This site struck me as being one of the best in the campground. It backs up to the Merced River, and has a generous area to one side, since there are no neighbors on that side. I deducted a star for two reasons - the first being that I could only stay one night because this park is the Disneyland of National Parks and youre fighting the demand of the Californian hordes. The second reason is that the bathroom building nearby was under construction, and the workers were there sawing wood at 8:00. I understand things need to get fixed some time, but this site would be one of the more affected sites until that work is completed. With a longer stay and no construction nearby, this site would be ideal for being in the Yosemite Valley.

-Arguably the best campsite in North Pines! Backs up to the river (in October it was still and allowed our 2 year old to play). -You have neighbors on one side only, a large area open to you on the other side. -You can see Yosemite falls from the camp site.-perfect trees for hammocks.- parking pad is large and relatively level.- parking pad allowed me to fit my 23 foot trailer and my Chevy 2500 side by side with walking room in between.

Always the best valley campground at the end of the road, especially with a site on the river....sublime.

Heaven on earth!
The early access lottery was very easy

The facilities and NPS staff were amazing. We enjoyed our stay very much. Our only issue was with another nearby camp not observing noise hours deep into the night and our not really having any recourse for that.

Thanks.

Wonderful first experience at North Pines. Campsite was great, Rangers are friendly, bathrooms were clean. Would love to go again.
