What Guests Are Saying

Tuolumne Meadows Campground offers beautiful scenery, well-maintained facilities, and friendly staff, making it a great base for exploring Yosemite. Visitors appreciate the educational campfire talks, proximity to the river, and ranger-led programs. However, some campers noted the campground can be crowded, and bathroom facilities are limited, with a long walk to restrooms for some sites.

First off, thank you for protecting our Natural Wonders and National Parks and protecting DAAAA baby BEARS! I spent my 1st trip to Yosemite for my birthday alone during a Global Pandemic. I understand and support any health steps to help, thank you. However, I spent 5 nights there in 4 different sport, one night, walking 10" to the next campsite, because everything was so booked solid and I had to wait on cancellations to make more reservations and extend my trip 3 times. Multiple other campers around me complained of the same issue, wasting valuable time each day to shuffle campsites. This is on top of the fact that almost every night, there really appeared to be about 50% capacity. Despite every night, Recreation.gov saying Upper, Lower, North Pines were SOLD OUT, every night, there were a large around of empty campsites. It was frustrating to be unable to plan a trip because everything was SOLD OUT, to see with my own eyes, many many empty camps every night. There just must be some better way to handle no-call, no-shows, and better management of keep from bouncing from site to site each night. I know you all try your best, thank you for your service. Speed kills da bears. Save da bears. Don't feed da bears. Did I mention da baby bears?

Had a great campsite with a view of the river. One recommendation bath rooms should have some kind of light in them for night time.

Though it is a decently long drive from the valley, there are plenty of really cool hikes to do here, including clouds rest, and cathedral lakes. Very nice campground right on the Tuolumne river and depending on your spot a great view of lambert dome across the river.

Typical campground horror story with obnoxious neighbors who pulled into camp at 1am, drink, loud, and walked into our campsite looking for wood to start a fire. There was no ranger/staff presence to be seen, and ultimately, they all passed out around 3am. Bathrooms were not very close, and I still don’t know where or if they had water. Luckily, we just pulled in, had a quick campfire, and went to bed, to get ready for the next days backpacking trip,

Great location! Nice layout and a great camp host! Excellent place to make as your base to hike up in the surrounding mountains and visit the numerous high-mountain lakes.

Absolutely one of my very favorite national park campgrounds I have ever stayed in (and I've camped at over half of the 63 official national parks)! Tuolumne Meadows is in a stunning location close to many hikes, lakes and night sky viewing areas the camp is kept beautifully clean, there are rangers and camp hosts always available and everyone there is extremely pleasant to deal with. The C.G. is huge and there are sites really close together but the way it's set up doesn't make you feel crammed. I'm in a campervan and there are plenty of options for nice, level parking. Bathrooms, water and garbage cans are never too far from your site, no matter where you are. And you can't beat the creek running through camp for your morning coffee and wildlife viewing spot. Definitely recommended!
