About Lost Claim

Overview

Lost Claim attracts families and friends with its convenient location, just 15 miles from the northwest Yosemite National Park boundary in northern California. Deemed as an ideal base camp, visitors can explore not only Yosemite, but also the fantastic wilderness areas of the Stanislaus National Forest. Pets are welcome, but must be compliant with Tuolumne County leash laws.

Recreation

Hike the Little Golden Forest Trail, a half-mile interpretive loop with the option for a longer two-mile loop. A short drive takes visitors to the Tuolumne River for wading and fishing.

Facilities

The 10 camping sites are all suited for tents. Sites 1, 7, and 8 would also accommodate tent trailers. The roads and spurs are native surface or gravel. Each site has a picnic table, food storage box and campfire ring. Drinking water and vault toilets are available.

Natural Features

At 3,100 feet in elevation, the tranquil campground sits in a mixed conifer forest with ample shade at each campsite. Nearby is the Tuolumne River, which flows for 150 miles from the central Sierra Nevadas to the San Joaquin River.

Nearby Attractions

Take a scenic drive through Yosemite and explore its legendary waterfalls. Enjoy world class fishing on the Tuolumne River or at one of the many lakes in this western Sierra Nevada location. Go hiking on one of the many nearby trails. The town of Groveland boasts many shopping and tourist activities; check with the Tuolumne County Visitors Bureau for more information.

FAQ

How do I get a reservation at Lost Claim?

Reservations for Lost Claim are made through Recreation.gov. The current snapshot shows substantial availability: 80 of 80 tracked site-nights are open (100%), though availability can change. Campsite Sniper has also detected 14 site openings here in the last 90 days, so further dates may appear. Pick a site on the map to see its calendar, or set a free Campsite Sniper alert. You complete the reservation yourself on Recreation.gov.

Does Campsite Sniper book this campground for me?

No. Campsite Sniper sends alerts and direct Recreation.gov links. It never books, pays for, holds, hoards, or resells reservations.

How current is this availability data?

Campsite Sniper re-checks public Recreation.gov availability for this facility every hour and republishes whenever anything changes. This facility's data last changed at Nov 2, 2026 19:20 UTC; an older timestamp means nothing has changed since that time, not that checking stopped. Always confirm final availability on Recreation.gov when you book.

How often do new openings appear at Lost Claim?

Campsite Sniper detected 14 site-date openings here over the last 90 days, none in the last 7. A free alert watches around the clock and pings you the moment one appears.

Can I get a multi-night stay at Lost Claim?

10 three-night openings are showing, counting only runs where the SAME site is free for all three nights. The soonest starts Apr 26, 2027 at site 01. Confirm and book on Recreation.gov.

Which sites at Lost Claim fit a 35-foot RV?

No RV-analyzable site here has a recorded maximum of 35 ft or more; the longest recorded is 15 ft. 3 of those 10 sites have a recorded maximum length and 7 do not; they are not counted as fitting.

Which month has the most availability at Lost Claim?

April 2027, with 50 open site-nights in the current snapshot of 50.

When is the next open date at Lost Claim?

Campsite Sniper cannot answer that from the current snapshot. The availability data held for Lost Claim begins Apr 26, 2027 — about 175 days after this snapshot was taken, so any earlier dates are outside what Campsite Sniper is tracking here rather than known to be unavailable. Check Recreation.gov for dates before Apr 26, 2027.
