A small, quiet campground that’s good for groups of 2-4 people since the sites are close to each other. The 1/2 mile in is on a dirt road, but easy to drive as we saw others with small sedans get in and out. We were here at the end of July and because of all the tree covering, the temperature was comfortable and cool even during the day. There are 2 vault toilets and it’s true, the smell of them travel throughout the campground, but the toilets were kept clean while we were there. No water so bring your own. No bear lockers. Simple trash cans near the toilet (not ones that would keep bears out) so bears must not be a problem at this campground. There’s a nice meadow adjacent to the sites that we saw many cows meandering through.

We came up through Kern and after seeing the loads of people there, overbooked camp spots, and lack of trees to give reprieve from the sun, we were so happy to have found Holey Meadow.

Tip: Trail of 100 Giants is minutes away. Go in the late afternoon if possible to avoid crowds.
