The campground is fine, but it is quite far from most of the Yosemite “highlights” and there is no/low cell service.

We were VERY glad to snag a site at all, so we’re grateful to have had the opportunity to visit Yosemite. That said, we were not clear from our website reservation experience whether we were actually legal in our site which said “tents only” while we were in a 20’ self-contained van. But the guy at the entrance booth said we were ok to go in. Honestly though, the campsites were REALLY close to each other. People were well-behaved and quiet enough as the evening progressed but there were just too many. I never used the restroom facilities.

Beautiful location. Sites could be more level but tough terrain for that. Well located to a lovely section of the park, including the drive to stunning Olmstead Point.

Bathrooms were rather limited and dirty and the water is only cold. There are no showers on the campground

We spent 2 nights at #51 in October 2024 and had a very nice stay! The parking is extremely close, the bathroom is also nearby but not too close that we noticed the lights or foot traffic at all and the bathroom was also fine and clean. Also it was not as cold as the Valley, which we appreciated in October! It's surrounded by trees within and outside the campsite, and just inside the park entrance, which we enjoyed and made the drive in worth it.

Thoroughly enjoyed my brief stay here. Park ranger was extremely friendly and helpful. Stayed in spot 62. Beautiful. The biggest advantage of Hodgdon is also its biggest disadvantage. It’s located immediately adjacent to the 120 park entry kiosk. That means it’s a great place settle in after arriving at the park, or to stage your departure, but it’s quite far from the valley and Village.
