Overview of Under Canvas Yosemite

Opening in May 2025, Under Canvas Yosemite resides at a spectacular location in California on 85 acres of forested land. Only 10 minutes from the Big Oak Flat entrance (Highway 120 West) to Yosemite National Park, Under Canvas Yosemite offers a memorable glamping experience in the midst of California Black Oak and Ponderosa Pine forest. The camp is truly special with its exquisite location, but like all other Under Canvas locations, it seeks to minimize its impact on the environment, seeks to reduce resource use, and naturally fits in with the beautiful surroundings. Under Canvas Yosemite is open seasonally from late May to late October.

Comprised of luxury safari-style canvas tents on the 85-acre setting, Under Canvas Yosemite is ideal for couples or families desiring upscale adventure. Luxury tent options include Deluxe, Stargazer, Suite, and the El Capitan Suite. Each luxury canvas tent features a king bed with luxurious linens, a private bathroom (hot running water, shower, sink, and flushing toilet), in-tent heating, USB battery packs, and a private deck to take in the surrounding views. The Suite tent comes with an added seating area with a queen sized sofa sleeper. The Stargazer is truly special with its viewing window above the bed for stargazing at night. The El Capitan Suite provides an elevated glamping experience for families or larger groups with its two tents (Suite & Deluxe), which sleep up to six adults and are connected by a spacious private deck. Please note that there is no wireless internet access at the camp and no electrical outlets in the tents. However, tents are equipped with battery powdered fans & lanterns and USB charging packs to charge at least two cell phones. Tents are also pet-friendly (an extra fee applies).

Under Canvas Yosemite is not all about upscale canvas tents. The plentiful camp amenities include a central lobby tent with upscale lounge areas with West Elm furnishings, cafe-style dining (breakfast and dinner items), grab-n-go options throughout the day, and a selection of wines, beers, and cocktails. The camp also provides communal fire pits with complimentary nightly s'mores, complimentary camp activities, and experience coordinators to help plan adventures for the guests. Adventures abound near Under Canvas Yosemite with breathtaking scenery, waterfall vistas, stunning hikes, abundant wildlife, and world-class rock climbing just minutes away inside Yosemite National Park. If guests do not want to drive into Yosemite, a YARTS shuttle stop is just a short walk away (fee applies, and advanced reservations are required). Under Canvas Yosemite is genuinely a glamping gem for those wanting a unique and thrilling experience during their trip to Yosemite.
