Beautiful and great location for Yosemite

If you were unlucky like us and didn't get a campsite in Yosemite itself, this is an excellent choice! The campground is quiet and located about 15 minutes away from the front gates of Yosemite. Realize it will still take another 45 minutes or so to drive all the way to Yosemite Valley, but we would just get up early every morning and hop in the car and eat breakfast once we parked in Yosemite Valley. We would arrive in Yosemite Valley between 7:00-7:30 am and have no problem finding a parking spot for the day. 

We personally thought our site was one of the best in the area as it was nice and flat and private feeling as it was surrounded by trees. We do think site #28 is actually one of the best because it is really secluded. Bathrooms are pit toilets but felt relatively clean. There is potable water available as well. Also, recognize that there will be no cell service at this campground so plan accordingly!
