"I stayed in a pet-friendly family suite (there were 3 adults and a small dog in our party) in mid-October. Great location to the Big Flat and Hetch Hetchy entrances to Yosemite. The staff is SUPER friendly and nice. There's a park across the street where I was able to walk my dog."

8/10 Good
"Very eclectic little place to stay. The Expedia listed sq footage of 65 is inaccurate. It's actually 650 sq ft. Indian Flats is actually part of the adjacent lodging facility so you have access to an outdoor and indoor pool. The adjacent facility has a great restaurant also (limited hours). Cute little feature was a towel creature like in a cruise ship cabin. Kitchen area very clean. The "Cozy Cabin" has parking right next to the lodging. There is a fire bar-b-que and seating behind plus a little sitting table on the front porch. The lady at the front desk was very nice and helpful. Later that evening I had a question and she immediately sent someone to help me. I felt very safe. The facility, though old, was clean and in fine repair. Only thing it really is in need of are the Venetian blinds to be replaced. They have definitely seen better days. Overall, great experience."
