Take 120 to Groveland, CA, then on to Yosemite Lakes RV Park. Stay for $61 a night. Just a short drive to the Park's entrance. Then a scenic drive down into the valley.
Or, buy a Thousand trails Zone pass and stay at the Thousand Trails park across the road for free and then enjoy all the TT parks for a year in California. 30 nights free. Then just $3 a night.
That's exactly what we did. We took hwy /SR59 out of Merced and took the scenic route to HWY 120(also cut about an hour off travel time) to groveland and we're staying at the Yosemite lakes RV resort. Only one section slowed us down and that was the new priest grade. Dropped the truck into 2nd gear and slowly crawled up the hill.. Truck did fantastic handling the grade. The airbags in the rear helped a huge amount. Found on my brake controller that I had it on the wrong setting (after we pulled into our camp site of course) so we will see how it does going home down the hill. We have the entire camp site to ourselves right now so it's nice...
