Hotel Overview

Camp Along the River Housekeeping Camp is located along a sandy bank of the Merced River in the center of Yosemite Valley. This is the ideal location for those who like to camp outdoors without the bother of setting up a tent. Housekeeping Camp features sandy beaches for swimming and sunbathing, plus great views of Yosemite Falls and Half Dome. Housekeeping Camp is also the only lodging facility that allows guests to cook their own meals, with each unit having an outdoor fire-pit and grill. Without the Bother of Setting Up a Tent Each of the 266 units in the Housekeeping Camp area will sleep up to six people. The units consist of three concrete walls, a concrete floor, double canvas roof and a fourth curtain wall. The curtain separates the sleeping area from a covered patio that's furnished with picnic table, bear-proof food storage container and a privacy fence. Odd Name, Considering... The sleeping area has two single bunk beds, a double bed, table, chairs, mirror, electrical lights and outlets. Linens and daily housekeeping service are not provided. There are no televisions or telephones. Central restrooms and shower facilities with soap and towels are just a short walk away. Bedpacks consisting of 2 sheets, 2 blankets, and 2 pillows may be rented for $2.50 per night. Please inquire at the front desk, or when making your reservations. Onsite Amenities Camp Store - Featuring basic grocery items and camping supplies. Laundromat - Located at the Showerehouse.

Nearby Activities & Services - Restaurants, fast food, gift shops, guided tours, horseback riding, rock climbing, hiking, fishing, ranger/naturalist programs and photography supplies. Be Bear Aware! Yosemite National Park is home to hundreds of black bears. Bears have a strong sense of smell and are attracted to anything they think will lead them to human's food. To prevent unwanted contact, each tent will be assigned a private bear locker. Use this locker to store all items that have a 'scent' to them. This includes all food items, sunscreen, toothpaste, shampoo, gum and candy.
