  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    This campsite offers a serene and private setting, making it a perfect spot for relaxation and exploration near Yosemite. Visitors rave about the outdoor shower and bathtub, which provide an extraordinary view and are often a highlight of the stay. Though some guests find the campsite rocky and not as close to the creek as expected, the availability of water and electric hookups adds convenience for RV campers. Some travelers noted that privacy could be an issue due to proximity to other rental properties on the site.

    Tent camped with friends, Oct 2026.

    Doesn't recommend

    This was not the site they had advertised. The bath was not private and was shared AND VISIBLE FROM THE OWNERS' LIVING ROOM!! WTF. THE bath also DIDN'T HAVE ANY HOT WATER. Lastly, there were no swimming holes. ABSOLUTELY NO SWIMMING POOLS. I booked this for my girlfriend's birthday for a luxurious campsite for us to celebrate together with the promised swimming holes and private bath. We ended up leaving and not coming back

    Recommends

    The land was beautiful and easily accessible by car, which made our drive to Yosemite even more enjoyable. The clawfoot tub was incredible and had beautiful views! Unfortunately, the hot water didn’t last very long and didn’t come back on before we left the next morning, but the stay was still absolutely worth it. I hope to come back when the river is flowing again. I’m sure it’s stunning in the spring!

    Tent camped, Jul 2026.

    It was okay

    Was a good campsite, very rocky, so if you are sleeping in a tent make sure to bring a sleeping pad! The shower made the entire campsite worth it! It is tucked away behind one of the air bnb’s on site, and pretty hard to find. Water was very hot and the view was amazing!
