Customer Feedback: "Plenty of sites open while we were there. Got one right on the creek that is also the only source of water in the campground. Not really many views but there's a little rock hill probably 30 feet high you can climb up and see some stuff. The road leading into the campground is more of a 2 mile road and 3 mile off-road trail. Some people had cars there that I would never take for fear of breaking something. It does look like they may try to improve it somewhat though so you may have a better experience on that front.

Weather was perfect, warm to low heat 80's after 12 and 30's overnight during our Labor Day stay."

We camped here for two nights celebrating my friend’s birthday. It was really a good place and I enjoyed taking a walk at night watching the sky.

The campground was very clean. The rangers are very helpful. It's big, has many spots to camp. A mile into the Yosemite Falls trail you can see a yellow tree on the left side that will take you to a beautiful spot by the river. You can go in the water and feel the stream of the waterfall. You will see also a great spot where the kids can play without worrying about the stream of the river. We love this campground it was our first family camping trip. My kids can't wait to go again! Ps. Take as much as mosquito repellant if staying overnight near the river.
