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 recreation.gov call center does NOT have access to additional sites or additional information beyond what is published on recreation.gov. Yosemite National Park Campground Reservation Dates

We loved the site! Expected it to be more crowded but for a cold April it was perfect. Not too many people running generators at all hours or taking over the paths, though I'm sure this may be different as family camping season comes around. The bathrooms were stocked with toilet paper consistently and the proximity to the visitors center etc was really great. Everyone was super nice too.

Check in could have been better. I had back-to-back reservations at the same site but was told I had to check in again for the second reservation.
Then the check in guy messed up on the card I was suppose to display. He put my check in date not my check out date.
I wasn't asked for my senior pass the first check in but it was requested my second check in.

I love North Pines Campground! Right at the Merced River confluence with Tenaya Creek, walking distance from both Curry Village and the Ahwahnee (via the bike trail), and Mirror Lake if you are up for a longer walk. Set in the best spot in the valley!

Camped right by the Merced river and the view I had was of Half Dome. What else could you ask for. The campground is nothing special, place to park, fireplace and access to a clean bathroom. But let’s be honest, anywhere in the valley is natures wonderland. I appreciated have a place to camp.

Nice location, bathroom was clean. Rangers were very respectful and courteous; they checked on us about bear watch and they made us feel safe especially it was close to the hibernation season.
