"If you’re looking to camp in California, Sequoia National Park should be one of your top destinations. They have cabin and tent camping. I have stayed in both."
"Amazing views all around the campgrounds. If you want to get of away from the city this is the place to be...Love it."
$32 / night
"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."
$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 / 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."
$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."
$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."
$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 - $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)."
$34 - $72 / night
"DON'T follow your GPS, it took us down some sketchy path in Kings Canyon NP that led to some research facility... and the road was off-road and took it's toll on our car."
"They have a nice open meadow to view stars at just outside of the campground. The camp host is nice and polite and very helpful."
"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."
GuideThe park was nice for the most part. Little on the expensive side for what you get. Every site has power. The sites I saw were all dirt, not sure if they have nicer sites or not. The site wasn't level but was manageable. Bathrooms are outdated but clean, and they charge you an extra $5 to use the showers. During the time I was there, it was a 2 night minimum, which h sucked cause I was just passing through. It's a large park so they always seem to have room even for last-minute bookings.
TravelerMy little family & I had a great experience tent camping here at Camp Nelson, Trudy showed lovely hospitality & we made some new friends, the campground is really clean & peaceful. There’s a nice little creek/waterfall on site and pond, we will definitely be coming back.
GuideIf you enter from the Tamarack trail head and go down Rock Creek Rd its easy to get to the overlook tower. If you enter from the Dinkey Creek entrance get ready for some good offroad ohv trail action. I was able to get my 13ft offroad camper up there but it was a struggle. OnX has that section labeled a 6/10. Plenty of places to disperse camp with awesome views of the lake.
GuideAwesome landscape to camp in. All the sites are designated so look for the map at the entrance to find one. We arrived on a Monday afternoon at 5 pm (mid may) and found just one site left. A few cleared out early in the morning so we moved over for a better view. Bring your own water and have a good alternative if you don’t want to use the very dispersed porta johns. Enjoy.
ScoutVery clean grounds. Friendly staff. Will come back. -1 star only because Tent sites are just dirt and RV sites are just gravel. Other I’d say 5 stars. Regardless will be back
TravelerNo one at the office or answering the phone. I reserved online and just picked a spot. After 2 hours of trying to reach the host about the WiFi, they sent a text with the password. Password didn't work with a message that the Internet was disabled. Host said he'd check on it, but it's still not working. $136 for 2 nights, full hookups.
TravelerA well maintained campground & walking distance from the lake. Standard but roomy sites with the usual fire ring/grill & picnic table, bathrooms are clean too.
TravelerThe only places you can camp are designated now. Tuttle creek. Everywhere else there are signs for no camping and only day use.
GuideGood in between kings canyon and sequoia. Only 5 campsites, very clean. We were the only people here for the night.
No service but we have starlink. Didn’t seem to have any problems even with the trees surrounding.
