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.

Great, flat (even ground) campsite inside of the park. Parking is close to hike-in sites. Short distance to clean facilities. Would stay again!

No shower and no water by the campsites. Water only at toilets, hard to do dishes. Neighbor campsites are really close.

Not what I was expecting and not high up on my list of campsites to pick, but it was cozy and the neighbors were great. Beautiful, had a walk in campsite and it was super short as well as a bathroom close by. Only downside is it's kind of far from the main valley/some hikes we did. Close to rainbow pools and hetch hetchy which was nice :)

Campsites and patrons were all very nice and respectful of quite time. Camp hosts were very nice and Rangers very attentive to all the campsites and their needs. Restrooms could have used a little more attention.

Good campsite if you want to be far away from downtown Yosemite, think like 45 minutes away. Some sites say “hike to” but nothing is farther than 100 ft away. No showers, no hand soap, no power anywhere, but still a good time. Very clean and the staff were attentive.

Everything was great about this campground during my stayed, the bathrooms were clean overall, and the campground was well leveled for tents. I enjoyed my stay here.

A busy campground with small sites. Hike in sites in this area are on a steep hill and have limited (or no) flat ground for tents. This site was fine with a small (2 person) tent, but would have been a struggle with a larger one.
Neighbours very close by with no trees or bushes separating sites, so don’t expect privacy.
Bathrooms a short (steep) walk away but clean with flush toilets and running water. No firewood for sale.
Note that this campground is a 45 minute drive from Yosemite Valley.
