No campground in Yosemite has full hookups. You'd have to camp outside the park. Also you have to enter the Yosemite reservation lottery. They make reservations available 6 months ahead of time they go within minutes. So unless you plan to go in September you are too late.
I don't know if GCNP has full hookup sites in the park, but it would be unusual for national park campgrounds if they do. But again you could camp outside the park. Ah looking at RVParkreview.com I see that they do have a full hookup CG.
I'd have to say that for activities Yosemite has a lot more to do than GC does. But getting a site in the valley is a real problem. GC has two units, North and south rims. We actually prefer the north rim since it's less crowded. We stayed at a CG at Jacobs Lake when we were there last.
At both parks staying outside the park means at least a 60-90 minute drive to get to main parts of the park.
