This campsite is at the North entrance to the park, which is great, because it saves you from towing a trailer through the park to the valley. The downside is that it is 30 minutes from the valley. The park was nice and quiet and there was plenty of wildlife around. We arrived mid-afternoon and were greeted by a big, white tailed deer, who just ambled along her way as if we were just a minor nuisance in her world. There are regular bathrooms, which was nice. We visited in winter, in mid-February, and the park is spectacular at this time of year. It's the time of year for Fire Fall, which is where Horsetail Falls is backlit by the sun at sunset and looks like lava flowing. It's truly an amazing site. We got to glimpse it as we drove into the park at sunset, which saved us the 2-3 hour commitment it takes to walk to the viewing sites. You also must see Bridal Veil falls and of course Yosemite Falls. If you get a chance, do the 2 hour hike to the Mariposa Grove of Sequoias at the South end of the park.

If you're one that camps in their vehicle then be aware half the parking spots for the campsites Are Not Level.

The campsite was very clean and was an awesome spot. The drive to the valley wasn't to far and I could never get tired of driving that road. It was an amazing experience being in Yosemite.

Nice campground with toilet facilities, however the sites are very unlevel. We were in a small class C RV and could not get it level. We saw people in tents on the slope, which makes it hard to sleep. It would be nice if there was a central spigot for potable water.

Very few sites accommodate RV's. Most sites are some distance away from parking. We used as launch location to visit valley floor as those campgrounds were full.
