May Lake High Sierra Camp operates as a backcountry accommodation within Yosemite National Park, managed by the National Park Service. Access requires a moderate hike from the May Lake trailhead off Tioga Pass Road, making this a hike-in destination rather than a drive-up campground.
The facility provides canvas tent cabins with beds and basic furnishings, eliminating the need for campers to carry heavy camping gear on the trail. Meals are included with reservations, and the camp operates seasonally when Tioga Pass Road remains open. Campers exploring the broader region can find camping spots near Yosemite National Park for those preferring traditional camping experiences.
