Staying at AutoCamp is akin to living the American road trip dream, without sacrificing any comfort.

Activities: Explore one of 37 easy hiking trails in Yosemite National Park that are great for the whole family. Looking for a more strenuous hike? There are trails ranging from 6 to 46,030 feet in elevation gain. Yosemite visitors typically travel by car or by foot, but it’s way cooler to ride in a vintage narrow-gauge steam train. The Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad, just three miles beyond the park’s southern entrance in Fish Camp, brings to life memories of long-gone logging camps with its narrow-gauge steam train “The Logger.” They also have an on-site pool.
Spa & Fitness: There is no spa or fitness center, but with all the outdoor activities, you won’t need a fitness center. Having over 3.5 million yearly visitors from throughout the world, the iconic Yosemite National Park is known for some of the most beautiful hikes and landscapes in the United States. There are over 800 miles of trails to explore through Yosemite Valley, Tuolumne Meadows, and Wawona. Yosemite has so much to see including the sequoias, the highest waterfall in the United States, and the spectacular Half Dome and El Capitan.
Location: Yosemite National Park is in California’s Sierra Nevada mountains. It’s famed for its giant, ancient sequoia trees, and for Tunnel View, the iconic vista of towering Bridalveil Fall and the granite cliffs of El Capitan and Half Dome. In Yosemite Village are shops, restaurants, lodging, the Yosemite Museum and the Ansel Adams Gallery, with prints of the photographer’s renowned black-and-white landscapes of the area.
Closest Airport: Fresno Yosemite International Airport (FAT) is the closest airport to Yosemite, and worlds away from the mad bustle of LAX and SFO.
Children’s Programs: No. They do not have any supervised children’s programs but there’s plenty to do. In Mariposa’s pastoral, oak-covered hills, about 40 miles from Yosemite’s Arch Rock/Highway 140 entrance, Yosemite Ziplines and Adventure Ranch serves up 30-mile-per-hour thrills. Book a spot on the two-hour tour, which includes a ride in a beefed-up Polaris Ranger to the top of the zipline course, followed by a soaring descent on six separate lines.
Pet Friendly: Yes. What better way to explore the outdoors than with your furry friend by your side. Well-behaved owners may accompany their dogs for an additional fee.

Extra Info: In 1929 Wally Byam built the first Airstream. In the early 1930s Wally began to incorporate aircraft-inspired design elements into his early travel trailers, and in 1937 he released the Airstream Clipper. An American icon was born. After a brief hiatus during WWII, Airstream returned in 1948 to booming demand in post-war America. Airstream became a symbol of mid-century design, freedom, and most of all adventure.
