They won’t be driving six white horses when they come around the mountain, but when the new American Made Conestoga Covered Wagons arrive at Yosemite Pines RV Resort and Family Lodging, we will all go out to meet them, just as the famous song details.

The new Conestoga Covered Wagons at Yosemite Pines Resort near Yosemite National Park are a great glamping option. These exciting air-conditioned and heated wagons sleep either four or six people and offer amenities such as a under-counter refrigerator, microwave, coffeemaker, bed linens, picnic table and barbecue/fire ring.
The resort is the first in Northern California to offer this unique family lodging experience in the Yosemite area. The Conestoga Covered Wagons are much larger than the familiar covered wagons described in stories of the Old West, and that larger width and depth translates well for a modern-day Pioneer experience at the resort.
With the largest-ever response to a recent Facebook post by the resort announcing the new wagons – with a king-size bed and one or two sets of bunk beds – it is expected that glamping in the new wagons will be a high-demand experience for families as well as individuals. To meet this demand, Yosemite Pines is offering special “buy one night, get one night free” introductory pricing through September 30, 2018. Details can be found on the specials page on the Yosemite Pines Resort website.
Additional Lodging Options –
For guests who would like to stay in Yosemite area cabins, the resort has several different configurations of accommodations as well as Yosemite area Yurts and RV and tent sites. Many of the cabins have full kitchens and living rooms while some are basic and make very affordable options.
A stay in the Conestoga Covered Wagons will be among the best of Yosemite camping at the resort, which is just 22 miles from the western gate of Yosemite National Park. However, guests do have other lodging choices to spend quality time with friends or family on an Escapation™ – where “escape” and “vacation” meet. Fully-restored classic trailers like the 34′ Airstream, 34′ Silver Avion, 31′ Silver Avion or 32′ Boles Aero provide a generous dose of nostalgia, and the resort’s new 19′ and 24′ Silver Beach trailers built in the “retro” style sleep up to 6 people and are an affordable and popular choice for families.
The resort’s trailers offer a fun camping experience for individual campers or groups who want to enjoy a throwback lifestyle but desire comfortable amenities. And, the resort’s Yurts offer yet another glamping experience for those who want to combine the ambiance of nature with the comfort of a cabin.
Yosemite Pines RV Resort and Family Lodging also offers guests many on-site recreational amenities such as a swimming pool, petting farm with many adorable animals, bocce ball, volleyball courts, a fitness trail and outdoor movies and hayrides during the summer season.
The on-site deli also offers quick meals, or with a three-mile trip to the nearby city of Groveland, guests will find grocery and specialty shops and many wonderful restaurants, museums and other local attractions. Nearby recreation includes touring California’s historic Gold Country, horseback riding, whitewater rafting, hiking, and trips to gorgeous waterfalls and swimming holes.
