It's convenient to Glacier Point, which gives us a beautiful view of the high country and the Valley below. Had to remember to take a flashlight to the restroom as there is no electricity. Nice to have flush toilets though, and clean drinking water available. Able to obtain lots of firewood from downed tree branches using a hand saw. Met some nice people. Pretty chilly the first night, but better the second night. This was the only place I could get a reservation for, but there were a lot of vacant sites, so that wasn't a problem. Campground was clean and campsites well marked.

Location of campsite is great for day hikings. Shady site and quiet. You can choose anytime to visit Glacier Point from there.

Park rangers were exceedingly nice and helpful.
Temperature was quite cold in the night and early morning, but that's OK given the elevation.
Beautiful night sky though. We were just disappointed that no bears showed up!

we really enjoyed our stay at bridalveil campground. the remoteness and serenity paired well with our day trips to the valley floor. watching the full moon rise over our campfire each night was an unexpected bonus. 5 stars

Policies & Rules
Arrival & departure
- Ensure you read site alerts and book an appropriate site for your equipment.
- Notify the park if you're arriving late to avoid cancellation of your reservation.
- Contact park services for further information via phone or website.
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
Wildlife & food storage
- Store food and toiletries properly to avoid attracting wildlife; use provided lockers and dispose of waste in bear-proof dumpsters.

- Review the 'Need to Know' section for important horse camp rules and regulations.

Fires & fuel
