Van Haven Dispersed Site Yosemite

We stayed for two nights and it was amazing. If you keep going you will get to a spot with 360° views. Make sure you drive slowly on the way in past the houses because of all the dust. The only downside is that someone decided to smash glass all over the campfire, so my dog had to have his boots on the whole time.

Amazing spot love it, it’s a bit of a drive for a car but amazing view and very peaceful

This site is isolated, but disappointing. There is a single pull-in site only sufficient for a van with decent clearance. There are no flat spots- none. I was able to sort-of get level by driving up on a mound of dirt - even then the van is a bit tilted. The road is paved until the last 1/2 mile and the last few hundred feet is very steep, but a passable forest road. There are many houses along the road up until the very steep part. This is not an ideal spot, but it is viable for a quiet respite. Verizon is 1 to 2 bars. No services of any kind- it really is in the forest- and is quite a drive to Groveland which has everything one needs.

Red Cloud Rd offers few viable camping sites. The road becomes increasingly rough and eroded, with deep ruts and drainages. 4WD or AWD is necessary. Site offers scenic views, unobstructed night sky, and interesting exploration.
