Family Camp at Yosemite

Family Camp at Yosemite is a rustic tent-cabin camp on Cherry Lake Road near Groveland, just outside Yosemite National Park's western boundary, and has been run by the City of San Jose's Parks, Recreation and Neighborhood Services department for decades. The camp offers canvas tent cabins and electric sites along with a dining hall, recreation programs, and easy access to Yosemite's Big Oak Flat entrance. Reservations are open to the general public through the city's online booking platform, not restricted to San Jose residents, though residents and existing community-center account holders get earlier booking access and scholarship options are available for qualifying families. Added fees apply for camp enhancements and cabin electricity, so anyone planning a stay should check current rates and the booking window before reserving.
