TravelerThere is a lot of room for a campsite if you are camping with a tent or car camping. The price is reasonable. The restrooms are well maintained with super flush. Waking up next to an amazing views of the formation of rocks are a plus! Went around June, so bring lots of water, pet friendly. Potable waters are provided.
ScoutWe can up here to escape to heat from the valley. There was plenty of space and it was accessible with our campervan. Spend a nice and quiet night here!
GuideClose to Sequoia and kings canyon, nice and quiet and lots of space for big rigs but we just have hammocks. Roads are good on the way in, last half a mile you wanna slow down a bit but no big rocks or gravel so passenger vehicles will be fine. No toilets, water or trash cans.
GuideWe stayed here for 2 nights before our camp booking inside the park and for one night after. We managed to find a spot each time, but I would recommend arriving sliiiiightly earlier as it does fill up. Nice and quiet, good amount of privacy and each site has a fire ring. And it’s only a few minutes away from the south entrance to the park.
GuideWas a great place to stay. Plenty of shade for you, plenty of sun for you solar panel. Load road, you camp near the side, but it's not heavily trafficked even on the weekends. They are many spots nearby. Some really pretty of you walk and camp. Most are car accessible and has amazing views! Totally recommend
ScoutNo running water or showers, also no dumpsters. Had to throw trash away at mammoth lake about 15 mins from here. Bathrooms ideally located near all campsites. If your looking for wildlife to come through camp at the edges of the campground. Center of the campground is pretty populated so you don’t have to worry about bears or anything if you keep your area clean of trash. Firewood is laying around everywhere so don’t buy any just bring an axe.
TravelerLove the site we had, close to water and surrounded by trees. Close to amenities and a local store for supplies. Prepare for a 45-60 min drive to the Yosemite Park and the valley.
GuideOne night after biking in the Sequoias
GuideCampsite was great. Hosts are amazing! 2 miles from all the Tahoe action in the city and the lake is right across the street.
