Many campsites way off level. Difficult for RV, even with blocks. Need to regrade driveways. Outer ring best for privacy. Inner ring crowded and no clear boundary between some campsites. People were frequently walking thru our campsite to get there bathroom.

The terrain is quite steep and there are few flat spots for a camper or tent. There are no water spigots close to the road - so it's difficult to put water in an RV tank. There is no cell coverage there. Most of the tent sites involve a steep hike from your car

Secluded and with more privacy than other camp grounds we saw. 40 mins from the valley. If your going in not peak time then this is not a problem at all.

The park rangers were excellent but the campground was shockingly primitive and very poorly designed. Few of the campsites were level, the toilet and washroom and other facilities were wholly inadequate. There were few if any picnic tables. We came from Portland Oregon and our experience in the national parks at Mt. Rainier and Crater Lake as well as in state and county campgrounds and in Canadian national and provincial park campgrounds was without exception far superior. It was an embarrassment that all the visitors who travelled across the country or from Europe or Asia had to endure such poor conditions. Yosemite is so significant both physically and historically for the American West, indeed the whole nation, that it is really sad that visitors’ experience is spoiled by a stay at Hodgdon campground.
