Lots of mosquittos at our site. The access road is painful.

Decent campground, vault toilets were well stocked with TP and relatively clean. Quiet at night. We enjoyed our 13 mile roundtrip hike to the top of Yosemite Falls.

I enjoyed the campground location off the beaten path
@CameronC666212 · Camped on Jul 10, 2025 at Campsite #39
No shade, bear can located far from site + picnic table, no fire ring, driveway into campground is directly in front of site- so vehicle lights shine straight into tents etc.. Site is also very poorly delineated leaving you wondering where your grounds are.
@JessicaH685289 · Camped on Jul 9, 2025 at Campsite #29
Great campground! Clean and well kept. Beautiful. Definitely a drive down a rough road but totally worth it!!!
@MiguelF39B438B · Camped on Jul 9, 2025 at Campsite #75
The reserved lot was worth the bumpy drive to the Camping site. Was located in a col- de-sac and had a toilet right across. Private, plenty of space for tent setup, fire camp and the kids to play around.
@BrandonCC6BFB9 · Camped on Jul 7, 2025 at Campsite #25
Very nice campsite well maintained. Take caution on the road in . The road is only wide enough for one vehicle with much of it unpaved. Definitely worth the visit!!.
@MisakA85AD1AFE · Camped on Jul 7, 2025 at Campsite #13
The good,Quite campsiteNot crowdedCreek runs through the campgroundsThe badNo potable water, must filter creek water or bring your own the road down to the campsite is terrible and can wreck your car
@Margarita9F334 · Camped on Jul 6, 2025 at Campsite #9
Loved our experience , we had campsite #9 shade is perfect the river is a good walking distance and so are the restrooms , just be careful when driving in and out its a one way road and some cars can be going pretty fast but other than that enjoyed it.
@DanI3356397330 · Camped on Jul 6, 2025 at Campsite #2
Number at camp was not visible from road . Great otherwise.
@SandyR2440123 · Camped on Jul 5, 2025 at Campsite #62
Great remote campground! Some reviews said the drive from the main road to the campground was rough but we saw everything from trucks, to Honda Fits, to minivans, to Teslas! Just take your time.
@AbrahamG6DF2D7 · Camped on Jul 4, 2025 at Campsite #64
Amazing campground, it feels secluded and separated from all the crowds that might stayed in the main valley. Spaces are big enough to accommodate 6 adults easily and they separated enough not to be too close to your neighborsJust have in consideration camp its over an hour drive from Yosemite village, and the entrance road its gravel for about 3/4 miles, so its recommended to bring a high clearance vehicle (even though doesnt need to be 4wd)
@DanaT0DB80390F · Camped on Jul 1, 2025 at Campsite #47
The way to get there was catastrophic. My bear box was broken.
@JohnW4841416 · Camped on Sep 11, 2022 at Campsite #7
Entry road in poor condition.
@DidierC7C2AB50 · Camped on Sep 6, 2022 at Campsite #46
It is a problem that campgrounds are on reservation only, and that it is possible to reserve online only. We did not pay attention beforehand and it was very hard to reserve once on site for lack of connection inside the park (although the person at the entrance told us the opposite).Once we had managed to reserve (we had to go all the way to the valley to be able to connect), we noticed that a sign at the entrance of the campsite said "Full", enevn though it was nearly empty.Why not keep part of the campgrounds on a first come first served basis, or at least make reservations possible at the information office?
@milieD1577E864 · Camped on Sep 6, 2022 at Campsite #75
Ill definitely go back!
@HeidiR8987013 · Camped on Sep 4, 2022 at Campsite #30
EXCELLENT CAMPSITE HERE! But it is very very remote. There is no service and the path to get there is long and daunting (it is unpaved). So our Toyota Corolla made it through but it was hard. Then when we got there - there were other people camping at our site which was awkward. They claimed there was an overbooking error and the ranger not there because she is only there in the mornings so we went ahead and slept at another empty camp site. In the morning when she did come back - she was no help at all. So other than that, the campsite itself was so beautiful and serine. Would recommend if you need a break away from the world.

This is a beautiful campsite, serene, quiet, and away from others but WARNING-- it is very challenging to get to! Go in through the Yosemite Tioga Pass Entrance. Drive in about 36 miles and the campground road will be on the right. You'll see the Yosemite Creek Campground Sign. NOW THIS IS WHERE IT GETS DIFFICULT. You have to follow this very bumpy road 21 miles (about 45 minutes) until you get there. I was no expecting that road to take as long as it did. Conclusion-- terrible to drive to, but beautiful & quiet!!

Camp Site #62....We had a wonderful time at this campground and the site was great! Creek in the back even though the water was low, but expected during this time of the year! We will be back!!
@EmilyG8895800 · Camped on Sep 1, 2022 at Campsite #70
We loved our campsite and had a great time. The road in was in pretty bad shape but we saw this as a good thing as it kept the campground at a lower capacity giving us more privacy between us and other campers. We expected gravel, but not large ruts so that could be improved upon but we took it slow (from start to finish it took us between 18-20 minutes each day twice a day to navigate the road up to Tioga) and grew to enjoy the experience. We knew that each morning we would see deer grazing in the meadows and squirrels and chipmunks dart across in front of us. Saw grouse also! The campground was nicely laid out and bathrooms were cleaned daily. Overall it was an incredible experience and if I come back to Yosemite NP, I would definitely stay at Yosemite creek campground (at the same site (70) too!)

Always beautiful. Unfortunately this year in September the creek was dry.
@KhajaM6A92BFB0 · Camped on Aug 30, 2022 at Campsite #26
Very peaceful and quiet. The drive to the camp was very fun to drive on, I loved it tho I was worried my rental will break down haha
@WeianZC2B2D9CC · Camped on Aug 22, 2022 at Campsite #18
The only site that can be reserved just a few days ahead. With that, the remote location and bumpy access road are acceptable trade offs. SUV is preferable but I did see some sedans. The site itself is beautiful. Totally enjoyed my time there.

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.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
