Kings Canyon Sequoia National Forest
I have been going to Kings Canyon on and off for the last 6 years with a large group of friends that are like family. We usually go between June and August depending on the water flow , the water is snow melt and in 2017 it was the coldest I had felt, took my breath away. Moraine (campsite) has quite a few spots but is very secluded because it is the furthest (or close to it) distance from the general store. There are many different hikes of all skill levels near by but you will have to drive to find that perfect little beach, sandy meadow or waterfall, whatever your interest may be on your visit. There are bear boxes in each site,well because, BEARS! Bathrooms are at each campground but pay showers are at the general store along with pay phones.
If you are looking for gorgeous views, all types of nature, and getting away from the daily hustle, this is the place.
