What Guests Are Saying
Yosemite Creek Campground offers a beautiful and serene setting, with well-maintained sites and clean restrooms. Many campers appreciated the peaceful atmosphere, proximity to nature, and the opportunity to see wildlife. However, access can be challenging due to a rough and lengthy road, and some visitors noted issues with noise from nearby campers and site cleanliness upon arrival. Overall, it's a great spot for those seeking solitude and an immersive nature experience.

First of all Yosemite Creek Campground it's beautiful!!! I was lucky to stayed on a great campsite :)
Be ready for the 5 miles drive from the Tioga Rd to the campground and part of that road (Old Tioga Rd) it's a dirt road.
Thanks to everyone who takes care of that beautiful place!!!

The only site that can be reserved just a few days ahead. With that, the remote location and bumpy access road are acceptable trade offs. SUV is preferable but I did see some sedans. The site itself is beautiful. Totally enjoyed my time there.

This is a great isolated campground. Very quiet, and not busy like the Valley.

Staying at this campground is no joke but looking back, I'm so happy we did. The drive down is very treacherous and laden with potholes. Couple this with how remote it increasingly becomes the further you get away from the main road and cell service, it's quite scary if you don't have an alternative way to communicate in case of an emergency. I would definitely bring this if I stay here again, but despite all the above, it was a beautiful and secluded campsite and probably one of my favorite nights spent in the park. Most campgrounds in the valley are packed full of people and you don't get as much connection with nature. I loved feeling truly alone out here and highly recommend the treacherous drive down to Yosemite Creek if you are up for the challenge!

Absolutely loved the campground. I wish I had more time than one night.
Know that the road to the campground is not maintained and it can be dangerous on a low air tire (my case). Be safe! Highly recommend!

Never could find the campground . We took a little road after seeing the small sign indicating the campground, but after a few minutes the road began to deteriorate so much , we started to fear for our van that is not equiped to go on such damaged road. We figured that it could not be the road for a National Park Campground and the sun was getting down and it got darker so we got out of there and slept elsewhere. Very deceiving. Hope we can get a refund.
