A little pricey, but the room was great with a kitchenette and stocked with dishes, utensils, coffee. Market for provisions about 12 miles up the road. For the price, slightly above average value.

Beware
No tv reception and were not told when checking in. Later when we complained, he offered $50 discount per night on accommodation. And he said he emailed Expedia. That was a lie. There was no discount

Great!....except for the faucet diffusers!
Very clean and comfortable. I withheld one star because... 1. Some of the dishes had dried on food from before. We washed them off ourselves but, yeah. 2. The faucets spray fine streams of high pressure water meaning that it sprays all over but not much water is actually coming out. So it's hard to wash your hands or dishes but the counter and your clothes end up with overspray by the time you are done. I read the reviews about this and, yep, it's annoying. It probably doesn't save water because it takes 3x longer to wash stuff or fill up a glass of water anyway! I wish I brought a small vice grip and a normal diffuser to use, but why would I carry that around with me???! Otherwise would stay there anytime. It was a great close bedroom to explore Yosemite

Layout and amenities of Red Bud Inn were perfect for us in our journey to Yosemite NP. The staff were very accommodating. The room, bathroom, kitchen were ideally clean and well appointed. I was much better than we expected for our needs. The only draw back is the noise on the highway, which we contributed to with our driving. We may stay here again in the future, if we return to the area.

This property is not clean enough. I don't know when they cleaned the cabinet in the kitchen. And TV did not show any channels. But the room is more spacious than I expected.

Red Bud Lodge Very Isolated.
Fidning the Red Bud Lodge was the first adventure next to no signage you come around a blind corner and the parking lot entry is right there (a gap in the concrete edging into very tiny carpark.).The Red Bud Lodge was clean and large size room with a mini kitchenette. The staircase was very steep to access the room via an external set of stairs. The location has no cell service, no phone in room, there is no onsite manager if anything is required you need to travel about 3 miles to Cedar Lodge who also manage this hotel. Distance to Yoemsite NP is great. The dining options are very limited there is a restaurant at Cedar lodge where we found restaurant staff rude unhelpful and the prices were ridiculous for a hamburger. Please be prepared if staying here to have your own food. The parking is also very limited not enough spaces for all the rooms. Overall I would look at alternative options if going to Yosemite NP.

Theres alot of things that made our stay very complicated. Such as no wifi, and only 2 channels on the TV. There was only hot water coming out of the sink. The shower water was also not that cold. No cleaning service or staff.

Nice place to stay that is pretty close (8 miles) to Yosemite. The rooms are all on the second floor up an outside steep staircase if that is difficult for you. They have no front desk there so you have to check in at the Cedar Lodge down the street but that was no big deal. The room had a kitchenette of sorts with a hot plate, dishes etc but we didn’t realize that so didn’t take advantage of it. Friendly staff. Clean room.

Great spot near a bridge where 2 rivers come together. Walk across the street to have coffee on the river. Unfortunately the nights we stayed construction on the bridge started after 9pm. Otherwise lovely spot and place.
