    Trash on ground between sites
    Chris A.

    Disappointing Stay at Mono Vista RV Park - Not Worth the Hassle My husband and I visited Yosemite for the first time in July 2025, staying for eight days to celebrate his birthday. We were excited about the trip, but our experience at this RV park left much to be desired. While the location near Yosemite is a plus, the park's management, facilities, and overall atmosphere made it an uncomfortable and somewhat frustrating stay. We won't be returning. Upon arrival, we were informed that the facility is cash-only--no credit or debit cards accepted. This wasn't an issue for us since we carry cash on vacations, but it's something potential visitors should know in advance, especially if you prefer tracking expenses through your bank statements. Check-in was straight-forward but lacked warmth. The older woman at the office was polite enough to get us settled and process our full cash payment, but she wasn't particularly welcoming. Again, not a huge deal but a welcome to the park, add in a few suggestions of where to eat locally etc would be nice. The sites themselves are quite small, some are downright tiny, which can feel cramped for larger RVs like our fifth wheel. The grounds are fairly well-maintained, though the picnic tables are dated and peeling paint, and we noticed scattered trash in a few spots. Given the bear activity in the area, the park enforces a reasonable no-food-left-out policy, which we appreciated. However, we observed tent campers disregarding this by leaving items out periodically during their stay. Interestingly, part of the park features permanent single-wide trailer homes, adding a unique and somewhat mismatched vibe. Camp sites are 30 amp so bring your converter cords. What particularly soured our experience was the cliquey, unwelcoming atmosphere among some regulars and staff. On one occasion, a neighboring camper (whom I'll call "Mrs. Karen") aggressively confronted the family in the site between us over their truck parking slightly askew, claiming the bumper obstructed her view from her pop-up tent. She berated them in front of their two young children and threatened to involve the office. Within moments, a staff member sped over in a golf cart, yelling accusations without even asking or hearing the full story. The man was just searching for his keys to adjust the truck, but the staffer immediately threatened eviction. It was rude, unprofessional, and made many of us uncomfortable. "Mrs. Karen" then sent someone from her group to confront us, asking if we had a problem--even though it had nothing to do with our camping site. Thankfully, most other campers were friendly and polite; one even offered the affected family an alternative parking spot in his space. But incidents like this highlighted what seems to possibly be favoritism toward regulars or friends. This bias became evident again on our fourth day when the same golf cart staffer demanded we move our truck (parked right next to our camper) to make room for a "dry camper." We complied immediately, relocating to the front of our site, which jutted into the roadway a bit. But no dry camper ever arrived--instead, a regular from another RV parked his personal truck there and left it for the rest of our stay. It felt like we were possibly somewhat displaced to accommodate others. The park's overall condition is fair. Their cleaning practice is simple, it doesn't seem to be regular deep cleaning. The sprinkler system is oddly makeshift, with above-ground hoses that staff attach and activate sporadically. This often results in water spraying into sites, onto vehicles, or belongings. Just be prepared to possibly move things around. The bathrooms were disappointing. Outdated lighting with several bulbs out, stained and old toilet seats, and signs of long-deferred maintenance. The showers were neglected and in disrepair, making them unappealing to use. Worse, windows above each toilet stall are left open for ventilation, but they're right next to a walking path where passersby can easily look in which could be a major privacy issue. The laundry room was relatively tidy, but at least two washers were out of order, and we spotted discarded underwear on a windowsill that should have been cleared away. On a neutral note, the area is quite windy, which isn't the park's fault but can make outdoor activities like card games challenging (though it's pleasant for reading). In summary, this RV park falls short in hospitality, maintenance, and fairness. There are plenty of other friendly, well-run options outside of Yosemite with polite staff and perhaps better facilities. We had high hopes for a relaxing birthday getaway, but this wasn't it. Safe travels to fellow campers--choose wisely!

    We had a great experience. We booked 2 nights but our trip was delayed so we showed up on the 2nd night. I left a voicemail giving them a heads up. When I went to check out the office lady was very kind and didn't charge us for the 1st night. Some of the spaces are a bit narrow, but the grounds are tidy and well kept. We'll be staying with them again.

    Great park. Hosts were wonderful and amenities met our needs. Had a walking path for dogs next to a dog area. A small kids play area. It has a nice big mountain nearby and short drive to all the lakes.

    Mono vista rv park located very close to Mono lake in Lee Vining Ca is a nice place to stay. Very convenient to drive into Yosemite from and if you are in the right spots you get a beautiful view of Mono Lake. Yes it's true they don't accept credit cards. Cash or check only. Most of the sites have a shade tree and patch of grass. When dealing with the office help try to talk to the older woman she's very pleasant and helpful. The younger one was either having a bad day or needs more customer service training. Be sure you get your shower tokens when checking in!

    This campground was so exceptional that we extended our stay. The grounds were well maintained with nice green grass and plenty of trees. The management spaced out the guests, but even the couple of days with a neighbor in the space next to us we never felt cramped. The staff worked every day keeping the facility nice. My wife and I were most impressed with how clean the bathroom and shower areas were. I've stayed in hotels that were not as clean. Okay, it can't be perfect, so here it is. We didn't see a bear, but he left us a present at the back of the trailer. And no, I didn't check to see what he'd been eating. Thanks to all at Mono Vista. We had a great vacation with Mono Vista as our home base. There is so much beauty in the Sierras. My original post was under a SM, which is not me. Now we're good and it gives me a chance to add a positive note, the store and laundry facilities tied everything together. Thanks again, Sean M.

    I had the pleasure of staying here one night in my little Prius. After backpacking in Mammoth Lakes for a few days I had to drive back to the Bay Area on the 120 but didn't want to do it in the dark. I just needed a shower and a place to sleep in my car. This place was perfect. It's clean and safe. Can't beet the price. For $27 I got a nice grassy spot where if I wanted I could set up my tent, a table and lil grill to BBQ and 2 tokens for a hot shower that you can take anytime. ( Public showers are only 9-5pm) It has a great view of the mountains. I would definitely stay there again.

    Great place to relax!

    This place was fantastic! Very reasonable rates, lovely restrooms and showers. Laundry room. It's right across the street from the lake, and within distance of a very short walk to all the shops/restaurants in town. We also saw in the office, there is a large DVD collection to rent/borrow. Everything was very quiet at night. Our camping neighbors were also quite friendly!

    LOVED this place. Nice grassy area for tent camping and nice shady RV sites. Gift shop / store. Very friendly staff. BBQ stands. Hot showers and laundry room. The facilities and grounds were clean and taken care of. The only thing I can say bad about this place was no campfires. I would definitely stay here again.

    Beautiful setting. Grass at sites. Shows pride of ownership. Owners are there everyday caring for the RV park. Views of Mono Lake.

    WONDERFUL little RV Park just steps from Gull lake and a 10 minute walk over to June Lake Marina!…read moreVery clean- lots of gravel... the camp host Nando is the best! And his wife alongside him as well as their little Frenchie Nala! A very dog friendly RV park too! Nando is Super friendly and attentive! Truly desires the guests to be happy and goes above and beyond to make sure your needs are met! They have a new spa area, 2 beautiful 1 person bathrooms w/shower, a comfortable community clubhouse with couch, chairs huge tv, coffee, creamers, milk, seltzers-all complimentary! Each site has newer firepits and they sell firewood... small, tidy, perfect!! While there's a long list of rules, the park is so chill - not uptight like so many others. It's all about common sense and courtesy... Also, just a five minute walk to the Local Scoop ice cream, the Deli, the general store and June Lake Brewing, where you'll find the La Parrilla food truck, which is amazing! There are a couple other restaurants as well, but most of them are closed Sunday through Tuesday, which is a bummer. None are dog friendly unless a service animal (but not the general store or the balanced rock cantina restaurant-no dogs PERIOD) June Lake Marina offers boat rentals but Gull lake is a little cheaper and much prettier! We checked out a couple other rv campgrounds and this one by far exceeds them all! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! No need to go anywhere else!

    Stayed last year and had a pleasant time…read more Reason for the one star review now is I have called numerous times to try and cancel a future reservation and the number is not answered, and voice mail if full. Over a period of several months I have sent numerous emails, all are unanswered. I have called the company used to schedule the sites and they have not been able to get on contact with the owner. Just trying to cancel a reservation but there is no response from the campground. Procedee with caution with this campground...

    This is a review of the general store and marina area. We did not stay in the campground here…read more I've been following Twin Lakes Resort on social media for sometime now due to the epic community and mountain culture they've cultivated here over the years. It's a place with real roots. Families make traditions of coming here and I can see why. Many of the lakes in the Sierra are hard to access due to limited development and parking, but Twin Lakes has struck the right balance offering opportunities for day trippers and campers the like. Coming up from the valley below the lakes, I never imagined there'd be quite the lively "town center" we came upon. The general store is clearly a central gathering place where fish stories are swapped and visitors can stock up on basics, grab a bite or a bloody marry, and snag all the local intel and tackle they'll need to catch a big one in the waters directly across the street. Unlike the other small stores I visited, the staff here was GOLD! They were incredibly friendly, full of info, engaging and welcoming too! Our kids got to participate in a scavenger hunt and after finishing it got to choose rad prizes. The merchandise in the store is also AMAZING! I decided I'd buy a hat or shirt after I get my first big trout out of the lakes. They also offer boat rentals at the marina with everything from kayaks and SUP to larger pontoon boats. We had hoped to rent a pontoon for the day but got there a bit later in the day and missed out. Apparently you can reserve online (I must've missed the link when looking) and the rates are super reasonable (less than $300 for the day on a pontoon for up to 8). It kind of worked out because the wind kicked up and that would've likely ended our day on the water, but I'd love to do a half day starting in the morning! This isn't a secret of any kind, but it's somewhere more folks from the Reno area need to explore.

    At first I was a little taken back as it's a little way out of town…read more I was pleasantly surprised. At the beauty when you passed through those horses and all the cows absolutely stunning campsite was nice. Everybody was friendly. Can't wait to go back.
