Mixed feelings. I did have a good time cooking campfire dinners at Autocamp but the rest about this place is just a disappointment. 1. They’re clearly short staffed on not only housekeeping but also general maintenance and front desk staff. There is always a long waiting line at their front desk. We waited 15 minutes in line for checking-in and another 65 minutes to get our room ready, not to mention we arrived at 5:30pm well past their normal check-in time of 4pm. 2. No cellular signal at the site that really frustrates me a lot. 3. They cramp in too many camp cars, the amount of smoke from campfires during dinner time is unbearable. 4. Unfriendly staff. The major reason why I won’t be staying at this place again in the future. 5. Don’t expect a clean autocamp waiting for you, bring your own towels and food. The air filter is so dirty that we won’t even dare to turn on the thermostat. This place charges 5 stars resort kind of price on food and other things that you need for campfire cooking. $18 s’more is just hard for me to forget. 6. Bring flash light! They did provide electric camp lantern that they never care to charge it and they don’t have spared ones. How ridiculous. 7. My advice: Turn around and look for other place to stay.

Disappointed at cleanliness of the camp van

Unfortunately, we didn’t have good experience at AutoCamp. We we were excited to go glamping, but just not with AutoCamp Yosemite again. We arrived at auto camp at around 5pm and didn’t get a room until 6:48pm. We were already very tired from traveling and wanted to rest, but auto camp couldn’t accommodate that which is a disappointment. The staff member didn’t apologize but gave the attitude made the experience far worse. The entire property I feel did not maintain well. The lake, the grass, the ground. The camp van has dirty air fan filter, the shower floor is slippery and moldy, the windows and screens are filthy, the faucets can be cleaned with brush and cleaner. Things were broken such as the bathroom fan and the outdoor lamp. There were stains on bed sheets and towel, and I don’t see bedsheet folding mark on them. I had skin rush staying here. The convenient store has everything but was expensive. The front desk always have long line so prepare to wait. You have to walk to the lobby and stay in line for minutes if you need something. The camp ground is smoky and smell like burning in the evening due to everyone making fires. I wish AutoCamp can make more effort in cleaning each van, and improve the camp ground such as mulching and trimming the plants so the property looks better. Possible pave the road so it’s easier for those who stay upper hill to safely get to their van. And maybe train the front desk members to be more polite.

Looks pretty/ no maintenance

We just came back from 2 nights at the autocamp. Overall the experience was OK, but the lack of maintenance for those of us that stay in tents was obvious and disappointing. The AC in the tent didn't cool anything. The problem was the filter in the back of the unit was totally clogged with dust and the unit was covered in dirt. We cooked on the fire pit the first night and used the cutting board, knife and tongs. We went to the front desk to ask what we should do with the dirty items. The front desk said someone would come and get them. They were still there when we checked out this morning, two days later. The shower/bathroom facilities are gross. The toilet rooms have feces and dirt on the walls, mold and crud on the floor. The showers are moldy, have faulty faucets, no toiletries, empty bottles, Many of the bottles at the sinks are empty. I don't think we will stay with you again nor recommend this to anyone.

This place is a JOKE

Where do I even BEGIN. if your thinking of a relaxing nature experience , forget about it!it’s like Disneyland - full of loud kids that ruin the experience of being in the wilderness and trying to disconnect from city life . The amount of noise pollution from the kids is awful. I counted 20 kids in the pool. The facilities and customer service are basic.What you see on the website is NOT what it looks like in person , they are extremely deceiving. The airstreams are all packed together , zero privacy , maybe 20ft apart. the internet was down the first day , and second day so getting any work done was impossible. The second day no electricity and no water ! Overall it should be marketed for families not For adults without children. EXTREMELY UNDERSTAFFED ! It’s a shame because the website makes it look so peaceful and enjoying . They don’t show the crowded airstreams nor a single child or family in the pictures. Hospitality is a zero ! To get a refund was like pulling teeth! This place is not for couples seeking a relaxing nature experience nor does it meet the standards of what they are charging. I’ve stayed at under canvas and it’s a better choice.

We LOVE the Autocamp concept - and Autocamp Yosemite was just brilliant. Travelling as a family of 5 from the UK we wanted to get the camping experience - but without the hassle and kit!! It’s that and more. The Airstreams are brilliantly and cleverly kitted out with a place for everything and great spaces outdoors for eating / cooking / fires etc…. It’s the best bits of camping without the worst and you’ll leave wishing all camping was like this!! Staff are fantastic and the pool is just what you need after a day exploring the park. We did some rafting down the Merced which was 5 minutes from the lodge and highly recommend too. A brilliant afternoon out for the whole family. We had 2 Airstreams for 5 people - 2 adults and 3 children 9, 13 and 16. Kids in 1. Adults in the other.
