Hodgdon Meadow Campground

The facilities were very nice, the only problem was the visitors unfortunately. There were a few groups with pretty loud campers well into the night. I also ended up having something from my site stolen when I was on a hike. Otherwise everyone I met was great and I would recommend for a person who doesn’t want to stay in Yosemite valley but wants the experience

I really like Hodgdon Meadow Campground! Quiet and animals are around. I knew there were bears 🐻 and we saw one climbing a hill right next to the entrance to the campground.
We had to stay in two separate sites. They call it the ‘Yosemite Shuffle’. 1st night was in space 104. Bring plenty of leveling equipment.
The next two nights we moved to space 85. Much nicer, not as bad to level and easy in and out. I want to compliment our Camp Hosts and other people at who were camping at the park. We locked ourselves out of our travel trailer and the keys were in the trailer and extra trailer key was in the Ford 150. A NPS came to the rescue and opened up the truck and we had an extra trailer key in the trailer. Our RV neighbors brought WD 40 and sprayed our handle and lock on the trailer. It should never have locked us out!

I like Hodgdon Meadows for a few reasons, quiet and near the hwy 120 entrance. People were really helpful and friendly. It is 45 minutes to an hour drive to Yosemite Valley. As long as you are okay with that, it is a great place to camp as long as you have leveling equipment for your trailer or Rv.

Nice staff, and was able to book for Memorial weekend on two weeks notice. Only thing is there were no showers, which made it a little grimey after a couple days. Thats it.

Good, we'll maintained site. Close to bathroom. Supervisor and park rangers were very helpful and informative when we had a bear near by. About 40 min drive from the Yosemite valley.

Too many people for only two bathrooms. There was also no soap or hand sanitizer on bathrooms. People in other sites would just walk through ours even when we went to bed.

Much more privacy compared to campsites in the Valley. Easy access to Merced and Tuolumne groves.

Our campsite, and most that we saw, were far from level - neither the paved drive in for my van, nor the options for placing a tent

I recommend this campground to whoever can't book a site at the Yosemite Valley campgrounds, want a cooler/higher elevation option, want a gas station nearby, or want to visit the beautiful Hetch Hetchy Valley or take Tioga Road to Tuolumne Meadows. However, it was confusing to find Sites 3 and 4 on the printed map at the campsite kiosk and I had to circle around the loop to find it. Small issue for an amazing experience.

Campsite was excellent and the park rangers were very kind and helpful. My friends and I had a great experience!

Beautiful campsite, well kept, close to main attractions. Many campsites are on steep hillsides and close to other campsites.
