Cedar Lodge
Rooms were great. We were here off season, October so breakfast was not in a sit down restaurant it was to go stuff. Dinner was in the pub and there was a sister restaurant up the road if you wanted a change. It was very nice and great being close to the park.

Red Bud Lodge
The only issue was that, to check in, we had to drive back ~2 miles, to a nearby lodge (no office at the location) (we were coming from east/Yosemite and tired!). It would be nice to let customer know before hand (eg email that before hand the day before).
