Not a flat site but still nice.

We had reserved space 11 to park our camper van. When we arrived at the campground that space had a large pile of ice and dirt plowed in front of it. There was no one at the campground who could assist. We ended up finding another place to stay outside of the park.

Parking for the walk in campsite I reserved was nonexistent. Too many cars parked in the spot I was supposed to be in. Had to park far away. It is a small Campground and the sites were mostly not very flat. If you need to be inside Yosemite boundaries this is your campsite. Otherwise I'd look elsewhere.

Be prepared that there are no shops close by and that it is still 16 mi to the Valley. It is a great place on your way to the Valley with great views on the way down. The campground itself is a straightforward forest campground, secluded, quiet. Nice hike possible to the giant Sequois

It was fun to camp in the snow at Hogdon Meadow. As it was before the season, only one bathroom was open. It was challenging to find a pathway to the bathroom that didn't cut through someone's campsite. But the site was peaceful and remote. It was great to camp at Yosemite in February!

Such a beautiful location. Went early February and there were only 2-3 other guests within the campsite so it was super quiet and relaxed. Got caught in a nice little rain/snow storm which was a very cool experience.

Nice big camping, clean and enjoyable.
Toilets were clean (with running water but no showers).
We went to a talk at sunset given by a ranger from the park which was awesome.
Very nice stay.

We got there when they were transitioning from reserving online to first come first serve, lucky for us because everywhere else was booked. The hike in camp gave a seclusion and the trails were picturesque. Overall, best camping experience ever.

This campsite was not at all suitable for a larger campervan. It was just a narrow curve going up and down a steep hill with no space to adjust the angle of the vehicle.
