It's a nice spot but definitely busy. Camp host doesn't regulate anything so you have too many people in a spot and you have people being loud all night (past 1am). A lot of people don't respect your camp site a d will walk through. The restrooms are kept relatively clean and the showers are decent. It's about a 2 min drive to get to a decent spot to swim at in the lake
Amazing day! We lovers had a blast! Pretty and easy paths.
Rough camping. No water service, very hot and dry, and the people in the site next to us were up until 2 AM. Quiet hours were not enforced. Cars were driving up and down the road all night even though the front gate was supposed to be closed. We left the next morning for home, foregoing our Yosemite trip.
