Welcome to Yosemite Colfax Spring! Home to a basecamp for river rafting trips during the summertime, we are located 15 minutes driving distance to the entrance to Yosemite National Park. If you are staying with us between May - September and want to come rafting, ask us about our river trips! Our camp sits on a ridge with views down into the Tuolumne River Canyon. The Tuolumne River begins at 13,000 feet of elevation in the High Country of Tuolumne Meadows and provides drinking water for over 2.7 million people in San Francisco. With cedar and pine trees, manzanita bushes, and wildflowers in the spring, enjoy the Sierras' flora and fauna. Our family has been operating our river rafting company for over 50 years, the last 11 of those years being here at Colfax Spring. Conveniently located off Highway 120, we are in close proximity to swimming holes, hikes, and more. Enjoy the privacy of our campsite and getting world-class views to yourself, with all of the amenities (flushing toilets, wi-fi, showers.) Make sure to check the Yosemite National Park website for information about reservations to visit the park!

(4) Main Tuolumne Camp
We all really enjoyed our time at the campsite. We ended up renting at two sites to accommodate 4 people. We had a beautiful view of the falls for our evenings and early mornings. The site was hot but we brought a shade tent. Marty was so accommodating. We all really liked our host. The bathroom, showers and drinking water were top notch. Thank you.

(11) Tioga Camp
Beautiful campsite that has exceptionally clean showers (hot and cold water) and flushing toilets. Towels and body wash/shampoo are provided for the showers. The bathroom/shower facility is a bit of a walk down the main road, but there is a more direct but steeper path down to the facilities that is a bit narrow and has some overgrown weeds. There is also a porta potty right next to the site. We stayed at the Tioga Camp site and had spectacular views of the canyon and a waterfall directly across from us. Another great thing about this site is that it's only a 15 minute drive away from the West entrance to Yosemite National Park. If you are planning to book this site during the summer months, make sure you bring some sort of canopy or awning, as there is no shade. I would also recommend bringing some sort of bug repellent, as bugs (especially mosquitos) were running rampant at night. The host is also extremely accommodating and responsive if you have any questions or concerns. Highly recommend!

Great Stay!
The place is so accessible, the host was so kind, and the amenities were exactly what we needed. The view was just a great bonus for the times we had meals on the picnic table at our site. Plus, you’re close to the hosts rafting business and other sites so it feels private and simultaneously communal.
