Learn more about Wuksachi Lodge’s accessible rooms
Registration: The accommodations are a short distance across the main road from the registration desk at the lodge. We advise you to keep your luggage in the car while checking in and, if needed, ask for bell service to assist with your luggage at your designated room. There is a paved sidewalk with a slight incline from the parking lot to the rooms. Individuals with limited mobility may require further assistance.
Parking: ADA parking is located in front of the main lodge building with access to our registration desk, restaurant, and conference/meeting rooms. ADA parking is also available in the hotel parking areas with an ADA van and driver available to assist people to the buildings from these parking areas. The Lodgepole Village and Market has ADA parking and is wheelchair accessible.
Entrance doors: There are automatic doors at the Lodgepole Village and Market. The main Wuksachi Lodge building and hotel buildings’ doors are not automatic, but handles are at a height that allows a person in a wheelchair to reach and operate them. Please let us know at check-in if you require assistance as we have staff nearby to assist in the main lodge building.
Front desk registration: There is a wheelchair-height portion of the front desk counter where check-in can be done comfortably. Wheelchairs can access the entire area easily.
Ramps and elevators: There are ADA ramps to access all hotel buildings, but no elevators. All ADA-accessible rooms are on the entry level. There is an ADA-accessible elevator in the main lodge building to assist anyone in need in reaching the conference rooms or public telephones on the bottom floor. The entire Lodgepole Village and Market is on the ground level and all is ADA accessible.

Note: Our most difficult ADA limitation is the nearly 20 feet of snow we average each winter. Our staff does an excellent job with snow removal, but sometimes it isn’t possible to keep the walkways and parking lots clear during storms and may take a day or two after a storm before all ADA parking, walkways to and from buildings, etc., are clear enough for use by those in a wheelchair or with other special needs. Our staff is always ready and happy to assist and attempt to overcome these obstacles as needed. Generally, ADA accessibility is better from May until early November than in the snowy months. Many paved trails set aside for ADA accessibility within the park and the giant sequoia groves are not accessible during the snowy months.
