There are also campsites far from the reception, even better and wilder. I recommend hiking to the waterfalls of the Yosemite River, with an arrival at the top of the valley, exceptional.

Overall, the campsite was fine. The only negative is some people in the morning who don’t know how to make a fire and all it makes tons of smoke. The biggest concern I have is that they’re working on the road that leads into this campground. Unfortunately, they’re starting to fix it up. On the areas of the road that are paved they’re unsafe because some young people were driving way too fast for such a road. They should either not pave the road or put in speed bumps or give traffic tickets to people who drive dangerously like that.

Lovely campground- a bit off to the main road, but quite and peaceful.

The campsite itselves is fine but the 4.7 mi of dirt road to the campground was bad. Rocky, holes, bumpy, you name it. It was hard on the car. Wouldn’t camp there again unless I had to

Very quaint campsite with convenient access to restrooms and trash cans. There is no running water so you have to bring in your own. Also, the road down into the campsite is at least a mile and a half, and is half paved and half unpaved. Lots of potholes on the way into the campgrounds. It’s a good idea to bring a truck, or a car with four wheel drive; although, we saw campers making it down in smaller cars just fine.

It was the most beautiful campground right next to the creek and we both fell asleep listening to it while we were there. Highly recommend.
