I enjoyed our stay, definitely less crowded and easy access. Right across from the restrooms. It is about a 40 min drive to most of the popular trails so keep that in mind (vernal falls/mist trails) but close to glacier point (about 15-20 min). There are no showers so keep that in mind. & bathrooms were okay.

The campsites here are way too close together, and the campground is very loud. People were yelling from the minute we got there until the minute we left. The people next to us and their small children were up until 1am yelling and running around with sticks that were on fire. The campsite itself was overgrown, and we had a hard time finding a spot for our tent. The bathrooms were a bit of a walk away, but they were flush toilets at least. The location of the campground is convenient for going anywhere in the park, but there isn't a store nearby.

Very nice. Loop B is among the glacial erratics more than Loop A, so those sites are pretty neat.

The sites are pretty. Some are surrounded by granite boulders and trees but some are close together and can get noise. Great campground as a base to explore Yosemite valley, Mariposa grove and Glacier point.

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.
