Nice Campground in very convenient location, right beside the Big Oak Flat entrance. This is a hike in spot, so if the campground gets crowded, you have to tip-toe to your tent, which can be a little bothersome. This spot is located along the campground border, down there the ground is soft and might be wet during or after rain. Take that into consideration whilst pitching your tent. Very friendly and helpful staff, clean bathrooms.

Only 40 minutes away from the Valley !
Close to gas stations and market before entrance at Big Oak Flat.

The bathrooms were really dirty. The whole campground is a dirt ground. Seems like no one does any cleaning in the campground. All the sites are on a slope. And no showers whatsoever. It has a potential to be a really nice campground though.

Super dirty. The bathrooms were a mess. Seems like no one does any cleaning in the campground. All the sites are on a slope. And no showers whatsoever. Horrible place to stay in the park if you ask me.

We loved camping at Hodgdon Meadows. The amenities were as described and the rangers nice. It was rather far away from the valley, which added time on to our daily activities. The main problem was the site was very unlevel. Our engineer son solved this by building a pile of firewood under one wheel! Even though it said full, there were quite a few empty sites around us. If it had really been full, our neighbors would have been quite close. I would go there again, but pick a different site.

Nice, shaded sites, quiet atmosphere, helpful rangers. Bathroom facilities lacking-- often waiting in lines for single toilet, no hand soap, drinking water faucet spraying in all directions above a disgusting greywater toilet-- how about getting an outdoor standpipe for drinking water? Additional toilets and showers would be great too.

We were in the walk-in campground numbers 21 and 26. As others have written these sites are only suitable for a 2-person backpacking tent. Which we had, so we were fine. I found these sites peaceful. I would use them again. It would be great if flat campsites were provided suitable for 4-person tents if the site were ever improved.
