The Pines Resort

One of our favorite holiday traditions returns this year… Santa is visiting The Pines Resort on December 24th! Each family staying with us will be invited to schedule a personal, heartwarming visit with Santa - a chance for little ones to share their Christmas wishes, snap a keepsake photo, and feel the magic of the season up close. It’s moments like these that make the holidays at Bass Lake truly unforgettable. Warm cabins, twinkling lights, time with loved ones, and the joy of creating memories that last far beyond the season. #basslake #basslakeca #yosemite #holidays #christmas #santa

It’s one of our most popular family events of the season, and we can’t wait to see all the smiles (and silly faces!) it brings. Don’t miss out on the magic — save your spots today before reservations close! basslake.com/events
