About North Pines Campground

For the 2026 season, North Pines campground will utilize a one-time Early Access Lottery which allows successful applicants to make a reservation within the entire 2026 season. Additional information may be found on Yosemite’s website.  Any remaining availability will be released during normal on-sale dates beginning with the February 15 on-sale.When not on a lottery, campsites at North Pines are available up to five months in advance on the 15th of each month at 7:00 a.m. (PT). For example, on February 15, arrival dates for the time period June 15 to July 14 become available to reserve, and therefore, the full arrival date window would be from season opening to July 14. North Pines Campground is located in breathtaking Yosemite National Park in Central California's rugged Sierra Nevada Mountain Range at an elevation of 4000 feet. The site is situated in the heart of Yosemite Valley, an awe-inspiring landscape containing many of the famous features for which Yosemite National Park is known. Within Yosemite, visitors can gaze upon waterfalls, sheer granite cliffs, deep valleys, grand meadows, ancient giant sequoias, vast wilderness areas and so much more.Reservation tips! Campsites in Yosemite are extremely popular and typically sell out in minutes on the regular on-sale dates. Login to your account or create a new account before the 7:00 a.m. (PST) release time. You may only add reservations to your cart and proceed with your reservation if you are logged into your account.

The camp site 308 should not be a campsite. There was no where to pitch a tent. There was no room for any thing. The parking space was substandard , no way 2 cars could have parked there and we needed to prune the berry bush to open our door. We are grateful our family could not join us, because there was no room for us to camp, let alone any one else. We slept in our van---due to the lack of space. It was packed in like sardines. We left early when our neighbors set up a port a potty tent right by our cooking table and played music constantly. It was too tight of a campsite.

This campsite should not be used as an individual campsite. We were extremely disappointed. Better spacing is much needed.

Riverfront! This site has its own private entrance. We were able to set up 2 larger tents (6 and 10 person tent) no problem. Has some rocky and slope areas.

We appreciate the position in the park ( curry village, merced river, shuttle), the quiet and the clean restrooms.

We had a great time. Our site was next to the river and it was very spacious. The bear lockers are large and able to accommodate all out junk. Not far from Curry Village if you need any other supplies (such as firewood).

513 was wonderful. River across the road however no access from across the road. River access is less than 5 minute walk away. Plenty of shade and a big area perfect for our family of 5. I would only want to come back to this campground next time we stay again in Yosemite village

The registration app wasn't working for everyone, but it worked for me. Everyone got registered for a space, though, so it was no big deal. A bear came through the campground sometime after midnight and surprised some teenagers going to the latrine, but it was big fun for most everyone. No big deal. Overall, the campground was easy to get to and there was plenty of space for everyone. A great community vibe. (It's a little hot even at night this time of year, but that's to be expected.)
