We had our family reunion at Outdoorsy & it was just perfect!! The variety of accommodations allowed everyone to find just what they were comfortable with whether it was camping, RV, cabins or the adorable Glamping tents! The picnic & clubhouse area by the pool was perfect for hosting our potluck dinner & fun for the adults & kids alike! We were a large group coming from many different places & the staff was amazingly accommodating & worked so hard to get us just what we wanted to make our reunion the absolute BEST!! The campground was clean & just lovely. I highly recommend Outdoorsey Bass Lake, we are already taking about our next get together!! Thank you for helping our family make wonderful memories!!

My family spent the Thanksgiving Holiday week at Outdoorsy Yosemite located at Bass Lake. We occupied two adjacent campsites. The park was clean, quiet and made for a very enjoyable stay for the whole week. RV hook ups and power from the pedestal at our camp site was excellent. We also had great WiFi at our campsite. Staff at the camp office were friendly and helpful. We had a great time and plan to return again.

We absolutely love staying in the glamping tents! Every visit is such a relaxing and memorable experience. The tents are always clean, cozy, and well set up with everything we need. It’s the perfect mix of comfort and being close to nature. We come back often because it truly feels like a little getaway where we can unwind and recharge. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and peaceful stay!

We had a bit of an issue the last night, the owner came and talked to us about it and offered a resolution. This place is really nice with heated public bathrooms. We were even allowed to move camp sites the first night due to our trailer not leveling at site 4. I am rewriting my review as I was up late with a cranky 5 yr old last night Would 100% camp here again, great location and accomendations. Thank you!

We stayed in our hired Motorhome on 2nd and 3rd December. Our 1st experience on this kind in America. Easy helpful check in plus advice on guided tour of Yosemite….( need up to date priced brochures). Lovely site although the lounge area closed for re decoration ( but a quiet time of year so not an issue). The toilets and shower area slightly untidy but nice to have heating in there. We used the laundry facilities which was reasonably priced and efficient system. Loved the site and location - would highly recommend.

Unfortunately our trip had to be cut short due to my wife becoming ill but the two days we stayed were great. The lady in the office was extremely helpful and pleasant. They have lots of amenities and the location is great. This will be our new go-to spot.

Lezlie and office staff are soooooo helpful and always accommodating!! They go above and beyond to take care of their members! I love the hospitality- lots of activities for the family and adults alike. Everything is always clean and top notch! We have been going here for over 15 years and the previous BASS LAKE RV RESORT AND Outdoorsy crew have consistently made our stay amazing! Thank you for making us a part of the Outdoorsy family!

This was our first time trip. Customer service was great. I loved the kids room, but it needs new pool sticks for the kids can use. Otherwise everything else was good.
