10/10 would recommend
10/10 would recommend and would stay here again.
Super convenient location, just 10 min outside of Yosemite’s entrance.
Jim’s campsite is thoughtful with the table, chairs, metal fire pit, trash, bear locker and canopy. Site 1 even had an outdoor shower!
There is also a quick general store and gas station nearby.
The road is close, but it did not bother us. Car sounds were pretty tame at night, and far and few during our stay in October.
Some mosquitos at dusk but manageable. Keep tent doors zipped up and a small campfire will help deter some.
Be mindful that there are some foxtail plants in the area if you have pets/dogs.

We loved this campsite! The location was super convenient with the gas station across the street and a short drive to the gates of Yosemite. The road and Valero are barely visible from the site and we didn’t mind heating cars passing. The outdoor shower was a must after a long day of hiking and the highlight of the weekend. We didn’t realize the spigot was connected to a jug of water, but we just ran across the street and picked up more water for washing dishes. Highly recommend also getting a citronella candle for the bugs as they swarm when you start cooking. Will definitely being staying again in the future!!

Close to Yosemite Big Oak Flat entrance and right across the street from a gas station, but was still very private. Had a port a potty and a hot outdoor shower that was awesome after hiking all day. Bear box provided. Perfect spot to stay if you don’t want to deal with the reservation hassle or other people camping right on top of you. Will stay again. 5 stars!

LOVED this spot! So close to Yosemite’s gate you really can’t go wrong. Clean area, the lights around the campsite was an awesome touch. My dogs and I loved it!

Great Spot
Great little spot! Toilet, power AND a shower. Convenient, clean and only 10-ish minutes from Yosemite. Great communication and plenty of space. Cool string lights hanging and has a bear box with picnic table. Flat-ish, just bring some leveling blocks and you’re good. Will stay again when given the opportunity.
