Good news, campers. AutoCamp, the glamping experts from Santa Barbara and the Russian River Valley, are bringing their luxuriously shiny Airstream trailers to Yosemite in early 2019.
You can always use a fresh place to stay in Yosemite, and once you've gone Airstream, it's hard to go back to car camping. This AutoCamp property, with its fine linens and organic bath products, will be ideally situated just outside of the national park, in Mariposa, a charming town with a lot to see and do.

The new AutoCamp will be nestled on 35 acres in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and will feature a 4,000 square foot clubhouse with fire pits and a scenic roof deck. Accommodations will include 15 luxury tents, three cabin suites, 80 deluxe Airstream trailers as well as five ADA suites.
This AutoCamp is also the first to have a hot tub, fresh water pond and swimming pool — perfect for a dip off after hiking Half Dome.

There will be indoor and outdoor lounge areas peppered with hammocks and a curated marketplace with artisanal food and beverages. We're hoping for those amazing morning biscuits and coffee. Don't forget all the hiking trails nearby, and an on-site shuttle stop for easy access to Yosemite National Park.
Reservations are already filling up through the summer. Nightly rates start at $225 for the Airstreams and luxury tents tents. AutoCamp will donate $25 for each reservation booked until Nov. 1 to the Yosemite/Sequoia Resource Conservation and Development Council to support fire prevention and ecological conservation in the area affected by the fire.
