Contrary to other reviews, I found the office staff to be pleasant and helpful. Kim was wonderful in figuring out how we could fit in what they had left when I called from the road after a long, hot day of driving. Because it was so late in the day, we could only camp in the group tent area - my camper van fit just fine and level, and my travel partner was able to set up his tent albeit a slopey grass area. You get one shower token to use (per person, per paid day) - shower fast because in literally 5 minutes, you'll get freezing cold water with no warning. The bathhouse was clean and everything worked. The center of the park is packed tight with trailers, Class Cs and As. If I were to stay there again, I'd use sites 39-44 as they have lots of breathing space with views to Mono Lake as well as hook ups it you need them. Pets allowed but DO keep your pooch leashed at all times or you'll get a stealthy visit from the owner who will sternly, but politely, remind you why they are strict about pets on leash (oops). There's a nice walking path through the sage with great views for you and your furbaby - please pick up your pet's poo - most people did so don't be that one... I found all the campers to be respectful, warm and friendly despite our need to stay socially distant and wear masks.The owner also walks the entire park frequently to make sure everything is kosher for all - including at 4:30am. I appreciated their diligence in keeping things safe and clean for their campers.

I gave this location 1 star because the facilities are nice for many reasons. However, my experience was poor. The staff was rude, curt and cold. Their website is vague and missing a lot of information. When I emailed questions, even though they did answer them, it seemed as if I was a burden. Upon checking in the next morning, the man did not acknowledge me NOR look at me and the woman seemed annoyed at my presence. It was as if they were angry I was even there. They only take cash payments. I was so put off by their treatment of me, we found another site for two nights. They refused to refund us even though they were renting our already paid spot to additional guests - so, they were charging two guests for the site when only one was staying there. They put my reservation and night check-in envelope in the wrong name. It is not possible to get someone to communicate with outside of 8am-5pm. They require full payment up front or threaten to give your space away and refuse refunds. They demanded to have their shower tokens back even though they would not refund me for two nights I did not stay there and rented my already paid spot out to other guests. So, we stayed at another campground and went back to take our showers there and refill our water containers in the process. I threw the other remaining tokens in the trash. I have never been treated this way at any establishment. The office staff are just angry at life and want to make others miserable in the process.

Price was not bad, but you must have buy tokens to use showers from the office, and office is only open from 8-5. “Dog run” is a trail leading into the brush. Place is clean, some sites are very close together, some not. Tent sites are on a slope, so I would not recommend tent camping. RV sites are fairly level. Note- they only take cash or check.

My second stay here and just as delightful as 8 years ago. Would have given it 5 stars, but the showers could use a bit of a facelift. But the vibe at the RV Park is wonderful, the hosts are gracious, and you can't beat the location for checking out cool hiking around Yosemite. Nice laundry facility, good hot showers. My rate was for Water and Electric only.
