Yosemite Creek - Yosemite National Park Camping Area

Summary

The campground offers stunning views of surrounding mountains and forests. Nearby points of interest include the Yosemite Valley, Half Dome, and Glacier Point. Campground amenities include picnic tables, fire rings, and vault toilets. There are 75 campsites available, making it a relatively small camping area compared to others in the park.

An interesting fact about Yosemite Creek is that it is named after the creek that runs through the area, which was originally called "Helena Creek" until 1890 when it was renamed to match the name of the area. The best time of year to visit Yosemite Creek is from June to September when the weather is pleasant and the average temperature ranges from 60-80 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and drops to around 40 degrees Fahrenheit at night. However, visitors should be aware that the campground can get busy during peak season, so it's recommended to arrive early in the morning to secure a spot.
