Aspen Grove Campground is along beautiful Lee Vining Creek as it wends its way down from the high peaks of Yosemite's eastern boundary. Only about 10 miles from Yosemite, the campground is popular with those who failed to find campsites in Tuolumne Meadows. Aspen Grove Campground is set among pines, aspens, and willows.
Aspen Grove Campground boasts 56 campsites which can accommodate RVs, trailers, and tents. All the sites are first-come, first-served. Some creek-side sites are close together; others, such as the site by the waterfall at the western end of the campground (shown below), are well separated.
