Susan was very prompt with communication and friendly so everything went smoothly from reservation to picking up and returning. When picking up, they gave my husband and me a thorough walk-through and showed us where everything was and how to use them properly. The RVs were clean and equipped with pretty much everything, from pots and pans to camping chairs to lanterns. They also gave good pointers on how to get into Yosemite. For example, the first time we rented from them it was raining. They advised us to take Route 140 instead of Wawona Road because Route 140 was flatter and safer. I truly appreciate them making my RV rental experience hassle free and my RV camping experience at Yosemite phenomenal. I highly recommend them and glad that I was able to support local business!

The camper we had was incredibly clean and in great shape. It is also well equipped with everything we needed and more. Pickup and return was super easy and Susan was attentive and explained everything about the rental. She even gave her mobile number in case we had questions. No issues. Perfect long weekend and it would be a fun adventure for any couple or family interested in exploring Yosemite. A great experience plus you minimize the amount of time driving this by renting close to Yosemite.

My friends and I wanted to get away for a weekend to celebrate December birthdays and the holidays…read moreand found the Manzanita Cabin on Airbnb! It was perfect because we could only stay overnight and this was the only place we could find that was flexible. Fairly close to Yosemite in case you wanted to visit and VERY close to Bass Lake! Randy, our host, communicated with me right as I booked the cabin and was always easy to get a hold of. When we arrived, he gave us a thorough tour of the cabin and instructions on how to use everything. Manzanita Cabin is absolutely thee most charming cabin I've ever stayed in!! We were a party of 12 and fit comfortable in this spacious place. The huge wood table fit us all comfortably for meals and we had a great time playing games/sitting around the wood burning fireplace in the living room as well. The kitchen was very spacious and had everything we needed in regards to pots, pans, plates, utensils, etc. The rooms were comfy and had furnaces in case we wanted a little extra warmth. There were three bathrooms all beautifully renovated! Downstairs there's even a small game room for kids and a huge garage with a washer and dryer if needed. Though a little chilly, we spent some time on the porches that wrapped around the whole house. This cozy cabin definitely stole our hearts and we cannot wait to return!! Randy has a Facebook page that you can contact him directly!

Tremendous experience, focus on safety, knowledge of the region, mountains, flora and fauna - and an amazing menu planner and cook.

I wanted to go camping…read morelast year in 2014 (I got a 6 person tent at target for like $30 it was on hella clearance) so we went there. The drive there is intense the last couple of miles past North Fork. Take a car or truck you don't mind trekking a dirt road!! The place is actual perfection. We didn't have to pay you literally pull in and pick a spot. Each campsite has 1) a place to park a car marked with a wooden post on the ground 2) a bathroom (no running water) 3) a fire pit with a grill on top 4) a place to set up a tent I wouldn't recommend a RV or for people who don't like camping. The surrounding area is beautiful tall trees, quiet and there was literally only one other family there but it's like we were all alone. The falls are very close "over the bridge" and it is beautiful. I haven't been back sorry if info isn't 100% accurate but it's the best place I've camped in a while for free Like I said not a lot of amenities just good old fashioned camping

Wow! If you have yet to experience the beauty of Huntington Lake, then you are in luck! This past…read moreweekend my wife and I along with several family members of mine, booked a last minute camping trip to Catavee! We were all so happy with the experience. Here are a few things worth mentioning... #1: Sites 13 & 24 are two of the BEST sites at this small campground. If you are going with a group, these are the 2 you want to go for. 24 is nicer than 13 but each of these are on the same loop but back up to each other. As the pictures below show (hoping I can upload the ones we have) you are surrounded by lush forestry throughout your campsite. Luckily, you still feel like you can breathe even with the many trees. These two sites are also close enough to the water spout and the CLEAN restrooms! A small parking lot is also near these two sites as well. Keep in mind that this campground is very small, so really you are close enough to the ONE restroom facility at the camp no matter where you stay. #2: There are no showers in the Huntington Lake area. Luckily for us, a family member brought up a trailer but no one really worried about showering since we were only camping a few days. #3: During the weekdays, you will probably be the ONLY ones at this campsite. This was a huge bonus. During the weekend, just about every site was full which was totally fine because you are in good distance for proper privacy from other campsites. We stayed from Sat-Tues and the last couple days were very nice yet eerie as we were the only ones in the entire campground. Definitely gave us the seclusion and mountain experience we were hoping for! Very nice peaceful break! #4: The Lake is very close to camp. (Walking distance!) But, There are about 5-10 other campgrounds in the area. Keep this in mind when you are deciding. Best thing to do is call the campground registration office! They are very very helpful! They will help you make your selection on the campground that will be best for you. One other campsite that was literally sitting on the lake that we walked through was Deer Creek, and College Campground. If we go back, which we WILL, we will probably try one of these two campgrounds even though Catavee was perfect for us. #5: Rancheria Falls-probably one of the highlights of our trip. We drove our Chevy Tahoe all the way up the dirt road (don't worry, its bumpy but even small cars can make it up), parked, and headed onto the hike. This is a beautiful and very EASY hike to do with the whole family! We had our 3 year old son, and 13 month old daughter who was worn on the back and did it with no problem. BE ADVISED-it gets cliffy as you make your way to the falls. We did not let go of our son and kept him on the hillside of the trail. We hear of too many accidents when families go on hikes, so be very careful. Also-perfect trail to pack a lunch and eat somewhere on the way. There were only a few others doing the hike that we happened to walk past. It is beautiful and was definitely a highlight for us! It was 1 hour total round trip tops. #6: There are no bears that come through the campsites in the Huntington Lake area. This was very important for being my wife's first camping trip. She slept well at night! :)

My husband and I made a recent trip to Lake Huntington and stayed at Catavee Campground at Campsite…read more#19 which was opening weekend (Memorial Day wknd end of May). We were mostly snowed in as the snowmelt had not completely gone away from winter but the picnic table, fire pit and most of an area for our tent were clear. And just enough of our driveway for our vehicle to fit. Then one of the park folks camp with a snowplow came to clear the remaining driveway the second morning we were there which was great. This site was incredible. The best features are that it is wide, so it is great for groups I would think. Multiple landings for tents available. We loved that it was shaded and bumped up against the stream/brook which vented out to peekaboo views of the lake. Campsite #21 right next door had direct views of the lake but also lent to more road traffic. Our site was very quiet. Mostly level ground. Definitely call ahead to check the weather and campsite status. We might not have gone had we known there was so much snow on the ground, but we made the best of it. Our camp host Bob was great and lent us a shovel the first night. Several park folks checked on us throughout the wknd. The bathrooms were also great. Flushable toilets. Very clean and well kept with tissue stocked throughout the weekend. My recommendations would be to bring a pop up solar shower since your only option in this area otherwise is the RV site in town for $5 per person which is completely disgusting. 6in of standing water with freezing cold water. Not worth it. Maybe also bring your own wash basins or something for dishwashing as there are no wash sinks nearby. Only a spicket at site #19 where you should not wash your dishes as it can clog the drain and attract bears and other critters. We did not see or hear any wildlife the entire time we were there. We brought our 22lb corgi daschund dog/love of our life and felt comfortable the whole time with her on a tie down stake. Definitely will go back and recommend this site to others!!

First off, I want to say that my 5-star rating only applies if you are visiting between mid-October…read moreand mid-April. During the rest of the year (April 15 to October 15), it's too hot to really enjoy camping either here, or at the Corp of Engineer's other campground at H.V. Eastman Lake a few miles to the northwest (Codorniz Recreation Area). The ideal months are probably November and March, especially if you are tent camping: not too hot in the daytime, not too cold at night. In December, January, and February, it's going to be really cold at night, the nights are really long (14 to15 hours), and those months have the greatest chance that it will be raining. If you are tent camping, I recommend that, if possible, you make a reconnaissance day trip in advance, and visit both the Hidden View and Codorniz campgrounds, to inspect the campsites for yourself. When tent camping, you really need the site, or at least the tent pad, to be as flat and level as possible. Both Codorniz and Hidden View are located in rolling hills and not all of the sites offer as much "flatness" as you might want, and it's almost impossible to really tell for sure what these sites are like from the photos on the Recreation.Gov website. Codorniz is not quite as hilly as Hidden View, and has more trees, but that said, the trees in both campgrounds are Valley oak (Quercus lobata), and these aren't really the best shade trees, having very small leaves. They are bare in the winter months and don't even start to develop leaves until late April, so in the winter and early spring, the trees all look dead and there's no shade at all. There are boat ramps and day-use/picnic areas at both Hensley and HV Eastman Lakes, but the lakea are relatively small, compared to Folsom Lake or Lake Oroville, and in the winter and early Spring months the water level is typically so low that the ramps might not even be open. Something to consider is that Hidden View campground is only 75 miles from Yosemite Valley: if you would like to camp somewhere with electric and water hookups that's reasonably priced, and make a day trip to Yosemite, Hidden View is a good choice.

+3 stars for very friendly and helpful rangers and clean bathrooms. This is a very well-kept…read morecampground. -1000 stars for visiting in July. I'm sure this is a fine place in March. In July, it's like visiting Satan's favorite county park. It's 110 degrees, the lake smells gross, the bottom is all silty and nasty, and the area where the lake has receded from its high water level is muddy and squelchy. I think this is where parking ticket cops and used car salesman go on vacation. Probably also where those guys whose job it is to deny workers comp claims spend a weekend. Only somebody professionally evil (or a rattlesnake) could love this place in July (and I have my doubts about the rattlesnake.) You could drive 30 mins further and be in the Sierras where it's 20 degrees cooler, the water is clean and clear and doesn't smell like the decaying dreams of a homeless fisherman, and the bottom of the swimming hole is granite rather than a squishy layered lasagna made of the bodies of rotting demon fish. I also really don't get these reviews that are like "the lake is gorgeous." It's a man-made reservoir set in a relatively barren landscape. Yellow hills and oak trees here and there. It looks exactly like what you might imagine "we put a bunch of water in a place only fit for cattle grazing" would look like. This spot is the epitome of "the part of California you drive through to get to somewhere else." Still, it's clean and easy to get to and I recommend it as a stopping point on a road trip if you need one - just not in the middle of summer.
