We spent 2 nights at #51 in October 2024 and had a very nice stay! The parking is extremely close, the bathroom is also nearby but not too close that we noticed the lights or foot traffic at all and the bathroom was also fine and clean. Also it was not as cold as the Valley, which we appreciated in October! It's surrounded by trees within and outside the campsite, and just inside the park entrance, which we enjoyed and made the drive in worth it.

If you want a quieter place to camp in Yosemite, this is the place. It doesn't have the hustle and bustle of the campgrounds in the Valley or elsewhere inside the park. It was only a 30 min. drive to Yosemite Valley and about 50 min. to Glacier Point- which isn't too bad. The rangers were also friendly and attentive in keeping the campground clean and organized. One downside is that the sites are small. If you are having more than one tent (3 person or larger tent), you may have to play tent tetris to not set up/sleep on slanted ground. We noticed a lot of sites had this issue.

Spot did not have a flat spot big enough to fit a tent. Lots of light from the restrooms.

Excellent location. Tent site sloped a bit but nothing horrible. Carlon Falls and Hetch Hetchy are both very close by and were beautiful.

The campground bathrooms do not have soap dispensers so bring your own any time you need to use the facilities.
