Many cabins are pet-friendly, though policies vary by location. Reservations are essential, particularly during peak summer months when availability becomes limited. One reviewer noted, "Reservations are hard to come by...we reserved in January for March of the same year and got lucky." Most cabins enforce quiet hours beginning at 10:00 PM.

    Housekeeping Camp — Yosemite National Park

    Comfy makeshift hotel in a campground

    this is the ultimate glamping. Bunk beds, electrical outlets, private patio with awning and round picnic table, even curtains for your shared sleeping quarters. Near by clean restrooms running hot water. Id recommend wearing sandals for showering. Nice open space between campsites. We had the campsites reserved months in advance next to the river. It was pretty dry the this time. Enough water to capture some great photos. In the campgrounds there were large bear lockers, and well distributed benches and fire rings. Quiet time is 10pm and they are strict about it. Cant reallly complain about yosemite though. Its just pure beauty.

    Curry Village — Yosemite National Park

    Lovely Rustic City

    aka Curry Village

    My daughters and I have now stayed in both the canvas tent/cabin and a hard-sided cabin. Both provide comfortable beds with sheets and a warm blanket on each. (If you like fluffy pillows, bring one from home.) 

    We stayed in the heated tent/cabin during a major snowfall and stayed toasty-warm. I’d give this place an extra star if we were able to boil water in the tents, so we could make our own warm food and coffee, but it’s not allowed. There are bear boxes to lock up any food you do bring. There are places in the valley to buy warm meals, but they really weren’t very good, especially for the price. 

    The showers are warm and have good water pressure. They always had clean towels available, too.

    However, Curry Village is packed with wall-to-wall people. Despite quiet hours, there seems to always be That One Guy who gets drunk, loud and obnoxious. On our last trip, That One Guy decided to yell obscenities in my daughters’ faces when they asked him politely to keep the noise down. It was 15min before quiet hours and it was obvious that most of the other guests (many with small kids) had gone to bed. Other than calling the front desk, there really wasn’t another option for “crowd control.” 

    When I camp, I do prefer remote, quiet places away from crowds, but I did appreciate the convenience of Curry Village’s location. We really were in the heart of the valley with great access to the best hikes. All in all, we enjoyed our stays.

    Curry Village — Yosemite National Park

    Waking Up to Half Dome

    We stayed here March 2022.  We booked a heated tent cabin for 4 nights.  It had 1 double bed and 2 singles, a storage tower, 1 central electric light, and 1 electrical outlet - this is not advertised, but if you tell them you have a CPAP or other medical device needing an outlet, they will let you know that there is one in the heated cabins.  It was enough to power a power strip, charge our phones, and run said CPAP (LOL).  The beds were comfy and the linens were great.  We requested additional blankets as the comforter on the bed was nylon on both sides and kept sliding off the beds.  We were given old school wool blankets and they were great!  We did adjust the heat often as it would actually get too warm.  

    As we visited in the off season, not all of the amenities were available (pool, restaurants), but it didn't bother us at all.  The guest lounge was often crowded and we only spent one evening in there.  Showers and toilets were very clean.  It was still fully booked when we went, but the grounds are quiet are people were very respectful of the park rules.  

    This was a great central location to do Yosemite.  We woke up under Half Dome every morning, did the Mist Trail, Vernal Falls trail, and Lower Yosemite Falls trail.  Doing it in the off season was awesome as the number of additional people not actually staying in the park was very small.

    Reservations are hard to come by...we reserved in January for March of the same year and got lucky.  Book through the NPS as other sites charge additional, unnecessary fees.  We also recommend packing in food.  There are bear lockers to store it.  Dining in the park is provided by Aramark and is average at best.  We took a trip outside the park to dine in a nearby city and had a wonderful dinner. 

    Overall, we would definitely stay here again and again!  It was very peaceful and comfortable.

    Curry Village — Yosemite National Park

    Location, Location, Location! But Pricey!

    Overall, the proximity to being in The Valley outweighed the negatives of our stay. 

    While pricey for what it is, it IS at the far east end of Yosemite Valley with easy access to the Mist Trail. The tent-cabins are close to each other (3-8 feet), and we were woken by our neighbors our first morning (they were checking out early, and while quiet hours were 'officially' over, it was still 0730...and since it was during the heat wave, we hadn't gotten to sleep til well after midnight).

    That said...we were expecting foam rubber mattresses on wooden plywood shelves for beds, but the bed frame, mattresses, pillows and Rumpl blankets were a nice surprise (the website stated there would be wool blankets). The towels and sheets were in need of some fabric softener though.

     It was HOT. Having camped in tent-cabins before (not Curry Village), we brought fans with us that helped cool things down in the evenings, but having fans [battery operated/ rechargeable (we had Ryobi rechargeable fans)] helped us out.

    We couldn't figure out how to make the tent-cabin canvas window 'shades' to stay open- which was necessary because we needed the ventilation - we had brought along some binder clips that we were able to jury-rig to keep the canvas flaps over the screens open,  though. 

    Showers and restrooms were adequately clean, and showers were hot…but nothing to write home about. 

    We were surprised by the trash on the grounds near the cabins (where our nearest showerhouse was)-  in fact, a zip-lock baggie sat on the ground in the same spot for the three days we were there, before I picked it up on our way out. Additionally, on the grounds of the tent-cabins, we found several nails and other hardware on the ground.

     We were also surprised by the size of Curry Village, which isn't really discussed on the website. We were in tent-cabin 749 on the far east end, which was great until we had to walk to Camp Curry and/or the parking lot. We brought a wagon to carry our gear from the car to the tent-cabin, but once again, we've done this before, and we felt really bad for the folks lugging all their stuff without the benefit of a cart. Next time we'd bring bikes to help with the longish walk (400 meters? Maybe longer?) 

    The food options were great! The pizza is fantastic, and it was nice having the ability to grab pizza/tacos/burgers as an option at the end of the day (cooking is not allowed in the camp, but we 'tailgated' with backpacking stoves and meals a couple of the days).

    Curry Village — Yosemite National Park

    Great tent cabins and facilities

    Stayed two nights here in a 2 bed tent cabin. Slept 3 of us perfectly and was somewhat heated. Meaning the heater likes to turn it self off at times cooling the tent back down before kicking back in. The bathroom and showers were great for camping showers. The is a nice lodge style place to hang out plus great pizza place on site as well. This is a perfect place for those who like to camp but not fans of tent camping in cold snowy conditions. I will definitely return!

    Muir Trail Ranch

    Most Rustic/Posh Outdoor Experience Ever!

    Backing up to the John Muir Trail all the way into the back country of the high Sierra is this Gem of a ranch. It has amazing amenities, such as cabins, tent cabins, developed hot springs, all meals included, toilets and running water, horses back tours/packing, backpacker resupply, and store. 

    Getting there however is quite a feat. First you have to traverse a one lane road nearly 30 miles back into Florence Lake. Then you have to take a boat ride to the other side of the lake, and finally you have to hike 5+ miles to the ranch. It is all worth it for the sunning views, great food, amazing fishing, hiking, and all around experience.

    Curry Village — Yosemite National Park

    Excellent location, close to shuttle to all the main trails

    The location is perfect for all the Valley trails. There is a shuttle right outside. There are several campgrounds here. There is a space for tents and also a village of canvas tents for those who prefer glamping. For food there is a convenience store nearby, a restaurant and a pizza place.

    TIPS:

    Tent cabins are close together, you will hear your neighbors, bring ear plugs

    Leave early, the trails get crowded very quickly

    Lots of tourists so parking will be tight

    Driving into Yosemite is horrible lately, especially into the Valley, CARPOOL!


Guide to Fish Camp

Cabin camping near Fish Camp, California offers lodging options at the southern entrance to Yosemite National Park, with elevations ranging from 5,000 to 6,000 feet. The area experiences significant seasonal temperature variations, with summer daytime highs averaging 85°F and winter lows frequently dropping below freezing. The cabins in this region typically range from rustic single-room structures to multi-room accommodations with varying levels of amenities.

What to do

Hiking accessible trails: North Pines Campground provides access to popular Yosemite trails, with one camper noting, "Great location right in the middle of Yosemite Valley. Great access to beautiful hikes and scenery. The camp sites are spacious." Many cabin stays include proximity to the Mist Trail and Mirror Lake paths.

Explore local swimming spots: High Sierra RV Park offers creek access that many guests enjoy. According to one review, "The creek, waterfalls & rope swing over the swimming hole was unbelievable!! The kids enjoyed the rope swing while the mom enjoyed the walk back to the falls & thru the shallow waters." Swimming options range from shallow creek wading to deeper natural pools.

Visit Bass Lake recreation area: Bass Lake at Yosemite RV Resort is located near this popular destination. A visitor commented, "Has a pool, game room very run down, bathrooms and showers decent, sites a bit to close together for our liking but being close to the lake and Yosemite was a bonus." The lake offers fishing, boating, and swimming during summer months.

What campers like

Winter cabin options: Some accommodations maintain year-round operations. At Yosemite RV Resort, guests appreciate the extended season: "Nice place- but much warmer than the high elevation of the park. Otherwise in cooler weather this place is well designed and amazing pool." Heated cabins provide comfortable overnight stays even during snowy conditions.

River proximity: Many cabin campers value waterfront locations. One review of Thousand Trails Yosemite Lakes states, "Beautiful campground with even more amazing staff. It is First come first serve (after a reservation) so get there early. We lucked out with a pretty big and shaded riverfront spot (site 73) and could not have been happier."

Community amenities: Larger properties offer social gathering spots. According to a visitor at Bass Lake RV Resort, "We booked this last minute over the phone, we were very impressed with the spot, next to the pool, clubhouse, fire pit. I do see that other spots are more crowded but overall the property is gorgeous and its a great fun family friendly place."

What you should know

Reservation timing: Securing cabin accommodations requires advance planning. For Lower Pines Campground, one visitor advises, "If you can get a site here, take it. You won't regret it." Booking windows typically open 6 months ahead for peak summer dates.

Wi-Fi limitations: Internet connectivity varies significantly between properties. A reviewer at Thousand Trails Yosemite Lakes noted, "Typical small sites, narrow roads. But worst of all lousy wireless and no cell service. Saving grace it's in a beautiful area." Some resorts offer paid Wi-Fi access while others have no service.

Quiet hours enforcement: Most cabin camping facilities maintain strict noise policies. One Lower Pines guest mentioned, "Quiet hours are from 1000-0600, and we had to remind our neighbor campers who came back drunk at midnight to shut it, but that seems to be more the normal than abnormal these days."

Tips for camping with families

Kid-friendly activities: Indian Flat RV Park offers family amenities that enhance stays. One visitor shared, "The Cedar Lodge next door has an indoor and outdoor pool available for the RV campers to use. The outdoor pool was closed for the season, but the indoor pool was heated to at least 100 degrees so it made our morning swimming delightful."

Choose sites away from bathrooms: Location within campgrounds affects noise levels. A High Sierra RV Park camper advised, "The campsite was 39 and it was right next to the bathroom. To leave with a 26' travel trailer I had to pull out and back down another road just to exit the park." Request cabins positioned away from high-traffic areas.

Educational opportunities: Several properties offer ranger programs. A camper at Lower Pines mentioned, "There is an amphitheater in the campground with ranger talks also." These programs typically run from June through August and cover topics from wildlife to geology.

Tips from RVers

Site selection considerations: High Sierra RV Park visitors recommend choosing spots carefully. According to one review, "We stayed in the premium sites at this camp ground. Loved the hosts. They were wonderful to work with and very accommodating. The premium sites include full hook-ups — water, electric and sewer. We were in site 43."

Leveling challenges: Some properties present terrain difficulties. A visitor warned, "Our spot was also very hard to try and level our trailer. We never did quite get it leveled the way we would've liked." Bring additional leveling blocks when staying in mountain cabin camping areas near Fish Camp.

Transportation alternatives: Public transit options can simplify Yosemite visits. One Indian Flat RV Park guest shared, "The YART bus (that shuttles you into the park) stops at the hotel next door. It doesn't run frequently, and we had to catch it really early (7 am), but it was $20 for a family of four (round trip), and that included admission to the park."
