Dispersed and free to use, Hermit's Hole sits within Sierra National Forest under US Forest Service management, with drive-in access typical of backcountry dispersed sites in the southern Sierra. No facilities are present. Campers should arrive self-contained with water, waste disposal gear, and bear-safe food storage, as dispersed sites in this area carry Leave No Trace requirements. Mule Rock Camp lies roughly 1.5 miles to the west for those wanting a developed alternative nearby.
