Was very happy with our stay at Crane Flat! Bathrooms were clean and althought a large campground we didn't feel as crammed in as we did when we stayed in the valley of Yosemite. Since it's higher elevation it was also cooler. Definitely recommend!

I did find one of the volunteers extremely narrowed minded about camp fires. We had a log that -although it was bigger than normal- burning within the iron circle and he and his wife wanted to reports us to the fire Marshall when at that time there were several fires (big ones) around the area. He called for a fire unit to come to our camping site. Obviously, he never got a response because they were extremely busy with a real fire. We followed his requirements to put out the log but, which we did and then, he forced us to completely put out the rest of the fire. It was not necessary and it was weird. We believe he overstepped his authority and made us very uncomfortable. Other than that, we appreciated the campground and were lucky enough to not seeing him again.

Very new and clean campground in the woods. Some mosquitoes. No soap on toilets.
@JaneNBBAD56C85 · Camped on Sep 3, 2025 at Campsite #406
The campground was clean and quiet and close to things but our tent trailer had to be parked along the road and down an embankment from the table and firepit. Very tight and inconvenient.
@NatashaGC07E0C · Camped on Sep 1, 2025 at Campsite #512
LOVED Tony as a camp host!! Can't wait to see him next year.
@BrytaniMF75FF3 · Camped on Sep 1, 2025 at Campsite #122
Good location whether you're going into the Valley or along 120 for a day hike. Clean campground and bathrooms. A lot of spots have a decent incline though so something to be aware of or no worries if you're in a tent!
@LilianM1580183 · Camped on Aug 28, 2025 at Campsite #421
Site was nice and clean, just very tiny and in short proximity to other sites. All sites around site 421 were tiny and close to each other. Bathrooms were clean. Just be prepared for limited privacy.
@EliseC596ED8AC · Camped on Aug 25, 2025 at Campsite #525
The location was great and exactly as expected. The site, including the bear locker and picnic table were clean. There is a very clean bathroom nearby. Stairs are required to access from this site. There is no soap, hand sanitizer or paper towels in the bathroom, so bring what you need. It is always amazing to wake up under the redwoods in Yosemite!

Parking was confusing at night. No clear signs
@AdrianM8BF629D · Camped on Aug 22, 2025 at Campsite #544
Campground was kept super clean and the host are super friendly and informative. Only thing folks should be aware of is the incline. Not a big deal just gotta be careful with taking things up and down the parking spot.
@CaitlinSE9CAFF · Camped on Aug 21, 2025 at Campsite #105
I loved the campground and the camp hosts. Amazing experience all around.
@JackieD1320356 · Camped on Aug 21, 2025 at Campsite #111
Thanks to the people that make it possible to camp in such a beautiful spot, we had a wonderful time. The ranger who checked us in recommended Tenaya Lake, which we didn't know about and was a highlight for us. Thanks!
@SoniaM74055666 · Camped on Aug 19, 2025 at Campsite #102
Excelente campamento, limpio seguro. Adems tiene cerca una tienda y gasolinera
@JasonF6346958 · Camped on Aug 17, 2025 at Campsite #210
When I arrived, someone was in my site and the camp hosts were off duty for the evening so I was left without a campsite.
@KimberlyG96485 · Camped on Aug 17, 2025 at Campsite #404
Beautiful and peaceful campground about 30 minutes from the Valley and 60 min from Tuolomne Meadows or Glacier Point. Great place to stay if you want to explore it all.
@LidiaB5228312F · Camped on Aug 16, 2025 at Campsite #305
It was so nice to find a place to stay inside the park, with dates matching our Half Dome permit, on short notice! . Our campground was perfect with a short drive to the valley floor. We would absolutely stay here again!
@breannadD07BEA · Camped on Aug 15, 2025 at Campsite #422
the campground was super clean, quiet, and a perfect stay for our fury! thank you
@BriannaH151518 · Camped on Aug 14, 2025 at Campsite #301
The campground is beautiful and the sites are really well sized! Bathroom was very clean. The only downside was that we had some very loud neighbors.
@NancyL5001540 · Camped on Aug 12, 2025 at Campsite #208
A great alternative to camping in the Valley. We loved it! Beautiful and spacious! Highly recommend!
@RobertoC167199 · Camped on Aug 12, 2025 at Campsite #506
I absolutely loved this campground, it was so quiet and peaceful. Camping areas and bathrooms were clean. It was around 35 mins from yosemite valley, the ride there and back had beautiful views! Theres also a gas station outside of the campground and the Tuolumne Grove trailhead which I loved. I would definitely stay there again.
@JonathanE40733 · Camped on Aug 11, 2025 at Campsite #518
Interesting terraced sites in hilly campground. Not much privacy between sites. Campground is in a good spot for drives into Yosemite Valley or on Tioga Road.
@JanB6161427 · Camped on Aug 11, 2025 at Campsite #304
Great campground. Nice, clean, but missing freshwater toilets.
@GordonJ93A8281 · Camped on Aug 10, 2025 at Campsite #436
The campground and facilities were well maintained. Sites provide some privacy with wonderful trees all about.

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.

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.
