Curry Village is a resort in Mariposa County, California[2] in Yosemite National Park within the Yosemite Valley.
A rockfall in 2008 damaged a number of structures, and about one third of visitor units were closed because of risk. In 2012, eight visitors to the park developed hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, and three died.
In 2016, the name was temporarily changed to Half Dome Village due to a trademark dispute between the National Park Service and a private concessions company, Delaware North.[3] The name was restored in 2019 along with others in Yosemite, upon settlement of the dispute.[4]
