We had a lovely stay for one night in Wawona. We stayed overnight in our car to be close to all the hiking paths in Yosemite. We made dinner on the provided grill.

Campground was great but got charged for 3 nights at 3 separate spots as well as not accepting my Golden Age Passport. Paid over $150 for our first night regular spot.

I rarely stay at NPS campgrounds & unfortunately this experience will only reinforce that. We arrived to a site with garbage scattered about as well as a little end table left from a previous camper. The fire ring had no less than 4 inches of ash in it, making it difficult to enjoy a fire. No showers & no dishwashing station. Our site was close to the river, which was nice, but beware the highway is up the hill directly behind the site. Overall, for $36 a night, I expect better conditions.
