If you have a reservation at The Redwoods In Yosemite, you don’t need a Park Entrance Reservation.
In 2024, Park Entrance Reservations are required to enter the park between 5 am and 4 pm on select dates. This includes:
- Every day from July 1 – August 16, 2024
- Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays in April, May, June, September, October, and the second half of August.
Fortunately, guests staying at The Redwoods In Yosemite Vacation Home Rentals, are not subject to this reservation system because all cabins are in Wawona, inside the park. Plus, if you want a longer visit, your entry privileges extend for the entire duration of your cabin reservation, not just the three days of the park entrance reservation.
So, why complicate things? Get the lodging reservation that allows you to skip the park entrance reservation process entirely.

During the spring and fall, if you enter on a date that doesn’t require a reservation (for example on a Friday), your entrance fee is still valid for three days. You will have access to Hetch Hetchy* and entry during non-peak hours (before 5 am or after 4 pm). However, if you want to visit most park destinations during peak hours, you will still need to get an entrance reservation. This is similar to having an annual or lifetime pass – your entrance fee is covered, but you still need an entrance reservation to enter during those peak hours.
*Hetch Hetchy has a separate entrance and no entrance reservation is required to visit that part of the park.
