The Yosemite Bug is a great option for those who don't mind staying outside of the park. They have a wide variety of accomodations, which includes camping, cabins, dorm rooms, and private rooms. All are cheaper and nicer than park accomodations! The staff is very friendly and the crowd very international. They also have a great restaurant and bar, and a beautiful surrounding area, right on the Merced River. Overall, a wonderful budget option for Yosemite.
