Hidden Paradise
We spent 1 night and was hoping to spend another except for an unexpected rainstorm that brought of course rain and high winds. It is a windy area as it is in a canyon, but it had settled after the sun went down, and we were able to build a beautiful campfire. Our site was very large and it might have been a group site but there was only 1 post on the site. The vault toilet was just across from the campsite. The site was quite private and had a small walkway down to the stream where you could fit maybe 4 or 5 chairs and just enjoy the endless stream. I have T-Mobile and I had absolutely NO service.

Okay for a pinch
Stayed one night on the way to Yosemite. Nasty snow rainy day. Restrooms and showers clean. Laundry good. Park needs some TLC. Unlevel sites. Cable had terrible connection. Wifi very weak.

Wonderful Campsite!
We had never been camping as a family and I hadn’t been camping since I was a teenager. The entire camp site is huge, well maintained and just wonderful. The staff are friendly and helpful. The bathrooms are clean and well up kept. All of the campsites are spacious and free of clutter. There is easy access to the lake and marina. Overall a great visit and experience.

Revised, our second trip here.
Still 4 stars, more accurately 3.5 stars. We were under the trees this time instead of on the asphalt parking lot slab. All dirt, dirt back in site, dirt camp site accessed by a dirt road. Expect lots of dust. Bring all your campsite mats, you will need it. We backed in pretty deep to the site as not to run into our neighbor, My long shore cord had to be stretched to get to the power box. The water and sewer fine. Why these boxes are so far back almost into the next site is puzzling. Upon leaving, the access road is totally blocked by vehicles lined up for the dump station. If you want to avoid this, leave early. Not really sure if there will be a third visit.

Love this place!
We stayed here 4 nights in June 2024 and loved it. The campground is the last of the ones along Poole Power Plant Rd and is the best. There are about 16 sites. We arrived on a Sunday afternoon and had the pick of the campground. We stayed in site 3, which is right on Lee Vining Creek. There’s a fire ring, table, and bear locker. Bears are active there and one camp through the campground late on one of the nights we were there. The camp host, Cary, is the best camp host ever. He knows so much about the area, its history, great hikes and things to see, etc., and he’s a pleasure to chat with. The campground was so quiet and peaceful. We will definitely be going back.

Crab Cooker Hotsprings - Dispersed Camping
Great spot
We didn’t want to take our camper and trailer combo down the side road to the hot springs but it was only a short bike ride. We camped in a wide spot on the road, but only 2 cars went by. It was late March and we woke up to snow. There are many nooks to camp in, but some of the side roads are narrow and rutted.

Keoughs Hot Springs and Campground
A nice place to stop
$40 for site with power and water, $35 without. $10 hot spring/pool entry per a person for camping guests. $2 per a person for 6 minute showers. Depending on how bad you need a shower there are showers in the pool area for a quick rinse before and after using the pool so you can save your $2. I would recommend the pools, they are awesome. Camp sites are pretty close together but all places seem to be around here.

If you're looking for the picturesk mountain lake camping experience look no further. We stayed in a camp pop out and loved it. The employees were so friendly and careing it made our weekend. Area is clean, maintained and well loved. The bathroom facilities are clean and stocked well. Showers do cost but are worth it. Water and beach access is steps away.

Great escape campground
We camped there in our motorhome for 5 nights in the upper section. Not as "Camping" as the lower section but still very nice. We loved that we had access to most of the eastern Sierras and to the Mammoth area itself. Great E Bike riding area

Fantastic spot, clean and spacious!
Spent a four-day weekend here in the Jeffrey Pine Loop, we loved it. Hit a good weekend, this loop was sparsely occupied, which made it extra peaceful. 
Grounds are well-kept, and this facility is huge! Bathrooms near our site were clean, and water spigots are plentiful throughout.

Easy to find
Was able to easily find this spot using directions from this app. We came on Labor Day weekend, Sunday and easily found a spot. It was right off the main road so not the best spot but it was perfect for the night. The hot spring was awesome and so many stars at night!

Wishon Village RV Resort
For the glamper
If you have an RV or prefer car camping/glamp set up this is a very nice spot. Lots of RV spots, but I chose to tent camp. Two types of tent sites, platform and ground neither of which has AC/Water. I had a platform site that was next to a little stream. There is a village store on site, showers, toilets, and water. Close to Wishon Reservoir which is great for trout fishing. Courtright is a little farther but wasn't accessible at the time I went due to fallen trees blocking the road. Attended a village church service on Sunday which was the topping on the cake for me. Lots of people around the campsites but partying is prohibited. That being said if you want a little more serene camping experience there is plenty of dispersed camping in this part of the woods.

Lower Lee Vining Campground
Beautiful campsites among the aspens.
Peaceful, lots of trees and wildlife (watch out for bears). Clean, nice tables and fire pits. Great place to hang out before or after Yosemite. Be sure to check with CalTrans on highway 120 road conditions before planning to cross Tioga Pass, it still had more than 20' of snow in places when I was there in June.
Several of the campsites were closed due to danger of rising water from the Lee Vining Creek, lots of water and snow melt to deal with.
Friendly host!

Nice Location
Large enough sites. I have tried a year in advance for full hook ups. Only Water and Electrical again this year. As you can see, the sites are parking lot like. All asphalt.
Some area are sparse with trees, so you will get lots of direct light in these sections. Staff was pretty accommodating. Will be returning this August.
