Echo Valley Retreat: Hot Tub, Game Room & Views near Yosemite

Echo Valley Retreat was made for families and groups who want an adventure by day and a cozy, fun home base at night. It's tucked into the Sierra foothills on a paved road, just 10 minutes from downtown Oakhurst's restaurants and groceries. You'll have mountain views, quiet nights, and dark skies made for stargazing. Our guests' two favorite spots are the hot tub and the game room, and we think they'll be yours too.
