"Are you caught in a trap of this world’s gloom and doom. Then claw out of your rage, or you’ll stay in that tomb. Take your inner-child’s hand, run far from the scream. Let’s just say you deserve a gorgeous green scene." - James

“Once in his life a man ought to concentrate his mind upon the remembered earth, I believe. He ought to give himself up to a particular landscape in his experience; to look at it from as many angles as he can, to wonder about it, to dwell upon it. He ought to imagine that he touches it with his hands at every season and listens to the sounds that are made upon it. He ought to imagine the creatures there and all the faintest motions of the wind. He ought to recollect the glare of the moon and the colors of the dawn and dusk.” - M. Scott Momaday

Jewels Vista is about 30 minutes north of Fresno/Clovis, on a plateau 1,200 feet up. To get here, you'll gallop on 2 miles of dirt roads and see barbed-wire fencing between wood posts.

You may also see some cattle, horses, rabbits, and ground hogs. It's so beautiful, God has claimed this place for Himself! Everyone is welcome here, but If you were born an introvert, you'll especially love it! Come!

Lost Lake Campground

Welcome campers! Please read all of the below before booking, including the DIRECTIONS! Please do not show up without first making a reservation!

We have over 10 acres of stunning campground nestled only 15-20 minutes from the North entrance to the Sequoias! We have multiple sites to accommodate every type of camping from tent camping to tents-attached-to-cars and trucks, to pop-up campers to RVs. With exception of our 2 RV sites, site numbers are not used…which allows you to pick any open area on the 10 acres. We have many many sites for you to choose from! That being said if you have a large group message me and I can reserve a big spot for you.

There are wonderful views down into the valley, at night with sunsets off-the-hook, and city lights twinkling in the valley distance. Pick your spot and enjoy!

Be advised that if you do not have Verizon wireless, you will most likley lose service at some point!

DIRECTIONS: The 'Pinehurst Lodge' is on google, an easy reference point and is 1 minute away. Navigator apps push anyone coming from the south up the 245 highway. It is a very windy and slow climb up the hill. Totally doable, except large rigs. We recommend continuing north on the 99 to Fresno and then heading east on the 180. Its a faster and much smoother drive.

On this route that last gas station is a vallero called Clingins Junction. You can find it online. From this gas station, head east on the 180 for exactly 9.8 miles to the 245 highway, make a right, heading south. If you hit the park entrance, you went too far, turn around. Once on the 245, go 5 miles south.

When you arrive look for orange cones and solar lights easily visible from the road. There is 3 gates. The one that leads to the house. Directly to the right of that gate is the RV hook up sites gate. To the right of that is the lower campgrounds road.

Please check the weather before your stay!!!

Please message us for any questions! We are happy to help! We look forward to seeing you soon at Sequoia Mountain Farms!!!:)
