Curry Village

Honestly, a huge glamping site with lots of amenities! Literally one of the popular spots in Yosemite National Park! Has many restrooms, outhouses, eateries, Wi-Fi, tents to rent! We absolutely adore their little market place of food snacks, merch and more!

I stayed in cabin 4A during December, 2024. The accommodations were surprisingly bad...materially worse than a Motel 6.* The cabin was dirty and dusty; the blankets were filthy like a crime scene; the carpet was disgusting and caked with mud.* And why carpet? What a terrible choice since they know that they have not paved the walkways and the porches are poorly designed to pool water right in front of the door. So guests will drag dirt inside frequently.* There was NOT regular housekeeping, such as sheet and towel changes, vacuuming, etc. Clearly the did not wash the blankets and carpet regularly.* The drapes did not close all the way* There was no cold water in the sink...only in the bathtub.* Every 1-2 hours the toilet made a loud gurgling sound... clearly the gas release in the plumbing was broken.* The mattress was sagging and the bed was at a slight angle.* The food at the cafeteria was serviceable at best.Note that the village is located in the shady part of the valley, so it was always a bit dim and dismal.

Been coming here for nearly 20 years. In my opinion...this is where Curry Village stands today. Solely based on my experience...The good: The location. Probably the best place to get a hike started and access to river activities, a guest pool and bike rentals. CV also offers a great close up view of half dome! The village also has a pretty good amount of food options and gift shops. Public shower stalls are available to CV guests as well. Parking can be tricky during peak season so arrive early if you can. Oh!...wifi is available but it runs pretty slow during certain hours. The Not So Good:It's gotten out of control crowded and crowded with people who can't follow the basic rules of camp etiquette or common decency. Talking all loud after hours (usually drunk) and the biggest "no no" is people prepping hot meals outside their tents! You're not suppose to do that! That's why you're in a place that offers meals! Finally it's gotten way too pricy to justify the cost of a tent. It wasn't that long ago that it was reasonable. Price aside, my biggest gripe is the lack of enforcement of knuckleheads. Not even a warning. AND FINALLY...I'm a pet owner. I do love and care for my dog. That being said, if the rule says not to bring your dog unless it's a guide dog or one with a doctor's note guess what? Don't bring your dog to sleep over in a tent! Kennel them like I do or get pet sitter. The rules are there for a reason. You can bring your pet if you're just there for the day but please clean up after it. Don't be that A-hole. Hopes this helps in planning a future visit. Cheers!

Three and a half stars! No wifi in room and no cell service (AT&T) but it is where both shuttle routes go and I found it to be a convenient location. The room was old but clean and I slept great. The shower was great, again still old but had everything I needed. No tv in the room. This place is def for camping not hanging out. I liked the different eateries in Curry Village. Enjoy Yosemite! I would come back again.

Curry village was so great! It is near all the hikes, lots of parking (it gets a little crazy), the bus comes frequently, the bathrooms were pretty clean, the shower curtains smell a bit mildewy.. I got a good deal on expedia, I would come back and bring the whole fam. The front desk staff were friendly and did an excellent job explaining the rules and regulations. There wasn't service in the tents and the wifi was limited to the community center so I suggest bringing some card games, a speaker, and another light source, it gets very dark walking to the bathrooms. The safes don't work and you're provided with a couple of wool blankets and small towels, I brought my own and very glad I did. I couple more recommendations: shower caddy, snacks, hand warmers, portable charger, tissues, and an extension cord (heated tent has an outlet) if several people are staying in the tent.

I've stayed at Curry Village four times over the past 20 years, using it as a base for my hikes to Half Dome. From CV, the hike is approximately 18 miles round trip. The best thing about CV is its proximity to trailheads. The cabins do not seem to be cleaned well (floors are gritty) and the safes are not operational. There are bear boxes provided outside each cabin - bring your own padlock. The tent cabins are rustic but the beds are comfortable and overall, it's the most reasonably priced way to stay in Yosemite Valley. There are a few dining options (a taqueria, pizza place, pasta, Asian, Starbucks) but no table service. Be prepared for long lines.I would advise NOT to go in July however. There are tons of families and groups of children running around the camp yelling and screaming. My group was getting up at 4am to start our hike and the families did not respect the quiet hours of 10pm-6 am. When I went over to one of the parents and asked her to quiet the children down at 10pm, she gave me a dirty look and even made rude comments about me as I was walking away. I ended up calling the front desk to report a noise disturbance but it didn't help much. If you need a quiet place to rest, this is not the place. Bring earplugs!! I would recommend this place during the shoulder seasons, not in high season with the masses of tourists.

I'll be honest, this would not be my first choice for accommodations in the park, nor my second or even fifth choice. First off, the bathrooms and showers are absolutely disgusting. Multiple times I went inside one only to find out it was clogged, not to mention some of the flooring is questionable to where I felt like I might've fallen through it. They're supposedly cleaned multiple times a day but I highly doubt that. If you are brave enough to shower, don't forget shower shoes!!! There are a few restrooms that I like to call holy grail restrooms which have a shower and toilet by itself but due to the privacy of it all they tend to have lines. The tents themselves need major upgrading, sure you're sleeping in a heated tent in nature, things are going to be messy and dirty but you're paying for convenience, cleanliness, clean showers and bathrooms but some maintenance and upgrades would go a long way. The door and platform the tent is on is wood, as well as the floor so you might get a splinter (my fiancé did from the door) and don't forget other shoes to wear inside the tent as it's dirty, worn wood so I wouldn't recommend walking with bare feet or even socks. Also, the heaters themselves are extremely questionable. I was very nervous having it turned on. The parking is by far the worst, it's on gravel and everyone pretty much just makes their own spots so where more cars could have possibly fit, people don't care. There's huge dips and holes everywhere which makes navigating it tricky if you have a low vehicle and since Curry Village has some of the few food spots in the park and parking for nearby trails (Mirror Lake, The Mist Trail, ect) it fills up extremely quickly and even though you're staying here, good luck finding a spot. If you are staying here I'd recommend the shuttle. It can be inconvenient as it runs every 20-30 minutes and most people don't want to wait but it beats leaving and having to drive around multiple times to try to find parking, chances are you won't for a while. Also, just like a regular tent these are paper thin so snoring, babies crying, loud laughing/talking can all be heard all hours of the night. Our first night someone had actually snuck in a dog so it kept waking me up - of course they were removed the next day but it was rough. Be respectful, in any capacity! There's also no food in or around the tents, nor are scented items allowed but honestly nobody cares. I saw multiple people cooking outside the tents, carrying their food inside the tents. We even found candy inside the safe in ours and I'm sure that's not the only thing they had. It's kind of a stay here at your own risk although you might have a better chance getting an actual camp site and bringing your own tent because at least then you can cook/have a fire. They also have a guest center where you can play games, read, sit outside and enjoy nature, ect. No food or drinks are allowed inside but again, nobody cares and when it's busy and seating is limited everyone flocks here to eat. They provide WiFi but it's a National Park, it's not the best or even decent but if you need it for a few minutes to send a few texts then it'll work fine for you. I wasn't able to access it at my tent but I was on the further end so depending on where you're staying you might be able to. The only upside is that there's a store as well as multiple food spots. The Pizza Deck is a huge recommendation! The best pizza I've ever had. I will say all the staff we interacted with was extremely nice and very helpful. This is not on them, it's on management. I hope they read these reviews and take into consideration not only mine, but others opinions.

Review is of Thursday, August 15th - one night stay. The campsite accommodations were exceptionally clean. The staff at check-in were prompt, friendly, and informative. We were assigned cabin 617 which has one double bed and 3 single beds. It came with 5 clean bath towels and an exterior bear box. The village is buzzing with life and while there are longer lines for dinner and breakfast, they move quickly. Wi-fi is spotty so don't count on that working at all. Get into the spirit and stay in the moment. Curry Village is about making memories in one of the most majestic places in the world. The bathrooms were unbelievably clean! I was actually SHOCKED. The showers were pristine and the camp bathrooms had very few bits of paper on the floor (not the norm for a campground). Overall I'm very impressed with Curry Village and cannot wait to come back and make memories in the future.

It is known National Parks accommodations aren't the nicest you are instead paying for location. The good: The location you cannot beat. Walking distance to many trails! Mist trail was by far our favorite hike this trip! We enjoyed that there was food, coffee, and, beer to eat right by the village. We stayed in a cabin without a bathroom. Cabin was too be expected. Doesn't seem like too much cleaning happens of the cabin as the floors and everything were super dusty.Shared bathrooms were disgusting. Multiple days where the trash was overflowing onto the floors. I didnt even bother showering as they looked gross and we were only staying one night. Paper towels and soap were out for over 24 hours in another bathroom. I would stay again purely for the location.

I had an amazing stay and super experience. Tents were clean and bed were comfortable. As I had my 3year old I requested for some extra blankets after reserving my stay here and I did receive them. And also got my tent near to the restroom and as oer request I got the same. I only had a small request kindly include 1 or 2 Asian food items like noodles or fried rice in the near by restaurant as my 3 year old didn't like the and didn't eat anything at Dinning pavilion. At least include some options for kids meal. Kids does prefer pizza but many kids doesn't.
