Accessibility to water and dumping station was convenient. A lot of public restrooms was nice.

Love site 043. It's spacious with 2 picnic tables, close to two restrooms nearby but quiet.

Overall Yosemite is beautiful. I was very disappointed when I arrived for our week long camping site at Upper Pines Campground. They had construction going on relocating the dump site for RVs right next to the camp sites on the first row. Also, they only had one operating bathroom to accommodate over 50 campsites in the first loop. They did have smelly port a pottys and hand washing stations lined up the walkway which effects all campers who are camping on the first loop. I wish there was some communication on their end . Not fair to campers who travel so far to only find construction and porta potties the whole time we camped. It really was disappointing.

Very clean. Organized. Bathrooms were in good shape and warm because they have a heater running at all times in the colder months. Had a great time and will go back again.

Stayed at site 43. There was lots of rain and some snow which the roads slushy. However, over all it was an awesome trip. Bathrooms were clean and stocked, rangers were helpful. Not a lot of people though because of the weather so it was nice to have peace and quite. Great time!

A great stay, as always!

We had a great time. Most of the people were friendly. But the bathrooms in lower pines was very dirty & messy. We arrived on Sunday. Then on Tuesday were complained to the rangers about the bathroom being dirty. There finally got cleaned on Thursday. Not good especially with Covid-19s still going around!!Also I have an issue with the handicap sites which seem that anyone can reserve them. If someone is going to reserve those sites, they should show their disability plackard when they arrive. Those of us with walkers or wheelchairs really need those sites!!

We spent 6 days at the park. Space 43 was close to two separate bathrooms. Had a wonderful time.

We had a great time at Upper Pines. The weather was perfect and views were amazing. There were 2 restrooms located near our campsite and both were pretty cleaned and maintained well. It is also conveniently located by Mirror Lake and Mist Trail making it very easy to access these popular hiking spots. Only downside that we experienced was that we arrived around 12:15pm to our site (checkout is by 12 noon), however the previous group was still there and took their time leaving. We had to wait about an additional 30 minutes before they left. No “sorry” from them either!
