Many guests appreciate the cleanliness of the facilities and the opportunity to explore nearby trails.

You’re at the highest point of Yosemite and that means no potable water, no internet and none of that. It’s GREAT if you really want that secluded space! Downside is is the roads, terrible even with our car which had great ground clearance. So BEWARE TO ALL SEDANS AND LOWER CARS. Other than that I had a great time here

Good campsite and stay. Restrooms were clean and decent.
The route to the campground is made of gravel and not a paved road. There were sedans in the campground.

This is an excellent campsite. Only complaint is that the drive down to the site is 15 minutes from the main road and a little bit hard to find (note: google maps location is not correct). However, once you get there, the site is close to some great hikes and is pretty peaceful, unless you get the Frat Boy party site next to you (as we did the first night). Would definitely come back

The campsite itself was beautiful, clean, and safe. The weather was great. The drive in was bumpy, especially for a smaller hatchback.

It was a great experience and one of the best primitive camp ground, we saw a black bear approaching the site. Google Map cannot take you to the site location, watch out for Yosemite creek campground directions sign in the Tioga road, take the 5 mi dirt road, looks like they are working on the pavement, soon this road will be accessible easily, I went in a sedan Nissan Versa, it was not difficult for me to drive to the campsite.toilets were great and clean.. I have pinned the GPS location where you need to take exit from the tioga road to the campsite—> https://maps.app.goo.gl/cT3JuNufNS7sNEKG8?g_st=ic
