Yosemite Pines RV Resort and Family Lodging, Groveland CA

THE BEST PLACE EVER, I'd totally live here if I could. The staff is awesome, 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Loved this spot for the kids. Tent sites. Rv sites. Cabins. Retro trailers. Yurts. Playgrounds nature trail. Seasonal pool and deli. Close to fun things to do if you are up for a drive. Don't feel like driving? Enjoy the grounds because there is plenty to do.

We booked the premium cabin which was fully stocked all we had to bring was food and drinks. The cabins were all very cute and spacious inside. The resort has a general store with everything you’ll need, also has a park for your kids, a petting farm with goats, donkeys, chickens, rabbits, ducks and llamas! During the summer they also have a deli and family activities as well. It’s about a hour and half away from Yosemite valley too. We will definitely be coming back here. All of the staff was amazing, super nice and friendly too!

Nice resort, friendly staff, lots of wildlife. Went during the off season so super quiet. Cell service wasn’t great, but it’s close to the cute town of Groveland for basic supplies and cell service. About an hour from Yosemite Village, and thirty minutes to the park entrance. Kids loved the petting farm!

Great family campground, wished we could stayed longer. Has a petting zoo and play ground for the kids, hour outside of the Yosemite. They have propane and laundry available.

Beautiful place to stay.
Even great for kids. Especially my kids enjoyed 'Petting farm' a lot. It may be also wonderful to use their facilities such as swimming pool, valley ball court, etc during summer.
Almost no network (a bit of 3G) and they have wifi service at some dollars but this can't be a complaint at a CAMPING site in the middle of forest.

This establishment is in dire need of better trained management and support staff. Upon checking in with my 38 foot motorhome, I was assigned a campsite that has a 10% incline which is not fitting for the size of my motorhome. The park staff were fully aware of the size of my rig as my reservation contained the length with my special request for a flat camp site. So please stress the importance of requiring a somewhat level site for the larger RV's. This RV "Resort" shall have properly functioning restroom and showering facilities that shall be maintained at least twice daily. Additionally, I wish the staff possessed an ounce of compassion for their workplace as it is in dire need of repair and updates. Many neighboring campers have called this a "trailer park" and I somewhat agree. Refer to some images taken from my trip at the end of September of 2021. I had to recall the date of my last tetanus booster shot prior to entering a shower stall (male showers).

Very cold in November but quiet and serene. Bring your own towels. Bathrooms are clean and heated which is so nice after walking in the cold from your cabin. They also have a laundromat on site so you can stay longer and not worry about clothing running out.

Ok place to camp, but the if you use the internet service get ready for a flood of spam emails. You have to create an account and they sell your info and you’re inbox will be closed with spam.

The cabin was filthy.the bathroom had mold on the shower curtain and floor.and there were dishes in the cabinet.how were they supposed to clean them without a dishwasher?

We rented a cute little cabin here in May. Nothing fancy or super comfortable, but it had a certain charm to it that made my first trip to Yosemite very memorable.

Really nice. Logan was amazing. Clean bathrooms. There is no phone reception or internet and when we came up the cell tower was out so we couldn't make calls or receive calls. We had to go to Groveland to use our phones. Besides that is was a nice experience.

Very rough campground. Needs lots of reparations. Some sites extremely unlevel. Bathrooms were dirty with toilet paper in the holes where the locks should have been. Showers were dirty no benches and some had no hooks. Laundry room was dirty. The only plus was water was hot in the showers.

Site OK. Have to pay extra for wi fi (or one hour free). About 45 minutes from Yosemite Valley.
Go to Big Oak Flat for gas; Groceries very expensive.

Came here tent camping, our friends had RVs so we paid RV rates so we could all stay next to others and we specified this during booking. When we showed up the keeper was rude and placed us all far away from each other and the park was partially full we could have all stayed together but she wouldn’t listen, I won’t be coming back here in a while.

I am not one to write reviews, but this review is worth my time. If you love the smell of raw sewage, this is the place for you. The frequent wafts of sewage can be smelled while enjoying their very brisk pool, and while at your campsite.

It seems like their are some nice sites, but good luck trying to get into one even when the park is maybe a quarter full. We specifically asked to move sites after we were placed up the hill in a tiny site right next to a cabin. We explained that we would happily pay the difference if the specific sites we inquired about were considered premium sites. We were told by the front desk that they would speak to the manager, and let us know. After several hours, we hadn’t heard anything, so we went back to inquire. We were told that it was not possible to move, because the other sites were not available. Quite ironically, none of those sites ever filled up during our 5 day/4 night stay.

The internet was down throughout our stay, and there was no cellphone service. This wasn’t an issue until our truck broke down, and we had no means of obtaining information on repair shops/towing service. My husband tried to obtain information from the front office. He was given one phone number, and directed to the pay phone outside. He asked if they had the ability to call the shop, and he was told that their phones were down. He went outside to use the pay phone to call the shop, and they were not able to get us in for a week. He went back inside to the office to try to get more information, and low and behold an office person was talking on the landline that was supposedly not working. The general vibe was you are on your own, and they were not going to provide any information beyond that one number. The woman who did provide the number was even quite rude about the entire situation.

The only redeeming quality about this place is the petting zoo, and the kind couple that cares for the animals. They were they only people willing to offer any type of meaningful assistance. They loaned us a battery charger, and were willing to go into town to pick up my husband from another shop that was able to help us if the truck wasn’t repaired that same day. The office suggested he ride his beach cruiser back the 2.5 miles on the highway with no shoulder and several hills. My husband is a California Triple Crown Double Century Cyclist, and he was even surprised that this is what was recommended. The kind couple at the petting zoo even mentioned how unsafe that would be. Thankfully the truck was able to be repaired.

We camp a lot, but this is not place we will stay again. We do not recommend this park. If you want to go to Yosemite, pick a different RV park or stay in the actual park.
