3 stars to the place, is amazing!! A must if you are on the zone. PROS the place per se is worthy of your time, you may be amaze with nature. Incredibly clean despite the college ambient, spring access 24/7, rentals are accesible. CONS worst customer service, maps are wrong, is a maze once you are in, they rented my a site that was already booked I had to move my motorhome to an other site, no reimbursement no discounts no apologies. Tried to go to the city left my motothome pass on my motothome, had to get it to exit the park. They charge for each adult/kid and services daily, for us it was 80usd daily with electricity and water, they have a dump station, no cable, no wifi (just at the store you have to go there). For us family of 5, it has its cons but we had the most relaxing, fun and nicest of the times, I guess you are your own happiness. A lot of college kids but super polite and clean, our side was full of families far from the river so very quiet. Bring your kayak or paddleboard or inflatable. ****NO PETS ALLOWED**** chose electric and water sites. Quieter at nights.
Just Beautiful!! Small but really peaceful, non denominational, so everybody may feel invited and welcome. One song comes to mind "I'll say a little pray for you".
Great stop! Simple cabin with so many history in it. Worth the stop if you have and Rv you can park in the park, visit the Pony Express and have lunch in the beautiful park full of different trees. It has a playground so the kids may get tired to your next stop. Amazing little piece of history!
We got there with a 40ft RV and towing a car at 5am, great time to have more space to park, even when there is a RV parking area. Parking fee 10usd, no entrance fee. If you do the junior ranger go directly to the information office (the first one at your right) program is free. Spent most of the day there, had breakfast (7usd) very complete and then we had the famous ice cream (6usd) expensive but abundant and yummy. The rangers are great don't miss a talk or walk, and the museum is interactive and they show a 14min movie about the mountain.
Great view! We had breakfast there, plenty of picnic tables and shadows. 3usd entrance fee. Rv accessible with parking lot for rvs. Boat access if you have plenty of time. Small souvenir and food court, try the snow cones great flavors! I went with a motorhome and towing my car 60ft total, after the entrance the way becomes narrow but nothing to worry about.
The reason I'm giving 2 stars it's because crossing a bridge for 5usd/10 use round trip at a speed where you can't enjoy the ride because it's a city so busy that they dont care if you are amazed or not. You need to walk through the bridge to enjoy a little bit more but and go to the viewpoint to make the most of it. No tourism attitude, people attending there seem annoyed and the public info posted has no color so you barely may read what the info is. Beach view is also worth it and free. It's an amazing view, free and you can enjoy the beach and have a picnic there. But you can't miss the bridge, one item in my bucket list that I will not do again, highly disappointed, I was hoping to learn about it history but left disappointed if you don't pay more, you'll learn nothing.
Great place, a little to modern comparing with other parks. Went in the Yart bus from Mariposa city (be sure to check the cost, only exact cash and you can also pay with the app), PROS 12usd per adult round trip and includes the entrance fee, and in-park shuttle. Plus you will enjoy the road more more than if you drive. As is a little steep, narrow road. CONS the Yosemite Valley it's a 2hrs visit (max) maybe if you do a trail or two but with kids trails may be yo much for them, to go to other parts you need a car. Boomer! So check carefully wich parts you want to see as there is not shuttle interconnection. But worth every star! "Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul."
I was hesitant in coming here. Thinking I will see tons of concrete and steel, oh boy I was wrong!! Tip 1 you can just go to the Dam and take photos pay 10usd for parking. 2 take one of the tours (best at option) or will cost you but you will be able to enjoy and learn more of this great place. I left amaze of what we can achieve If we want to. Super hot, there are plenty of water fountains but the water is hot in most of them. Take a water bottle to see the magic of the dam as many times as you want. Great stop, took us 2hrs we saw an interactive expo, the observatory etc. We suffered the heat just for a few moments as we took a tour and it is mostly inside the dam.
A must do! We were on a 44tf very easy to park but not that easy to retake the hwy. There is a park, many RVs parked nearby let you believe that's the place and it's not a charming, after getting in the water park discovered that the real deal was a few ft away. Jumped from the cliff, your blood will reset you asap. Best jump in so many years!! Parking fee 5usd and to jump and freeze your butt 0$. 2 lifeguards on shift.
We were not sure to stop here, what a good decision! Had a blast of time, we climb, roll, walk, run all over the fresh dunes! Amazing view in the middle of a drought territory! If planned we could spent the night here bet the stargazing is breathtaking.
