Yosemite Camping Reservations

Here is more information so that you can make your Yosemite camping reservations. There are almost 1500 campsites that are available for camping in Yosemite National Park. I get a number of people telling me that it is impossible to get Yosemite reservations. If you know a few tricks and the rules, you will succeed in getting your reservation.

Camping spots become available in one month blocks up to five months in advance. Camping spaces become available on the 15th of every month. For example, On January 15th you may make reservations for June 15th to July 15th. Another example is on May 15th you may make reservations for October 15th to November 15th.

So I you want to make your Yosemite reservations for June 1st then you need to call on December 15th. Because on December 15th reservations for May 15th through June 15th become available.

You are only allowed to reserve one campsite at a time. So if you need more than one campsite, you will have to make separate reservations.

Reservations can be made by phone or by going through websites.

You cannot just show up in the Yosemite valley and expect to find a campsite! More than likely, you will not find one. If you pitch a tent or throw down a sleeping bag without a reservation, you will asked by a park ranger to leave. There are many reasons that Yosemite California is a popular California vacation hotspot and 4 million people can't be wrong!
