This is a beautiful campground, the sites are so far apart that you can’t see your neighbor. The sides are so big, probably the biggest I’ve ever seen. It is extremely close to Yosemite. The one thing that I would want to caution about is that the roads are dirt roads and some of them are steep. The camp sites are also dirt. So for me, who was in a 15 passenger van, I had a hard time backing into the site. I was also really worried about if I was going to be able to get out of the campsite. I wouldn’t book this again in a rental car, especially not a 15 passenger van. If I was in my own SUV which four-wheel-drive I would be thrilled to be here. I talked to somebody else who said they just had a little Mazda or something and they had no trouble there. I would say bigger rigs could have trouble.

Overall a good campground. Pretty quiet. Clean restrooms. In hot weather not that great if you have a site without or with little shade. Our campsite did not have good flat ground. Some poison oak.

Quaint and quiet for the most part. Construction on the mountain above that was noisy in the mornings. Our site (007) was awkward to place our tent with where the fire pit and bear box was. No flat ground for the tent.

The campground was small, but the sites themselves had a good amount of space. The campsite does not have a paved road. The dirt road was easily drivable. The bathrooms were well maintained and clean. The camp host was very friendly, courteous and polite. We stayed for five nights and enjoyed our stay. The camp host is at a nearby campground, but came by at least twice a day to check on the campers and the bathrooms. The other campers were quiet in the evenings and usually left early in the morning. We stayed at site 7 which has a lot of sun and is on a hill but afforded good view of the stars at night. Despite being right next to the bathroom we experienced very few smells wafting from the bathroom. We didn't have any problems with critters or wildlife during our stay. We recommend this campground.

Stayed for 1 night since we weren't going to make it to Hetch Hetchy before the road closes but overall a good place to stay. We were in site 2 which is big but hard to find a spot for 3 tents that wasn't slightly sloped. The bathrooms were clean. Even though the reservation only allows 1 car, our site could probably fit 3 cars but each additional car is $8 which you can self-pay or someone in the morning will come and ask for it. We couldn't figure out how to use the water pump until the next day and you just have to keep pumping until water comes out. Not a simple faucet. You will hear cows mooing and their bells at night every couple minutes. Not sure about during the day.

If you can’t get a campsite inside the park, this is a great one. Not perfect, but I had an excellent time staying there for 3 nights!
