Close to the valley and Tioga Pass Rd. Just inside the park entrance. Campsites are crowded and tightly bunched. Maybe it was just the weather, but sites were very smoky from all the campfires. Would stay again mostly due to the convenience to the park's highlights.

I wasn’t expecting the walking campsite. It’s tough carrying a ice chest to a bearbox up and down a hill. The whole campground is very hilly so tough to sleep in your vehicle when it’s not flat.

Walk-in campsites really aren't very far from the parking lots.

This is a handy place to stay in Yosemite when nothing else is available. We stayed in the "hike in" sites and found them very closely spaced and located on slopes that were difficult to place tents on. If the sites were placed a little further from the road and parking spaces it would be easy to find flat spots for tents and a little more space and privacy. But there are signs posted saying that camping is not permitted beyond the boundaries of the campsite so people are packed in pretty tight. That said, this is a good staging area for adventures in the national park!

Not for tent camping.

Extremely overcrowded with no campsite/trail etiquette. If you are hoping to experience nature, this is not the place. The campsite is more akin to a Walmart parking lot only good for people watching.

Campground was good but site 57 was not a good location- right next to the bathroom, not enough space for 2 tents, located in a cluster of campsites so close to each other the people at the adjacent campsite stayed up late talking and kept us up.

Nice campground near the park entrance. Site is in a cluster of campsites next to the parking area so easy set up.

This site is close to 103. The different neighbors all paid zero attention to the quiet hours. Could not sleep even being extremely tired… Worst part of Yosemite trip..

Perfect spot very private. My sister and my brother stayed out in this site. Its hike in and huge. We stayed at #7 but this is much more better and leveled.
