Testimonials

My family spent a week at Tenaya and had the time of our lives. The lodge was full of activities and helpful advice. We have great memories and pictures from the Tenaya and surrounding areas-it is near everything we wanted to do. We rafted, went horseback riding, rode the train and went to Bass Lake. We will be back!
