Would have been an excellent review if potable water was more readily available.

This campground and this site is always great. But on this trip there was a new camp host I hadnt seen before and they were great. Kept the place nice and clean. The restrooms were clean and stocked. The host really was just great.

Really enjoyed talking with the Camp Manager, he had intricate knowledge of the history of the area.

Keine duschen und eher jeder fr sich. War fr uns nur eine Alternative, da um Park nichts frei war. Relativ teuer fr keinen Service.

Loved this very clean beautiful environment! Isolated and quiet, very long drive, but very pleasant. Love, the isolation and peace. The Camp Host was very friendly. We will make it an every year trip. Thank you

The Camp Manager was very pleasant and informative to talk to and the restrooms were kept in the best shape I've seen in my 40+ plus years of camping @ Dimond O! Kudos to all involved!

We loved staying at dimond O.
Campsite was really close to Yosemite entrance, campgrounds were really clean and well kept. We would love to stay here again

Lovely forested camp ground. The river runs right behind it and was really pretty, quiet, and cold year round.
We loved the quick bike ride to visit evergreen lodge just over the hill.
Did not find the camp host particularly helpful, although they did keep the grounds very nice. They ran their loud generator from afternoon until 930 at night. Felt rude due to so many tent campers.
There is no where to top off RV water or dump your waste water anywhere near the camp, so come prepared.

Beautiful campground. Our site was closest to the river, so at night you can hear the water. Super quiet campground, hardly any trailers, mostly tent campers, no generator noise. Very nice. This site was private enough, far away from the next camp site. The trail down to the water is next to the site, but there is enough space to where it is not an issue with people walking by (there was trees/brush separating us from the trail). The river is clean and there is shady areas to sit at, shallow enough for the kids to play comfortably in the water.

Stayed in site 24/25 along the creek loop. Overall camp was quiet in evenings except the one night someone let their carhorn blare for 10 minutes in the middle of the night. Site was right next to the trail down to the creek which was a short couple minute walk. It was nice hearing the sound of the water running at night. There was another trail down to the creek by the bathrooms that was a little longer but I liked the creek over there better. The site was a double site so it had room for 2 large tents (one on each side). and big parking area. Our tent was 16' x 10' and fit. It was all very flat. There were 2 bear boxes which easily could have fit multiple coolers in each. The bathrooms were cleaned each day so were as clean as you could expect for no flush toilets. No sinks. Just a couple water spigots spaced throughout camp.No issues with bears but heard there haven't been issues in the area since the rim fire. We were allowed fires in the firepit. Fire wood could be purchased from either of 2 camp managers on site for $8. Only a few wasps around when we started cooking but very manageable compared to another campsite I visited recently. Didnt feel the need to setup the mesh tent we brought. Located 15 minutes from Big Oak Yosemite gate or about an hour to Yosemite Valley. Closer to Hetch Hetchy gate but didn't head that way ourselves.

Beautiful quite campground
@GabriellaR332 · Camped on May 31, 2021 at Campsite #24
This campground is fantastic! Sure, you’re about an hour’s drive (with some entry station traffic) to Yosemite’s Tioga wilderness and Valley attractions, but driving three miles down the access road to the campground just adds to how special this place is.
It’s secluded, away from road noise and the river’s flow and swimming hole is a very short stroll away- some sites have the river right behind them. Not to mention that the camp hosts are fabulous. There’s a lot of attention that goes into keeping the grounds well kept and clean.
We also appreciated being only three miles away from Hetch Hetchy, too. It is a part of Yosemite that does not receive many visitor’s and to take in what used to be there (It was John Muir’s favorite valley), is a trip in itself.
Treat yourself and stay at Dimond O, you won’t regret it!

The camp manager, Robert, was professional, friendly, and kept the campground in exceptional condition. The best experience we've ever had. I hope Robert gets recognized for his stewardship.

The campsite was great. Lots of space for tents, good amount of space for vehicle. There was a fire pit and log benches around to sit on. There was also a picnic table. I scored a spot just a handful of yards away from the stream. My only setback was that the day I had hope to get some solitude and lay in my hammock next to the stream they were doing some sort of log/brush clearing. And construction on the road or something. At 8 am I was rattled by the sound of commercial grad chain saws and road graders. So my day of solitude was spoiled. I ended up packing up my entire camp and taking off. So sadly I did not get to enjoy the setting. When I booked the site there was no fore-warning of any work that was to be done or construction notice.
