If you haven't been before, I suggest either housekeeping or curry village. That way you're dealing less with camping and giving you more time to explore the valley. Plus you can make reservations way in advance to guarantee you a spot. I dried up to half dome last August, and the valley floor was busy. I've also gone a couple times the first week of June.. Both of which have been great. If you stay in the valley it's easy to drive up to tuolomne meadows for a day. Plus you have access to all the awesome day hikes in the valley (highly recommend the half dome trip, or 4mile trail+panorama trail)
While tent camping is awesome, if you want to explore the valley it's nice to have a bed and real showers at housekeeping/curry village if you're staying for many days.
Just note you can't cook at curry village while housekeeping you get a fire pit and can cook all you want. I highly recommend housekeeping.
