Beautiful but crowded. The drive through to the valley is the best part. Around the lodges and restaurants it is packed with people. Lots to do outdoors but not a serene environment.

If you are in the Valley do it! One way or another you are going to be here if you are in the Valley! The Visitor Center is here as well as the Post Office. Send your friends a post card from here! Yes, some of us still send real postcards.

This was a nice place to stop and relax for a while. The store was well-stocked for such an out-of-the-way location. We didn't eat at the deli, but it was a very clean and cheerful place with a fire burning and people enjoying coffee. We'd definitely come back for a bite or beverage there. The Ansel Adams Gallery was a highlight.

We shopped at the Village gift shop and dropped almost $200 on gifts including Tolumne beef jerky for our daughter as a stocking stuffer. It was not cheap but it was stale and nearly rancid. What a waste. Fortunately our dog likes it.
Sadly, we also bought some nuts in the Yosemite Falls lodge cafeteria - and they were stale - and expensive.

Most stores in the Village are open. Museum closed, Visitor Center closed but they did have staff outside to answer questions and give advice and maps. The Village Store is pretty well stocked with items. We didn't have any way to cook but they did have prepared sandwiches and salads - which we took advantage of for hiking. Parking only for the store is right outside, and just a short walk away is parking for the Visitor Center with very clean flush bathrooms.
Signs - agree with other TA posts - need better directions. Once we did the 'circle' once we figured out where we were going.

We exited Happy Isles through hordes of tourists knowing the shuttle was down due to Covid. We booted from the exit of the JMT into Yosemite Village. Pretty much a disorganized mess, no restaurants open, visitor center and theatre closed. Covid has ruined things here. We did find a grocery store that was open and was able to charge my phone while waiting for the YART bus. I would love to return here when things get back to normal. The backdrop is stunning.

Signage, roads, road work, parking problems all over this village. What an absolute nightmare, blocked roads, no entry signs, red cones everywhere. This village is appalling and the worst I have seen though visiting over 35 National Parks. And to top it off the visitor centre was closed 🤦🏼♂️. Yosemite management, word of advice, get a grip!!

Here you will find new/clean bathrooms right in the main parking lot then it’s a 5 minute walk to the village. Signage very poor, not very obvious how to get there. You’ll see cars parked closer but this is short term parking for the store. There are several options for food, our favorite was the pizza bar in Curry Village a little further east down the road. We also did a free bike rental via Yosemite Bike share (get app). Regular bike rentals are $30/person for 4 hrs. Good swimming areas available throughout the valley also.

Yosemite Village Store visit in a peak winter wonderland. It was absolutely magical to visit the village after the snowfall. The view was a picture postcard. The snow was deep and chains on the wheels were compulsory. There was easy parking as the traffic was stopped due to the snowfall and we were locked into the valley.

Hi Contact the NPS directly. I don't know if there are any wheelchairs to rent from the Yosemite Visitor Center in Yosemite Village. If you ask on the TripAdvisor forum, we can offer advice about how to enjoy Yosemite NP with physical limitations (wheelchair accessible trails, parking for folks with a disabled placard, accessible viewpoints, etc.)
