Hodgdon Meadow Campground

Quietness but site leveling to be improved.

So nice to be able to find camping in Yosemite close (30min) to the valley and hiking! We camped in a hike-in spot. The trails around the campground to the campsites and the bathrooms are not clearly marked with just dirt and pine needles everywhere. It was extremely difficult to find your way around the campground at night with a headlamp. Felt so bad for all of our neighbors when we accidentally walked through their campsites trying to find our own and the bathroom.

We enjoyed our stay but the campsite was very basic. There are 2 washrooms that have water for drinking in one space with a sink for waste water. It was a lot of work to tote water back and forth to the bathroom when there was no direct route from our campsite to the bathroom. To dump the water from our trailer would require a 1 hour drive to the Upper Pines campground in the Yosemite Valley.

Most of the sites in Yosemite are closest to the Upper and Lower Pines campground. We couldn't get a campsite at either of these sites on the first day of the registration process.

Very nice site! Close to bathroom and clean!

Great campsite but could be more accurate with how level the tent pads are.

Rangers were amazing. I really enjoyed my stay

Campground has lots of trees and shade. Can get dusty and no showers. I recommend bringing your own hand soap and thicker toilet paper for the flushing toilets. Clean water is available and individual bear lockers for each site! My family loved it!

I'm a long time camper at Hodgedon Meadows campground. The campground is old and in major need of refurbisment. It should be closed for 1 or two seasons and upgraded. Improved signage, road improvent, walk in site parking improvent, campsite boundry improvent and esspecially the outdated restrooms need upgraded. Hodgedon needs an upgrade like what Crane Flat just had. Crane flat can become the yearround campground until Hodgedon is reopened.

On very much Campsite‘s for RV‘s we‘ve seen Tents. So, we think the bookingsystem doesn‘t filter this option. The Campsite‘s are very oblique for the RV. But its near to the Yosemite Valley and the ambience in the middle of the forest is very beautyful.

Not too bad of a walk down. We did have a problem with heat there as it didn’t seem to cool down as much as other parts of the park at night. But over all a great place.
