We had a great time here and enjoyed in particular the short hike to and swim at Lukens Lake - easily doable on a morning!

I stayed several days at White Wolf Campground.
Pros: nice wilderness and dark skies. Quiet. Good access to Tenaya Lake.
Cons: the toilet facilities are showing their age. Camp store is closed for the year.
Bottom line: I will certainly be back!

Quiet time was supposed to be 10:00 but there were four guys playing music and partying way past 10!

White Wolf is a good spot as a base camp or first night when visiting Tuolumne Meadows. We used it as a first night on a backpacking trip since the usual backpacker's camp is closed. Area seems clean and well-maintained, and the sites are spread out enough that you're not on top of your neighbors.

We had a wonderful time. Our friends stay there a lot so they gave some good information on campsites.
We have camped in Tuolomne Meadows for 70 years. White Wolf was the next best place and it worked out very well. We were able to get campsites close together.
The campsites were spaced so that we didn't feel crowded.

The campground itself is nice. The restrooms have running water in the sinks & toilets.

The websites photos of each site are not the best to determine if one’s camping equipment will fit, e.g., most sites accommodate small to medium tents, not large. Most of the sites were small.

Also, it is difficult to determine how level the sites might be.

There were some sites that are not at all level for either a tent or RV and probably should be pulled from the inventory.

No issues with bears or other animals going through the campgrounds. The Park Service does check on the campgrounds daily.

We would camp there again.
