This emplacement not perfectly flat for an RV. This campground is great but quite far from Yosemite Village if you planned to hike for this place. When we arrived late at this emplacement, 3 cars where parked there making us impossible to park our RV in a flat position. So we parked elsewhere.

No hiking available from this campsite - you have to drive to see anything or hike. Bathrooms are small and old. Not bad, just not as nice as most other parks we’ve been to.

The campsite we had was on a slope which made it much more difficult to set up camp. The campsite was spacious, and they allowed people to collect the dead branches for fires. The location was further away from the valley which meant a short commute. We loved the remote location, wildlife was visible throughout we saw deer and many different types of birds. I wish this site had more support for maps.

Location was great. The campground entrance is off of a road just after the entrance to the park. The valley where most of the sites are is located at the bottom of the canyon, which is a bit of a drive after entering, so I was pretty happy with the location being close to the entrance. There are a few hiking trails nearby, so being outside the valley was still a nice spot. If you want to hit the major trails (half dome, etc.), then you would have to drive down into the valley.
Our neighbors were noisy and messy with young children, so being at the site location was not at all peaceful, but outside of them I enjoyed the site.

The bathrooms were definitely lacking. Just outside the campground is the visitor center with a much superior bathroom. With two on-site camp hosts you think having a mounted soap dispenser would be very doable. How about hand driers?

For those who are familiar with Hodgdon Meadow, campsites here tend to be a bit cramped. This was not the case for this site; it's a little more secluded, quiet in the nights and near a short hike to Hodgdon Meadows. It's a hike to site, so the vehicle will be far away from the actual campsite, the restrooms are also far away. The site is slightly sloped, there are no totally flat areas (which is the case for most of the campsites at Hodgdon). Most of the site is shaded, so it's on the cooler side. Be warned, it is pretty close to the group sites, which tend to be on the noisier side, nonetheless when we camped here the group sites weren't excessively loud. Overall, pretty satisfied with our camping experience here.
