It was mine and my husbands first time camping in Camp 4 and we loved it so much! We will definitely be camping at Camp 4 more often!

Camp 4 is always a wonderful place in the winter - allowing easy access to all valley floor areas!

Epppppic! Ive been to Yosemite NP many times but this was my favorite. Mostly because of luck. The weather was perfect and in January/february, there are no crowds! We hiked everything and ate an drank at the awhanee! Food there is very average but everything else was a 10!

Went in January, only a few campers present and all dispersed throughout campground (Plenty of available campgrounds). Fires were allowed and firewood very easy to find in local area, without having to buy. Bear Boxes allocated to each campsite. Bathrooms sufficient but no showers (go to camp curry for showers). Check-in process easy, by following instructions at Hut at entrance of camp. Free Wifi (password located at hut). Overall great stay.

Great campsite, will always appreciate the more-than-fair fee, beautiful surroundings, and kind people both staying there and working in the area. Just a heads-up (you probably already know this) that the showers there are not open currently nor is that second, "newer" side of the camp.

Pretty friggn wet, but that was expected since i stayed during the atmospheric river. The hikes were incredible. It was snowing on my first hike and clear skies on the second. There was knee to thigh deep snow up on the mountains which was incredible to hike through. Loved every second of it.

We came in on a holiday weekend, unaware of the reservation system in place. Ruben was working at the Kiosk and was super helpful in helping us find a campsite elsewhere until we could get into Camp 4. He called around to check other campsites for us, which in my opinion, is going above and beyond. Thank you Ruben. When we did get checked in Cantiago (sp?) was also friendly and helpful. Both he and Ruben stopped by our site in different days and chatted with us. We felt very welcomed by them. On the day it switched from reservations to first come, first served Ron was working and despite the fact that it was cold and raining he stood outside and answered all my questions and helped me navigate the app to get our site reserved. Thanks to all of them. 5 Stars!

Ive stayed at this campground at least a dozen times. Its always been first come first servebut not this time. This time I drove my family 6 hours to find out that it has been changed to reservation only and that it was fully booked because half of the campground was closed for no reason whatsoever. Super lame.

Camp site was organized and well maintained even during the govt shutdown. Staff was friendly and helpful. The location is great in the middle of the valley under some trees with outstanding views a short walk away in every direction. If you want to book a fun last minute getaway camping trip in Yosemite, this is the place to do it!

Please be aware that this is not for everyone. You have to carry your tent and everything in to the campground. Then you have to share your site with other people. Our site was as far away from the parking lot as you can get so we had to make a lot of trips carrying ice chests and everything. Still, we were happy to be there.

So many inconsiderate people ruining the experience by being loud or careless with trash. I met some wonderful folks as well, but still, I wouldnt come back. The campground is set in the lowest, dampest, coldest part of the valley. The rangers seem to be trying to do their best but honestly just no.

Despite the shut down, the restrooms were clean and supplied. The check-in ranger was super nice. My only complaint is that the showers are not open.

No check in needed, as we arrived after, and left before, the kiosk was staffed. But my name was printed there on the sheet. And it was simple enough to find the spot.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
