While brand new, Firefall Ranch has historic roots, having served as a stop on the original stagecoach route to Yosemite in the 1870s. Set on 300 sprawling acres of meadowland and Sierra foothills along Yosemite’s Highway 120 West corridor, the most direct route to Yosemite from San Francisco, Firefall is owned and built by local contractor Robert Boyer in partnership with the Chicken Ranch Rancheria of Me-Wuk Indians of California and is operated by First Light Resorts.

First Light Resorts is home to three remarkable lodges, each ideal for exploring Yosemite National Park: Evergreen Lodge, Rush Creek Lodge & Spa, and now Firefall Ranch. Each serves as a ‘destination within a destination’ and brings distinctive style to amenities such as restaurants, taverns, general stores, saltwater pools & hot tubs, activities, and professionally guided excursions, with no hidden resort fees.

Leading in sustainable travel, the lodges meet rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, operating and fully self-funding a behind-the-scenes Youth Program, comprehensive water conservation systems, and award-winning stewardship efforts
