Absolute superior location and views! Beautiful campgrounds of all shapes and sizes, clean bathrooms, empty garbage containers, helpful kind staff. Area of improvement: stricter reinforcement of good guest behavior and following policies and laws. Thank you for having us!

I understand that Yosemite is a very popular National Park with thousands of visitors every year but this campground was crammed to the brim. Every campground was squeezed next to another making the entire campground feel crowded and disconnected from nature. While Yosemite is amazing, and the location of this campground is perfect, the actual campground didnt hold the same magic as the rest of the park.

Crowded, loud. Spot is near a nice creek on the edge. But overall the spots are just too tight together to really enjoy the campsite

your camp host was the rudest in all the 40 years that we have been going to Yosemite we had never been treated so badly by a camp host!!!! perhaps its time he finds a job he enjoys or one that he works with people of race that he prefers! also its so funny how the camp site right behind his had about 18 people and 9 tent up and they were allowed to camp there when it clearly states 6 people per site! i guess they were of his race! thank goodness we had only 5 on our site since one of my grand kids could not make it. I could only imagine. He stopped by our site 3 times a day to walk through and double check on things as he put it as he continued to walk past other camps.

I have always enjoyed upper pines camp ground especially the upper upper pine camp sites especially 214 to 220 with the stream running through the back and easy access to the hiking trails

Beautiful Campground in the woods, close to trails, friendly people all around and some deer visited for breakfast. Great!

Loved the campground! The water-filling station at the bathroom was super helpful.

Campground had good overall location within the valley but you are way too close to tower campers. Camping spaces are too crammed in. I wish the local bears came closer to our motorhome

Great campsite! Right below Half Dome. Tons of people but everyone was very respectful of the "quiet hours." Bathrooms throughout the campsite but no showers. Free showers at Curry Village for those with campsite reservations! Verizon had some spotty cell reception. Sometimes could get a text out. ATT had none.
