingly quiet. The breakfast was more a continental style than that of a true B&B, but was still good. We definitely plan to make Hounds Tooth a regular getaway spot. We have not found comparable accomodations for the great price it offers.

Clean and comfy. Good place to visit nature around incl Yosemite NP (near South gate). Breakfast is good. No dining service. Internet ok. They have a lot of film DVDs for free access and players in rooms.

We were on ly there for one night but we loved the B&B. The location is great for a day in Yosemite. The buffet breakfast was nice...egg casserole, fresh fruit, cereal, danish, muffins. The only dish that was homemade was the eggs. All of the other offerings were store bought but were fresh. Most B&B's that we stay in, all of the food is prepared onsite. This was not a negative, just an observation.

We had such a great time at the Hounds Tooth Inn! The couple who organise it all are very kind and the cleaning-team is perfect! The breakfast is great and the complementary wine tastes great!!! If we ever come back to enjoy Yosemite(what I hope)we sure book the very nice Patio Room!

Lovely place to stay very relaxing. Rooms were very clean and spacious. Breakfast was good and plentiful. Second stop on our road trip. Ate in a lovely restaurant just up the road ( sorry can't remember the name) steak and baked potatoes very good xx

Ownership was in transition and it showed. Many outside plants were dead or dying due to lack of water and care recently. Lower undeveloped grounds were distracting due to lack of greenery but lots and lots of dirt areas. Rooms were clean but decor was very dated and in need of freshening. Breakfast was more of a buffet/serve yourself with minimal choices. Too many sugar and high carb products for our taste, but quantities of the choices was no concern.

Room was very clean and the decoration was really charming. Bathroom was also very nice and clean (with hair dryer). Breakfast was delicious. Hosts were very nice. In summary : perfect

Very comfortable room and good breakfast. Would recommend.

Location, staff and food was amazing, a little higher the price, but it's definitely worth it!

Overall our stay at HTI must be classified as slightly above average. Rooms are large and clean and decorated well. Service was outstanding ... with very personable and accommodating staff/owners. Breakfast was more like a motel/breakfast package than most B&Bs that we have stayed at. Cost seemed a little high for location, but is only a few miles from Yosemite's south entrance. If you are staying during winter/snow/ice season, be prepared for a very steep and long driveway experience.

Lovely hotel, fantastic room and ideal location. Excellent value. The only minor point is that seating for breakfast is limited and the breakfast slightly basic. Apart from that, a lovely stay. Would thouroughly recommend!

It was a delightful place to say, comfy and peaceful. Nearby Oakhurst had plenty of good places to eat; enjoyed particularly El Cid and Crab Cakes. Chose this guesthouse because of Yosemite but found it was a lot further away than I thought. Athough we enjoyed our stay here, next time would find somewhere closer. Nearby Bass Lake was pleasant too.

We stayed for just 2 nights but wish I could have stayed a week. Lovely place. Very clean, modern but warm atmosphere. Even books and movies available to watch but who wants to with Yosemite just 30 minutes away. Also close to Oakhurst so easy to run to town for an errand. I would (and wish I could) go back in a heartbeat). Sincerely, An Oregon Traveler

Our whole family really enjoyed our experience at Hounds Tooth Inn. We stayed at beautiful, comfortable room, that really made us feel at home, even when we were almost 3000, miles away! The scenary was very pretty as well!

Excellent place to relax for an evening after enjoying Yosemite.

This Bed and Breakfast was incredible. The owners were very helpful and friendly. We would stay there again if we were visiting the area. The Hound's Tooth is about a 1 hour drive south of the Yosemite Valley. We only stayed one night and left early in the morning so I don't know about their breakfast.

The place is very nice and the hotel seems a small castle. The room was larger than expected and had all necessary confort. I wanted to stay one noght longer, but it was not possible because all rooms were booked. Wonderful!

We cannot praise this lovely b & b enough. We were a party of seven, in four rooms, and the owner went out of his way to make our stay memorable. The rooms are beautifully furnished and spotless, the breakfast was varied and plentiful. There are no facilities on site for an evening meal, and the establishment is a little way out of the town, so on the first night of our stay we had pizza delivered and ate at one of the tables in the garden, the second night we bought salads etc back from a supermarket, all with the owner's blessing. We spent eight nights touring round California and all of the hotels were good but this one exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much.

The Inn is in a great location, a few miles from the entrance to Yosemite. Our room was very clean and spacious, graciously furnished. The large bathroom with all amenities, nice shower. The breakfast was just delicious, large choise of everything. We also enjoyed a nice glass of wine sitting on the porch in the evening, playing with 2 adorable cats. Bill and Anna are very nice and helpfull. Our stay was fantastic!! Barb & Paul

We spent a lovely three nights at the Hounds Tooth Inn for our recent visit to Yosemite. Bill and his wife were friendly, and very attentive to their guests' needs. The Inn was relaxing, comfortable and a great place to rejuvenate at the end of long days of hiking and seeing the beautiful Yosemite sights. The inn's grounds are lovely, and we enjoyed having breakfast and a glass of wine in the evening in the beautiful gazebo behind the inn. The breakfast was tasty and the dining room pleasant and intimate. My only small suggestion would be that the coffee was rather weak and flavorless. Other than that, our stay was perfect!

Beautiful house set in lovely quiet surroundings only 12 miles to the entrance to Yosemite NP. We stayed in a standard room which was large & spotlessly clean. For breakfast there is fresh fruit salad, a variety of breads & bagels & a hot egg dish. There is also a selection of cereals, juice & teas & coffee. There is tea & coffee or wine available in the evening when you can sit outside & enjoy the peace & quiet. We didn't see a great deal of the owners apart from at check-in or at breakfast if something needed replenishing. It did feel a bit impersonal & more like a small hotel than the B&Bs that we're used to. If ever in the area again though we would stay here.

Stay was very warm and I would recommend to stop by for my friends.

The rating for dining is somehow odd since the Hounds Tooth Inn does not provide such a service. since a rating must be given in order to complete the review it seemed to very unfair to rate lower. Our grading takes into consideration that the Hounds Tooth Inn provided a leaflet showing each restaurant including rating in Oakhurst. Unfortunately we stayed only one night at the Hounds Tooth Inn. We definitly plan to go back. During our trip through California we stayed at 12 different hotels and we always had booked three rooms (big family with kids and jungsters). We all agreed that the Hounds Tooth Inn clearly outperformed all the other hotels including some very expensive ones!

I stayed in the Birdhouse room. It was clean, charming and cozy and most importantly the bedding was outstanding! It was a quiet and delightful place to stay. Owners were friendly and I enjoyed the cats around the property. My only complaint was that the morning coffee was too weak for me and the Toliet paper was too rough and thin. I would suggest switching to Charmin or something softer with substance. Otherwise, it was an excellent experience. I would definitely come back, only I would bring my own TP.

Very comfortable rooms, friendly staff and great location. Would stay again.

A bit of a hike from Yosemite Valley, but worth the drive. Beautiful place.

Very relaxing stay in an ideal location to visit Yosemite. Rooms very comfortable and clean. Hosta were very friendly and liked the touch of free wine in the afternoon. Quiet location and able to sit out in the garden. very good breakfast.

Really a nice place to be. We were late on arrival, being in Yosemite couldn't call so the owners placed the keys in the Lobby for us. Perfect service! We'll come back for sure.

My husband and I needed quiet time together without the 4 kids and we have that time at the Hounds Tooth Inn. The room was great, very clean and wonderfully scented. Breakfast was yummy... all good. We went horseback riding, took in a movie, hiked and went out to dinner. We reconnected.. thanks for making it special... B&E

The Hounds Tooth Inn has great rooms..larger than I expected. The common areas are limited so little interaction with other guests.

What wonderful accommodations to accent our trip to Yosemite! The location is perfect, just a few miles from the park. Lots of restaurants close by, and easy access to groceries and supplies. Best of all, awesome, well-kept property with very friendly owners (spouses) that run a great show with friendliness, easy going natures, and humor. Breakfast quiche every morning is fabulous & homemade. Wine tastings at night are complimentary with your stay. Rates are very reasonable for everything you get when you stay here. Quiet, pretty rooms, very clean and nice bathrooms. Referring friends & family and will definitely go back next time we're in Yosemite!

I would recommend this B&B to anyone visiting Yosemite National Park. The location is excellant, rooms are very clean and the evening wine a nice touch.

This place has all of the flexibility a hotel offers while retaining all of the advantages of a B&B...

It was a great place to stay, a little far away from where we were anticipating, but still a great location. we really enjoyed the two days that we stayed there.

Great room, great property, great hosts, great breakfast. My only complaint would be to have larger TVs.

We stayed for one night and we liked it very much. Clean and cosy room and the owners were very kind.

The Hounds Tooth is a very enjoyable inn. We found it to be close enough to the south entrance to Yosemite National Park to use as a home base. Oakhurst offers more dining options and better gas prices than the park.

Our stay at Hounds Tooth Inn exceeded all our expectations. After drive from like Tahoe and 7 mile hike we arrived to Heaven.. Hospitality, room decoration and every detail were outstanding. Breakfast was far exceeding our expectations. Also, afternoon glass of wine for relaxation after a day spent in Yosemite. . Only coffee could be stronger, but since we are from Europe, you'll understand that we make it very strong. Thank you. Sincere Jelena and Zelimir Milosavljevic (Belgrade, Serbia)

We stayed in the nice Garden view Room. Huge jacuzzi in the bedroom. Superior service and kindness. We recommend it.

We chose this B & B because it was so close o Yosemite. We were pleasantly surprised by how nice the rooms and grounds were. The room was much larger than it appeared in the photos, which never happens. Breakfast in the dining room was a buffet affair and the food was good. I believe there was a two hour window for breakfast and coffee available earlier. The location is on a busy highway but the Inn is a few feet from the road so we had no road noise. Would definitely go back, a great value.

Lovely! Beautiful setting, nicely appointed rooms and accommodating hosts. I down rated the "cleanliness" because we found someone else's clothes left in one of the drawers and the refrigerator appeared to be defrosting with a towel to catch drips.

I had a great experience at Hounds Tooth Inn. The room was great, the environment was calm and breakfast was amazing. I will definitely be staying here again in the future and I highly recommend it.

This was a beautiful place to stay after going through Yosemite. While we did not have breakfast, as we had to leave early in themorning, the rest of the stay was great. The room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable.

this hotel is really other than the rest. you definitely should have been there. amazing and cozy rooms, great atmosphere, friendly people, delicious breakfast.

Got tired of the drive to the park after three days, but that was the only negative thing we could think of.

the host is very kindly and the room is cozy,clean,comfortable. I'll return here next time.

We stayed at the summer house. It was very clean and private. The jacuzzi bath tub was wonderful. The owners were warm and friendly. I would stay here again. The summer house is like one very large room and has a single bed in addition to a large double bed.

The place is absolutely great, the owners are helpful and really nice at night you have wine up to 9:30PM the rooms are really are clean and really nice and cozy! I really enjoyed my time there! Do not hesitate to book a room. Good value for the price! Regine

Nice room well decorated. Great breakfast Wine offered in the afternoon

We didn't spend a lot of time at the Hounds Tooth Inn as we were really there for Yosemite, but it's a charming place to stay. The breakfast was well balanced with options for every taste. Especially grateful for the crustless quiches.

We stayed here for 4 nights recently and I don't think we could have found better accommodation within 100 miles. The owners must put in a considerable amount of work as it is no fluke that this level of service can be achieved and maintained for so long. Everything about this place is 1st class and then the wine in the evening a perfect way to round off the evening. Thank you very much for re-introducing our taste buds to good Red Wine. Rick & Jane UK

Lovely accommodations - very clean and comfortable room. Quiet. Host was most helpful in recommending good places to eat dinner. Breakfast was plentiful and good. Would definitely stay there again if we ever get back to that area.

We expected a much warmer welcome from a family place, we thought service was cold and uninterested (when we came down for breakfast, no hello, they were just sitting there). However, there is a selection of free wine for the evening and a big, pretty garden to enjoy a glass. They also have cute cats. :) All in all this is a good place, they just should be a bit more welcoming.

What a marvelous jewel of a bed and breakfast. Such a comfortable bed in a very restful, attractive room. Breakfast was absolutely delicious. Whenever I am in the area again, I am certain to book another room at the Hounds Tooth Inn. Jackie

Hounds Tooth B&B is quaint, quiet and a wonderful stay. The rooms are absolutely warm, welcoming, beautiful, cozy and clean. Totally beats staying at a regular hotel! It feels luxurious in a humble way and the Innkeepers are so very helpful and friendly. The Dining area has many windows-which I love, has a nice view and the wine hours is such a treat. Thank You for a wonderful stay!

We were really impressed. It was a last minute thing and we could only stay 1 night, but wished we could have stayed longer. What a pleasant surprise to find that there are still places that know the meaning of REAL customer service with a smile. The room was pretty and absolutely immaculate. First place I've ever been that I wasn't afraid to walk on the carpets barefoot. We had a little patio area and the grounds were lovely. Wished we'd had time to explore a little more. The breakfast that was included was fantastic. We expected the standard "continental" type breakfast, but got a wonderful full breakfast with lots of delicious choices in delightfully cozy dining room. It was so homey and comfortable. We go to Bass Lake every year and we will definitely book here longer next year. Loved all the cute kitties too! A truly outstanding find and a little gem in Oakhurst.

U will not find a better b & b, motor inn or hotel experience in the Oakhurst area. Thanks for the wine samples. Best sleep. U can hear the crickets, frogs at night. Variety of cafes, Italian, Chinese, franchise restaurants 10 minute drive down the street in central Oakhurst.

Good location near Yosemite. The room was clean, comfortable and quiet. If you are looking for a typical bed and breakfast experience this would not be it. The only interaction with the innkeeper was at check in. There was no information in the room regarding local restaurants, Internet access, churches, etc. I did receive a cryptic restaurant list at check in with the innkeeper's ratings. The breakfast was a serve-yourself buffet consisting of fruit, various breads, cold cereals and an egg quiche. It was exactly the same all three mornings. At Hounds Tooth Inn we missed the B&B community atmosphere and conversation with the guests and innkeepers. Though our stay was trouble free, it was kind of like staying at a really nice Comfort Inn.

The owners and the staff were very helpful. The rooms were spacious and very clean. My kids enjoys spending time outdoors. Would definitely recommend the B&B to anyone, even if you have kids.

Very nice plase, very good standing. We just would have preferred to meet and talk with innkeepers at breakfast cause BB are a way to share experiences and informations.

The property and rooms are clean, inviting, and have a caring touch. The afternoon wine service and morning breakfast were lovely. The management is very friendly. There is also a movie and book lending library.

This is a great base to visit Yosemite and for a chillout Bass Lake is just down the road.

Wonderful hotel - excellent location for visits to Yosemite and Bass Lake. Beautiful room, spotlessly clean. Amazing breakfast - especially the home-cooked hot dishes! Would recommend to anyone!

Great and relaxed place to explore Yosemite. Nice, clean rooms and very good breakfast. Like to come back

Very nice luxury B&B. We chose this accomodation as we couldn't get into the Lodge in the Park. It is quite a drive to Yosemite- about an hour- however it was lovely to come back to a lovely bed and a glass of wine. Breakfast was also excellent and plenty of choice. I would definitely recommend this place.

The stay at Hounds Tooth Inn was very pleasant and the owners are very friendly and did everything to make you feel at home. We spent 3 nights for visiting Yosemite and although Yosemite is aprox. 1.20 Hr drive from The Hounds Tooth Inn its definitely worth the effort. The served breakfast as well as the complemantary afternoon wines were excellent!

We stayed in HoundsTooth for one night, but I wish I could have stayed more. The room, location and service was excellent. We will definitely be back to stay more.

The host was most gracious, the room was large and comfortable. We stayed two nights and were very pleased to talk with other guests. The inn was immaculate and pleasant.

Stayed 3 places near Yosemite and this was the BEST! Would DEFINITELY stay again when I re-visit Yosemite.

I was so happy to find this place after balking at the high summer rates at the local chain hotels. My room was large and clean and I couldn't hear other guests during the two nights I was there. The owners were very nice and were able to answer our questions about the area. They also provide a nice breakfast in the morning and wine in the afternoons and evenings.

We really liked the fact that it was quiet and restful. It was a nice place to come back to and spend time together after a long day. It was a very nice place for a honeymoon.

Nice B&B. We stayed one night after a long camping trip in Yosemite.

Peaceful, luxurious accomodation in a stylish inn.. We loved it and would like to teturn very soon. Really good base for visiting Yesemite and the spas are great after a day out.

We really enjoyed staying at the Hounds Tooth Inn, and have stayed at many other B&Bs over the years. Our only complaint is a long drive to/into Yosemite (hour and a half each way). We drove to Yosemite four days from the Inn, and it gets to be a long "commute". But then, most outside-the-park lodging has the same problem. A great inn, all that a B&B should be.

A pleasurable beginning each morning and a satisfying close each evening. We enjoyed our stay at Hounds Tooth Inn and would recommend it to others. Mr. And Mrs. Williams were responsive hosts. Thank you.

We needed a spot to recuperate from hiking and crowds in Yosemite, and Hounds Tooth was perfect: friendly proprietor, great room, quiet, peaceful, pretty setting.

We have stayed at the HoundsTooth Inn 2 times & have enjoyed both stays. Very beautiful setting not far from Yosemite. The breakfast is very filling especially the coffee cakes that are provided. The room decor is top notch making the peaceful getaway wonderful. Soaking in the private bath with your loved one while sipping champagne was our highlight.

This was our first stay att he Hounds Tooth Inn. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was delicious! We will definitely come back in the future.

It's a shame we couldn't enjoy the place a bit more as we spent all our time at the Yosemite National Park. The place was such a comfort to arrive to. It was spacious and cosy. The room even had it's own fridge! We managed only to taste breakfast once and it was delicious. We would come back and recommend this place to anyone!

This was out third trip to Yosemite where we stayed in Oakhurst and the Hounds Tooth has been the best place we have stayed. This time the pictures on the website matched what we found when we arrived. The rooms were very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was wonderful and the location was convenient to Yosemite. We had a wonderful stay and will come back if we ever head that way again.

Outstanding!!!!!!!!!! Everything was excellent. What a surprise!!!!! If you have a chance by all means go!!!!

The room and the property in general were very clean and beautiful. I was impressed with the size of the room. The facility is very quiet and peaceful at night - one can definitely relax here. The breakfast was served buffet style. Other B&B's that I have recently stayed at serve you. There was also zero communication between the Inn Keepers and myself. If one wants to keep to themselves - this is great. However, I wanted a restaurant recommendation and they were no where to be found. In all fairness though, I checked in early - and they accomodated me, and then I left for the day, not returning until 7pm. My wife and I then freshened up and went out for a few hours. All in all I would recommend this B&B. The prices seemed fair and the setting and accommodations were beautiful.

We booked a room for a 3 day get away to Yosemite, Little did we know that this B&B would be a Romantic as all get out, We highly recommend for Couples looking for Romance, the Jacuzzi in the room was perfect to relax in after a day Hiking Yosemite, cant wait to come back, the Innkeeper Bill is a perfect host

We stay here at least once a year. The hosts are always so friendly and accommodating. The breakfasts quiches are great. Wonderful quiet and peaceful get away!

We enjoyed our two night stay at Houndstooth Inn. We stayed there just a few weeks prior to Memorial Day, so the weekday crowds in and around Yosemite had not yet materialized. Rooms are spacious, well-appointed, clean and very comfortable. The property grounds looked to be just awakening from a winter thaw. Lots of acreage and potential, but not much has developed yet. Adding some flowering plants and refining the walkway down to the small creek would add immesaureably to the property's ambiance. The only disappointment was breakfast. The Inn seemed to be going through the motions on this one. Quiche each morning. Cold cereal. Not very inventive. With a little effort, this could become a 'must-stop' for a hearty morning breakfast prior to hiking in Yosemite. Believe we met one of the Innkeepers; very friendly. Breakfast was, I believe attended to by the other Innkeeper; though not nearly as friendly. All in all, needs a little work on the dining offerings. We'll be back in a few months and see if anything's changed.

We wanted to get away for a night for our 5 year anniversary. I decided a bed & breakfast near by would be perfect. We arrived to a fantastic welcome from the staff, a clean room, and a sheet with places to have dinner in the area. We had a wonderful time and I would absolutely recommend staying here. I couldn't be happier with my stay and will be returning.

We stayed at the Hounds Tooth Inn while visiting Yosemite and it was very nice. Convenient location, comfortable room, good breafast. We'd definitely stay here again.

Nous avons été agréablement surpris à notre arrivée au Hounds Tooth Inn. Accueil sympa, chambre nickel, bibliothèque et dvdthèque à disposition, et l'un des meilleurs petits-déjeuners de notre périple aux Etats-Unis !

My lady and I were taking our 1st Yosemite trip of our lives. When looking up places to stay, as a broke teacher, I cant front, I look at prices 1st. I don't ever wanna stay in a roach motel, but many times I need a deal! The Hounds Tooth to me represents both quality and practicality (for a brothas wallet!), and it is one of the best purchases I have made. I stayed in the Robray room which, for the price, EXCEEDED my expectations, and I challenge anyone to find a hotel, no, COTTAGE, near ANY popular tourist attraction for the price and serenity you are greeted with at The Hounds Tooth. It is only 20 min. from the main entrance to Yosemite, and there are good places to eat within a mile or 2, including Crab Cakes and The Steakhouse. The owners Bill and Anna were very friendly, and the environment was calm and inviting. A light breakfast of fruit, muffins/cakes, cereal, and toast-type eats til 10 every morning is nice, and although i'm not a wine drinker, you can find yourself at the FREE wine bar til 9pm. So...If you are going to Yosemite and you want to stay in comfort for a VERY reasonable price...DO NOT look further than The Hounds Tooth Inn!!! (especially if you are with a special someone...)

Enjoyed the pleasant and well-kept room we were in for 3 nights. Owners were very nice and easy to work with. Food was decent, nothing to rave about. My wife, an English major, was unhappy that they did not put an apostrophe in "Hound's" :-)

Have been coming to the Hounds Tooth for a few years now. The rooms are very nice and the staff is great. I have never ad a bad stay or reason to not come back. Bill the owner is always on site in case you need anything. Once I had to check out for an emergency at about 0100 hrs. Bill met me at the check n desk. Later I got a gift certificate in he mail or a nights stay. That right there shows how nice the staff is. This s my first choice to stay n the mountains. The Hounds Tooth Room is my favorite. Up stairs with the hot tub near the window. Relax and have a great view!

LOVED our stay at the Hounds Tooth in February...10 minute drive to Bass Lake! Amazing breakfast with eggs, fruit, delicious breads, juice coffee and more. Hospitality and friendliness of owners was especially appreciated! Cleanliness at the top of their list for sure! We stayed in the spacious cottage with large spa. Loved the windows all around bringing lots of light into the cottage during the day. We'll be back for sure!

Simply delightful. What a remarkable value for a stay on a beautiful property, with delicious breakfasts and afternoon wine bar. The swift drive to Yosemite and several high quality restaurants is another plus. The owners are very kind and helpful too.

The B&B met my expectations completely, especially the good breakfast and the additional afternoon/evening service with wine bar have been very good. The location a bit off the main Oakhurst center is great and a good starting point to Yosemite.

The hosts are extremely friendly and helpful, but not at all intrusive like you will find at many B&B's. They leave you alone unless you ask for assistance. The rooms are very nice. Most, if not all, have fireplaces. The only drawback to the rooms is that the bathrooms have no counter space - just a free standing sink. But in a way that adds to the charm.

The Hounds Tooth Inn was fantastic! The town is quaint, and the inn itself is adorable. The room we were upgraded to was magnificent, and the innkeeper was so kind. I have nothing bad to say - this place was great!

The owners of the Hounds Tooth Inn were wonderful people. They were knowledgeable and kind. We only wish we could have stayed more than one night. The grounds were fantastic and the rooms were warm and inviting. We will stay there again whenever we head back to Yosemite. It was a fabulous experience.

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful with tips on restaurants, directions, weather, and activities. I loved that it felt homely which is unlike a large hotel. I also loved seeing the kitties on the property. It reminded me of my own home. Very pleasant stay. Would highly recommend this inn.

Stayed in the Cottage Rose which is larger than I expected from the picture. Comfortable and very clean. Hosts of the inn were very nice, they also have cute and friendly cats. The property is beautiful and a peaceful place to walk around. Breakfast is very good with lots of variety. Location is a close enough 15 min drive into the south end of Yosemite. Surrounded by plenty of restaurants.

Came to CA for a wedding and stayed several days at the Inn. Would highly recommend - clean, comfortable rooms and quiet, private setting. Just as described on website. Breakfast was good - something for everyone. Great value for this price.

This is a wonderful spot to stop before entering Yosemite. The accommodations were wonderful. The hosts had good advice on local eateries. The serve yourself wine bar was astonishing. I highly recommend this cozy inn to anyone needing a good nights' rest.

I am very impressive with this Inn. This place looks small but it's very cute and beautiful. The owner is very good mind. It's Clean and Worth. If I have chance I may visit and stay here again.

Beautiful place and setting. Great food. Helpful but not obtrusive staff. Highly recommend.

We were staying at the Hounds Tooth in preference to staying in the Park. It was a good decision.

We chose the The Hounds Tooth Inn for it location in close proximity, as close as we could get, to Yosemite Valley. While still almost an hour away this is one of the first bed and breakfast locations near the park. Our room, the one pictured in many of their brochure photos, had a jacuzzi tub and fireplace which we took full advantage of. Both added great value to the room which in itself was comfortable and very clean. The bed itself was plush and quite a welcome site after hiking in the valley. A serve yourself breakfast of delicious quiche, toast, cereals, fruit and danish was plentiful and comfortable. The owner stayed out of the guests way and allowed them to enjoy and feel at home. While my girlfriend would have like more interaction from the owners, I was quite pleased to serve myself as much breakfast as I wanted and not have any service. Overall I would give this bed and breakfast good marks for appearance and service and recommend it as a quaint location for a base into Yosemite Valley. I believe next time however, I would look for something much closer or in the Valley as this is a long drive over winding mountainous roads for traveling to and from Yosemite. That should not diminish the Inn itself though as it stood up to it's billing as a comfortable place to stay and rest. Was it worth the price? I believe my girlfriend would say yes, as for me, I would say I suppose so. Enjoy! J. Mang

This accommodation is well located on the southern end of Yosemite National Park. The rooms were neat, tidy & clean & the breakfast was outstanding. The owner of the property was always helpful and went out of his way at all times, throughout the booking process he comminicated at all times and sent through a reminder 1 week prior to our arrival. I would definetaly stay here again.

Nice facility and very nice hosts. The room had a "funny" smell that went away once we opened the windows and aired out the room. Only other comment: Start breakfast (and coffee!!) earlier than 7. We wanted to get an early start into Yosemite and ended up going to breakfast at a place nearby.

Great place close to Bass Lake and Yosemite. Room was very clean. Breakfast Quiche was delicious along with fresh fruit and pastries. The jacuzzi tub was amazing for soaking after a long days hike. Would definatley stay here again.

We have stayed at the Houndstooth Inn several times and have never been disappointed. The Inn is located on the outskirts of the town of Oakhurst, about a 20 minute drive to Yosemite's south entrance. The property has many trees and is nicely planted with lots of roses and annuals. There is a stream at the bottom of a path, dry this time of year but flowing when we've visited in springtime. The rooms are quite large with lots of windows and light and tastefully decorated with just a few country items, his and hers wing back chairs, desk, in-room refrigerator, TV, DVD and radio. There is a well-stocked library of DVDs and games available in an upstairs niche. Breakfast is served in an airy window-filled room with individual tables and chairs, and guests can keep to themselves or converse with other guests. Serve-yourself breakfast consists of a hot dish (homemade quiche the 3 days we were there), fresh fruit salad, orange juice, a selection of breads, muffins and bagels with cream cheese and jars of jam. Granola and cereal are also available. In the afternoon there is a nice selection of half a dozen chilled wines, also available on a serve-yourself basis. It's nice to take a glass outside to enjoy in one of the many comfortable white wicker chairs available around the property and wait for the sun to set behind the surrounding hills and the crowds of crickets to start their evening serenade. Missing my kitty at home, I was happy to be joined by a sweet little black kitten who asked permission to hop into my lap and purr himself to sleep. The only time I saw the innkeeper was when we checked in and out (not your usual chatty hosts) and when we asked directions to Bass Lake.

The Hounds Tooth Inn was a great place to relax after a long day in Yosemite. There are plenty of chairs outside to relax in and watch the sun go down. Rooms are very comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was so good - fresh fruit and a homemade quiche, breads, coffee etc. Very Nice!

Very nice, easygoing place to stay. Friendly people. Good place to start a trip to Yosemite. A lot of restaurants nearby.

This b&b is a very nice place, just a short drive to the entrance to Yosemite. This is not a small establishment (a dozen or so apartments) and is certainly not cheap. But considering the location, the overall quality of rooms and the common area, I'd say that itis well worth yourmoney and time.

Exterior: Down the drive to a beautifully presented country home with the porch and bay window - great start. Reception: Welcoming, friendly and efficient. The only innkeeper to write down the information, did he guess we were forgetful! Ease of access. Single flight of stairs, not too steep. Room: Large with view of trees and garden. All rosewood furniture with tasteful decor and pictures/prints on walls. Large comfortable bed, table with two easy chairs, seperate wash basin in room with en-suite bath/shower and loo. A corner fireplace with log effect gas fire to complete. Just so good. Breakfast: Hot and cold choices with variety each day, nice to linger over a coffee in the breakfast room. Tips: Include on your itinerary for Yosemite, any room will do. Mention: Thanks to Bill for a great stay, I called it a haven but might have missed an 'e' and wouldn't mind finishing up at HTI when my time is up!

Stayed at the Hounds Tooth for three nights in September. The Inn is a convenient 20 minutes drive for the south entrance of Yosemite National Park and 5 minutes drive form Oakhurst which has numerous different restaurants. It is set in a large garden and although just off the main road is very quiet. Our room was large and very comfortable. Breakfast for excellent consisting of fruit juice, fresh fruit, cereals, bread and freshly cooked omlettees. In the evening complimentary wines were provided on a help yourself basis. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

We stayed two nights in a great room (Victorian Tower - 2nd floor). Only bed - mattress was inconvenient. Rates are expensive but near Yosemite it is a problem to find a good and favorable accomodation. Breakfast was o.k. but nothing to get excited about - we had much better breakfast in other B&B's during our roundtrip. Coffee was only brown water. They could try harder...

Our stay at Hounds Tooth was wonderful. The room was clean, the staff was very friendly, and the grounds are just beautiful. Now to my favorite part....The breakfast that was served was surprisingly delicious. My husband and I were planning on going to a restaurant that morning, but when we went downstairs for coffee we were greeted with so much food! There was a Frittata, a fruit bowl, two different cereals, toast, English Muffins, and all the condiments you needed. We couldn't have asked for anything more! Thank you, Hounds Tooth for providing us a home away from home. We will see you in the winter!

Really nice place to stay if you are visiting the district. Yosemite National Park is about 90 minutes ride to the visitors centre and there are plenty of eating places nearby. But you need to drive to them, although there is a pretty good TexMex about 10 walk away,

Room was spacious and very pleasant. Innkeepers were friendly. Coffee, tea and wine were available in the reception/breakfast area and outdoor chairs and a gazebo were enjoyable for sitting, drinking, reading and conversation. Continental breakfast included quiche. The one exception was a very annoying vibration and low pitched noise coming from the hot tub in the room next door at night. There appeared to be insufficient sound proofing, making it impossible to sleep until the hot tub was turned off in the adjacent room.

Very nice room and grounds. Friendly staff. The loveseat in our room was not comfortable but the bed was great so I sat on the bed and not the couch. The owners may want to sit on the furniture and check the comfort level. We would stay again and will tell our friends to stay at the Hounds Tooth also.

The room and bed were comfortable. The minifridge was a nice bonus. The room was quite clean, but the carpet was stained in several places. The wine bar in the evening was a wonderful "welcome home." We would stay at Hounds Tooth again.

The Hounds Tooth Inn was even nicer than I even expected. The grounds are beautiful, and even though it's on the edge of Oakhurst and Yosemite, in prime tourist country, it feels miles away from any hustle & bustle. Be forewarned, though, it is easy to miss the turn into the driveway (coming from Oakhurst) because it comes right after a curve, and you really can't see the building from the road. (There is a sign, so watch for it)

This was a perfect place to stay during my trip to yosemitepark. The rooms are very cosy and clean and the breakfast is yummie. It's the small details that makes this inn so enjoyable.

We had the pleasure of meeting and speaking with Bill and Anna. Both could not have been more gracious hosts. We stayed over the long Labor day weekend for a little getaway before our twins are to arrive. The inn was booked but the property was peaceful and the breakfast was not frantic at all. We stayed in both the Hearthside and the Simply Fanciful - both comfortable and clean. We went to Yosemite all 3 days (Sat, Sun, and Mon) and experienced moderate amounts of traffic. We would most certainly recommend this property to friends and return ourselves. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Can't say enough good things about this place. Our room was gorgeous and immaculate clean. Our host, Bill, was so gracious and friendly. This is our 2nd time here and we totally loved it. The area is so peaceful and enjoyable. Will definitely stay here again.

room was clean and very cozy, nice surrounding and garden, all together a pleasant stay

The Hounds Tooth Inn was the most expensive acoomodation that we had on our trip through several National parks in the USA, but also the nicest one. You can sit inside a nice well-kept house or outside in the garden to enjoy a glass of wine, which is for free. The rooms are decorated in different ways. The rose room was very nicely decorated and everything was clean. Also the bathroom. We enjoyed our stay very much and I can only recommend to stay at this place if you can afford it.

A very nice B&B. The map of restaurants could have shown distances for each. At least for the local ones.

Bill and wife really lovely people. Nice room, excellent complimentary wine from California and excellent breakfast! A place to stay for people planning a trip to southern Yosemite.

A charming room and friendly people put a great end to our trip through the national parks. Thank you!

Hounds Tooth Inn was a well thought out venue with plenty of room to move within your room which was well lit allowing light for suitcase foraging and reading and giving the feeling of cleanliness and airiness. Assets included shaving mirror, generous size fridge, reading chairs. Pre-dinner drinks & outdoor seating really nice extra. One negative - lack of block out curtain or blind meant you are awake with first light whether or not you want a sleep in.

We stayed in the Hounds Tooth room which was spacious and lovely. A nice bonus was that it had an in- room spa. The breakfast was really delicious. A great spot if you are on your way to or back from Yosemite. Just a nice getaway.

This hotel is very cozy and with a great relaxing atmosphere.

The Hounds Tooth Inn is a wonderful place to stay when visiting Yosemite. The rooms are clean & comfortable and the complimentary breakfast and evening wine is a great touch!

Our stay was on a beautiful August day before we visited Yosemite. The owner welcomed us warmly and the room was large and inviting. We relaxed outside with a glass of wine and had a nice chat with a guest from Australia. Highly recommended.

We had quite a nice evening at the Hound's Tooth Inn. I will happily recommend a stay to my friends.

They have really nice rooms. Ours was with Iacuzzi inside. Everything very clean and confortable. Nice garden. Delicious breakfast, and glass of wine in the evening! super

Very friendly and accomadating! Only 10 minutes from Bass Lake and close to Yosemite. Thank you again Hounds Tooth Inn!

Das B&B liegt außerhalb des Ortes auf dem Weg zu Yosemite NP. Sehr schön, sehr gepflegt. Top Zimmer. Und: Gutes Frühstück, was ja in den USA auch nicht immer leicht zu bekommen ist. Auf dem Weg vom B&B zur Ortsmitte Oakhurst kommt auf der rechten Seite ein guter Italiener, der sogar italienisch schmeckt. Fazit: Top Übernachtung, sehr nettes Personal. Wir würden dort jederzeit wieder übernachten

Room and breakfast were very quite good but the overall maintenance of the facility was very poor. The landscaping is super but it badly needs maintenance. Also, scrap auto parts were laying around.

I sometimes have a little anxiety about throwing down two bills to stay in a place I've never seen in a town I know nothing about - especially in a B&B, where the decor can run too "cutesy" for my taste. Simply put: the Hounds Tooth was quiet, has nice clean rooms that don't scream grandma cottage, and was more than worth the price. If you're visiting Yosemite, do yourself a favor and skip the overpriced Tenaya lodge, drive a few miles further south and stay here. Hopefully you get a room with a spa tub.

Hounds Tooth Inn is run by a friendly couple and the rooms are of high standard. The road is quite busy, with no sidewalk, so it's best to drive into town to get supper. Breakfast was fine, although I would have liked more in the way of fresh fruit. The outside area was pleasant and had a few tables and comfortable chairs to relax away from the noise of traffic.

Would definitely stay here again!! Location a liuttle misleading but still great!!

Bill is a wonderful host and the inn is an adorable home right on the doorstep to the Yosemite Valley floor. Amazing!!

we adored the B&B. The service was great and the breakfast very nice. We would stay there again!

Stayed for one night on a trip through California taking in the Yosemite National Park. Our party size was 2 adults and 3 teenagers.

I stayed here only one night while visiting Yosemite National Park. The place is excellent. Will definetely come back.

Location was #1 for us, as we were driving from San Diego and needed to stay somewhere just outside Yosemite National Park for a night. This place was an enchanting inn with very clean and we stayed in a romantically decorated room. In the evening we took a walk in their property down to a creek that runs through it. Breakfast was superb. Thank you for having a lovely place.

Rooms are very nice and clean, breakfast is below average but still ok. A bit pricy, but in Oakhurust all accomodations are quite expensive in high season.

We are a French family of 4 who stayed one night his August after a visit of Yosemite park. Hounds Tooth Inn is a great place: beautiful house so different and so more charming that the classical motels; nice service, espacially the complimentary wine bar to enjoy outside in front of the beautiful view; large, clean and well equiped room; good home-cooked breakfast. The location is excellent to go the south Yosemite, espacially Mariposa Grove (sequoias): the B&B is after Oakhurst, closer to the park that other Oakhurst lodgings. But downtown Oakhurst is only 3 miles away with all the supermarkets/fastfoods/restaurants etc. Excellent value for money!!

We stayed for 3 nights (4 people, of which 2 kids) in July 2011. We really enjoyed our stay: confortable and quiet room, excellent service, right location, delicious full breakfast etc. Moreover, the place was very safe especially for our kids who liked spend energy to run and play around the house. We would only have one recommendation: next time please keep the Zinfandel wine into the fridge....

Great location, just outside of town on the Yosemite side. Best part is having a glass of wine and going on the terrace with view of the forest. Wine is provided courtesy of accommodating owner. Hotel is minutes from the scenic road to Bass Lake.

I really appreciated the accomodation at Hounds Tooth Inn, the house Victorian style is decorated in every single detail, and the rooms are really amazing and very clean. Also appreciated the wine at the disposal of guests and the rich breakfast.

I have been trying to convince my husband to try a B&B for years. We booked the Hound's Tooth Inn only because there was nothing else available in the area in our price range. well, it was a great success....we both loved it! it was quiet, clean, relaxing.....a wonderful place to retire to after a busy day. We have family in the area and we will be back.
