The tent area was unfortunately not quite flat, we ended up sleeping on a slight slope and I ended up crumpled at the base of the tent both nights. Other than that, good site. Bathrooms were decent.

We were given a RV site for our camper van and it was incredibly slanted beyond adjustability. We ended up having sleep while sliding off the bed. Additionally it was beside the dumpster which was insanely loud while trying to sleep.

Beautiful Campground, but Tough Logistics
Yosemite is pure heaven and this campground is clean, well-maintained, and run by wonderful managers with a great community vibe. However, the setup can be challenging. Having no showers and being forced to park away from the campsite was a HUGE inconvenience—we had to haul all of our gear back and forth through other people's campsites because there is no direct trail. The 45-minute distance from the valley was also a bit annoying. We made it a great experience anyway, but the packing and unpacking layout is definitely a downside

Best rangers ever these young women at Hodgedon. Friendly happy kind. Better than any others on park. I give meanest ranger award to Yellowstone, lol

This is a great campsite within a good distance of the valley. I appreciate that each night people respected quiet hours at 10pm. The rangers were very attentive to food storage and bear safety. The campsites are unique in that some you can park at and some have general parking. Nothing is ever too far from your car.

The camp ground hosts and rangers were amazing. They were friendly and knowledgable. The camp site was great
The drive to yosemite valley is a bit long, but you get to enjoy amazing views.
