"Easy walk to campstore, post office, restaurant, and visitor center. Many trails close by. Very busy in summer. No reservations. Tent only loops available."
"Very quiet but some sledding and hiking activity close by. Sites are a little close to each other, but being so quiet it's not a big deal."
$32 / night

$34 - $72 / night
"Campsites are spread out nicely, access to bear boxes, dumpsters, and bathrooms are easy. There is 0 cell service at this site, I only had access to WiFi at Grant Welcome center, about 20 min away."
"Next to the lake and some great trails, an easy car ride to everything else. This was my first time in the Sequoia’s and we stayed for 4 days in mid-July. The weather was perfect!"
$32 - $60 / night
"Great location, centrally located for exploring both Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks.
Nicely shaded spots and the higher elevation is nice for cooler nights during the hot summer months."
"We reserved two sites next to each other (sites 77 & 78) so we had plenty of space. I have to say this is a very busy campground because it is in a rather popular park (King’s Canyon NP)."
$32 / night
"Far away from neighbors to feel privacy and great hikes in every direction that go up in the mountains. A lot of mule deer very close by as well."
"We were right next to the entrance of a hiking trail (#14) so there was a lot of foot traffic & cars early in the morning and throughout the day."
$40 - $55 / night
"Typical California foothills hardpan and dead grass sites - large and able to accommodate very long combo rigs and have enough width to disconnect and park adjacent to the towable."
"There are many ways to arrive here, but the most direct and easiest is on California State Highway 180. The park is open, but the office is not, so it’s find a spot and check yourself in."
$34 - $36 / night
"So I chose this one because it has a nice stream nearby, it's so nice to camp near water. It was sparsely crowded, very quiet."
"We were able to tuck our tent back by some shaded trees and directly behind our site was Stoney Creek. There were lots of areas to swim and wade which was helpful with the warm weather."
$34 - $72 / night
"There are nearly 100 sites in total, most suited for RVs & trailers, all for tents. There are sequoia stumps are spread throughout the entire campground and adjacent meadow."
"Loved being tucked away with the huge trees all around us and a short drive to Hume lake. We come here every time we are in Kings Canyon"
$32 - $80 / night
"The only thing negative I could say about this campground is that a lot of the campsites are very close to each other. But if you choose wisely, as my friend and I did, then I have no complaints."
"It was also very close proximity to pretty much everything. We did a lot of driving around."
"No real walking trails in the area but were able to go down to the river and there was a swimming hole,$40 for holiday weekend."
"The campground is behind a RV and up against the river. Its a flat dirt lot with bathrooms and showers available. Market is near buy as well as gas stations in case ice or other supplies is needed."
TravelerThis beautiful site is geared more for tent camping. There are two RV spots with water & power hook ups but those are really tight, right next to the road for easy access. The RV sites don’t have the gorgeous views the tent sites have. Beautiful rolling hills, a small pond, and big trees create a nice athmosphere, and it is nice to walk around the campsite with dogs. This location is really close to the King’s Canyon NP entrance. Overall good but would not stay here with an RV.
TravelerBeautiful and well kept campground. Also loved the fact that loud music is not allowed. The sites by the river are amazing. There is also a really nice, large, and clean dog park! Will stay here again!
ScoutThis is a historic campground. With 1000 year old trees and history of logging. Good fishing and hiking all around the area. Nice hosts and most people are respectful of the area.
Travelerpitch your tent in a beautiful grove of sequoias - including the massive stumps left over from fallen giants - on the edge of a meadow filled with lupine, aspen, and a sweet little creek. took a chance on the rare possibility of a cancellation and it somehow paid off. hosts keep the facilities super clean, it's quiet at night even with a full campground, and the stargazing is incredible. smells amazing, too. definitely the princess of all campgrounds. in close range to hume lake for swimming and general grant village for phone service, food, and supplies.
ScoutLabor day weekend and half the campground is closed, water faucets are locked, and dump station is closed. We specifically chose this campground for the convenience of water and dump station. Otherwise, the sites are spread apart and the scenery is beautiful.
ScoutVery peaceful relaxing experience. Campground very clean , exceptional atmosphere. Very please with amenities,
ScoutIt is peaceful and beautiful. Weekends are always busy here
TravelerAwesome location, easy to reach with a 4X4 Low clearance vehicles may need to be careful
GuideBeautiful, quiet & remote location! Very limited and spotty cell service so difficult to pin exactly. Coming off the General Highway at Forest Rt 14S29 keep going along the paved road until it ends and you’ll find it (about 2 or 3 miles) Campfire stones rings available. Unfortunately previously campers didn’t respect the area and we had to pick up a bit of litter. There were also some signs of bear activity (bags clawed through) but we didn’t see any (unfortunately)… room for about 4 sites but we went mid Aug and we’re the only ones there!! Highly recommend if you’re looking for something quiet and off the beaten track.
