VerifiedJuly 7, 2025 • Stayed at: 101, Loop: North Pines
Excellent location for valley hikes -- we walked to the Vernal Falls and the Mirror Lake hikes, and we also walked down to the village area most nights. Site 101 is one of the best sites in the CG. The site was fairly level and wide enough to fit our 27' Class C and Honda CRV toad. This site has none next to it, so your "front yard" is about the size of 3 regular campsites. In addition, the site is riverfront and near the bridge. Since it's right next to the gatehouse, people are actually driving 5 mph or less (unlike what tends to happen away from the eyes of rangers). The nearby bathroom had running cold water but no soap. If I could ever get this sit again, I'd definitely go for it. The sites next to us were much more closely packed.

This is a great campground! We've camped ~3 times at Upper Pines but entered the lottery for North Pines. It was very nice. The river was about 50 feet away from our site and there was a view of Yosemite Falls. The bathrooms were clean. The camp manager did a good job of making sure quiet time was enforced around 10pm. We had a really good experience.

Great campground as always! The rangers were lovely and so helpful. Site 318 was small but nice. Shade in the evening, sunny in the morning. Easy to back into and accessible. There's several close bathrooms that were always clean. Grateful to the park service for facilitating our stay in such a magical place!

North Pines is one of my favorite campsites in Yosemite! The rangers are always friendly and willing to support you with any questions. They facilities are also one of the best in the park. I look forward to visit every year!

The campground was busy in the middle of the valley. Sites are close together. Bathrooms typical NPS. Sites are short, so pay attention to size requirements. Enjoyed our stay. Hosts were cordial and helpful.

Be sure to bring bug spray, the mosquitos are bad. And watch out for the squirrels they are very persistent and not afraid of humans at all. Keep food in bear box and don't leave your car door open. Otherwise an amazing stay.
