Backcountry sites around this 9.4-mile round trip hike that climbs over 2,500 feet to visit the picturesque pair of high-elevation lakes.
This KOA is great! Very clean, has a K9 area, barbecue grills, hot showers, laundromat, etc. and right in town!
We chose this campground to be an easy "getting back to camping" campground since it was supposed to be developed and even have showers.
Cons: The central restrooms/showers have been non-operational for over a year based on the maintenance log of the porta potty. While the porta potty was well maintained, there were no hand wash stations or anything to make up for the loss of sinks and showers. The tap outside the building didn't work and neither did the water fountain.
The host was not there for check-in. Thankfully, we ran into a very kind maintenance worker that gave us the predator rundown for the area and told us how to get to our site. The host eventually showed up, but was not there for at least 5 sets of campers who were trying to check in.
Nearly every campsite has a major hill, so most will not have a good flat area for a tent. Site 61 is flat and a couple of others have flatter grounds, but many will have you sleeping on an angle.
Cons Site 61: The previous group was very disrespectful of the site and left glass shards everywhere. We had to sweep it away from our tent site and kept finding more as we were using our site. It was especially a problem since we brought our dog, so eventually we just laid tarps out to let her walk on instead of the dirt for her safety.
No shade at all. While most other sites had trees or an aluminum awning to provide some sort of shade, Site 61 had nothing. Thankfully, we planned for that, but definitely worth mentioning for other campers. Most sites on the inside of the loop had good tree coverage, so if that's what you're looking for definitely book one of the inner loop sites like 63.
For those looking to be fully removed from the world, you should know this campsite is RIGHT off the highway, so there is traffic and some headlights if drivers have their brights on. That didn't bother us, but we've lived off of major streets for years, so we tune it out pretty well.
Pros: There was running water, but you had to find it near other campsites. (Closest one to ours was near Site 63, which was very convenient)
Pros Scenery: The stargazing is beautiful. There is some limited light pollution emanating from the other side of the foothills, but because you are surrounded by foothills you get some good, dark surroundings to really appreciate the stars. Similarly, the sunrise and sunset were slightly late/early because the sun was contending with the surrounding hills. When the sun was rising over the hills, there was a beautiful glow to them.
Pros Site 61: You have absolutely no neighbors, which gives you more privacy and the ability to face out in any direction and enjoy the scenery.
Predators: Coyotes, rattlesnakes, meat bees (bring cheap canned meat to set out during the day and they will leave you alone for the most part)
Cool Wildlife: Various birds, though I was never able to get a good enough look to identify them. There were also bats at night that really helped with the bug problem and created a cool ambience while stargazing. My husband loved listening to them hunt!
Overall: We enjoyed the site, but were extremely grateful that we are redundancy packers. If we didn't have our extras, we probably would not have had a good time since it was 100+ degrees every day we were there and the grounds weren't totally as advertised. (Toilets, showers, etc)
There is nothing to do at Lindy's other than the river and horseshoes, oh and watch the staff run around trying to look important.
What a joke of a "resort", California folk have no clue what a resort is.
Rough campground, they pick and choose the rules they want to enforce and who the rules apply to.
The ladies at the store must be paying people to leave good reviews.
Ron, the host, is a gem. Went here because we wanted at least a vault toilet. Nothing was free at the national parks reservation-wise, they were logging in Sequoia so its first come first serves were unavailable on 5/15 and some of the park was closed, and we wanted not to be kicked out of Sequoia and Kings Canyon for boondocking. Has single, double, and walk in tent camp sites, no water.
Very pretty spot 😊 could hear coyotes At night. Warm showers 😁. All awesome except for the fact you have to reserve one night in advance 😔
Passing through this was a fine place to sleep for the night, but for the price of $70 for just water and electric (when we typically stay at very nice holiday KOAs for the same rate) - we felt disappointed with our stay. The bathrooms were clean-ish, but there were still cobwebs and very DIY. In the men’s room, you would step on loose tile that would squish water up through it. For the price point, we expected professionally renovated bathrooms. Sites are on gravel and pretty close together with no privacy. Within the park there was noise late into the night that sounded like an ice cream truck and we could hear the nearby train throughout the night. In summary, for the experience we should’ve stayed at the Love’s down the road rather than spend the money here.
Campground was very large with bathrooms. Bathrooms were not maintained well. The campsites were really close to the neighbors.
Closed as of 6/30/23 (most likely temporarily)
Absolutely the worst human beings on the planet. A man flashed my son in the bathroom and blamed my son for it.
We camped in a non-electric tent site for $30, I was charged $68 but she (the manager) used up all my points to pay for it, and pocketed the $30 I already dropped in the overnight box.
They only want you to come, sleep, and leave. Don't even think about enjoying the property or cabin.
They have cameras watching you and will nit pick you to death. They will tell you where to park, then get mad at you for parking there.
The employees drive around, obviously under the influence. I once witnessed the maintenance man running over the fire pit. Smh.
They no longer offer tent sites. Only RV per website.
We visited this camp late July 2022, hot temperatures although nice breeze. Google map is not updated/ accurate since it shows lake bend is closer to campsites which is not. The drought have made it too far to my liking we had to drive 3 miles up where the river flows to cool down , restrooms facilities are not maintained regularly. There are 2 restroom facilities (with showers) for 75+ sites.. too many people waiting in line to use the restrooms . Security was excellent rangers were patrolling very often, drinking water was available on sites…
Great camping spot, dogs allowed on leash. Clean restrooms. Respectful neighbors. Would come back!
This spot is a good stopover point to get near the mountains leading to Sequoia. Not a bad resting spot after a long drive. Hot, noisy, street lights, little privacy between neighboring spots makes it hard to enjoy. Good pool, fun game room, nice store and staff.
We spent 2 nights here on our way to Sequoia/Kings Canyon NP. The spot was nice, right on the lake with nice mountain views. Sites were generally not level as it is situated on the hill down to the lake. Bathrooms were messy and half were out of order due to a maintenance project. The RV Dump station was also unavailable (same reason). During peak season I'm sure this is a great spot, but at the time of our visit it was a bit out of sorts. If we pass by again in the future we'll give it another try.
This place is awesome and knowing that certain times of the year it actually goes underwater. So it's just knowing that ur camping on an actual lake is pretty damn cool. Plus it's clean. And the scenery is spectacular
Just small little grass plots or pull in rvs
They had some cute stray cats
Stayed here for a couple nights, the warm weather has been quite appreciated. No wind either. Lots are spacious and all have a great view. Supposedly the lake is full up to here at other times in the year. For now it’s quite the ways but you can see it far off near the dam.
Your typical KOA, with less fan fare than most. Super tight packed slots, barely a tree between every few. No real landscaping or frills.
Very nice staff.
If you need a basic place to hook up and spend a night this will do the trick.
Not close enough to nature. Sketchy characters hang around. Facilities are not cared for.
Fairly close to Kings canyon NP. Campsites are a bit close to other campers/RVers, but overall, a nice site.
Very impressed by the Princess grounds. Restrooms were well maintained, the camp host were friendly and informative. I was hesitant to go camping, being that the last time I camped (7+) years ago I had a very bad experience. But I have to say this campground definitely changed my perspective. Lake hume was only 3 miles away, and other great points of interested we approx 12 miles away. This was a great location, clean, well kept and the space between the sites was very good. And best of there was no cell service making it easier to take the time and enjoy nature. Looking forward to going back soon.
We had a wonderful time. We had camped here about 10-15 years ago and found the park to be a bit dusty, dry, and run down. This time it was very green, very shady, and well kept. The host was very nice and friendly. There is a small convenience store with all the last minute essentials. There are a couple of new looking piers out into the river and a very nice beach. It was a dry time of year so the river was down and the lagoon was dry. All the roads were lined with redwood chips and kept moist with a water truck. We were very impressed with all the improvements. The park is now RV only with no tent camping. We will definitely come here again.
There’s a river all the kids love to play in. Water moves slowly but it’s not necessarily ‘clean’ although none of the kids mind. Pool is a little murky but full of people. There’s a resident teenage bear named Horse that comes around and they also warn you about snakes. We had a few issues with locals trying to cause problems by coming in and creating dust clouds but the camp seemed to take care of them pretty quickly. Full hookup sites are fine. Somewhat shady with all the trees. People seem friendly.
If you have a long fifth wheel or RV this place is perfect pull through parking full hook up. The front desk lady is so nice he has a small store there for incidentals that you might’ve forgot. Clean quiet. Great family place
Rangers were very nice, it was clean and they have pretty good showers. We were very late to check-in but had no problems getting in. One of the boat launch ramps was right there in the camp ground and the other was really close at lake view. Water was really low but still had a blast on my kayak and with my dogs and trying to catch fish. It’s by reservations only and we stayed 3 nights. It is pretty far away from the market so don’t forget to pack your cooler. Definitely recommend this camp.
So first off I want to say HOW CLEAN THE GROUNDS WHERE. The bathrooms where super clean at all times, however, in the morning the restrooms smelled god awful. I’m guessing they put something in there when they clean to deodorize them, come morning I wouldn’t advise using it. That is not anyone’s fault though so I’m just saying lol.
The stumps around the grounds where amazing. The Indian Basin Trail was pretty cool too.
Be aware that this is about an hour from General Sherman tree but the drive isn’t that bad.
All in all. It was a great trip. We stayed 3 nights and had no problem what so ever.
