Bien situé lorsqu'il n'y a plus de place de camping à l'intérieur du parc
The tent site ground was too hard….practically impossible to hammer in tent hooks. Bathrooms needed a good clean
the camp site was close to Yosemite Park, but the tent sites where old RV pads full of rocks and weeds. I was told the water was good to use but it came out red with rust, the place was a weed patch and there was buildings falling down. The tent site were very close to the main road so there was truck and car noise all night.
Overall, experience was 8/10. Great location, laundry room is a bit confusing.
Small, clean, just what we needed. Neils was very helpful, as well.
