A recent visitor mentioned, "There are sequoia stumps spread throughout the entire campground and adjacent meadow, with a lovely paved trail near the meadow and sequoia grove." Most glamping accommodations are available from Memorial Day through Labor Day, with reservations strongly recommended during peak summer months.

"While I did not camp here, I did drive through and checked out the sites. I was looking to get a bit further on my driving or I would have happily set up camp. "

Waterfront Heaven
My first camping experience here was truly remarkable. Similar to my previous trips to the eastern Sierras, this campground offered a convenient location near amenities and right on the lakefront. The campsites were beautifully designed, with ample space between them, ensuring a comfortable and spacious stay. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at this campground.

Secluded but Convenient
We had a great three night, four day trip. The site we stayed at was more secluded than most sites at the campground. It was great weather and also convenient to water play access.

Nice Area
Nice campground. Bathrooms are outdated but generally clean. Some spots are not very great- such as 156, but I was able to get my van in sideways.

Sunset Campground — Kings Canyon National Park
Location and Views Keep Me Coming Back
Sites 100, 33, 41. Late June. A beautiful HILLY campground with dirty to very dirty flush bathrooms and no hosts. NPS does a terrible job with janitor service all over the country in my experience.
Site 100 parking pad has a 4 degree grade. It is a very lovely site for smaller tent camping with view of sunset. In a quiet hilly part of the campground, but I had few neighbors even though the sites showed up as completely booked on rec.gov.
Site 33 has a 3 degree grade and *abuts several sites* and the water spigot. Short pad could accommodate a van, but the pad adjacent is *very* close.
Site 41 is at the top of the hill and has a beautiful view and but little shade.
Big Stump trailhead can be reached by footpath from the campground. (Or you can drive back toward the gate and park there).
Visitor's Center with WiFi and a store and decent flush toilets near the restaurant is almost just across the street.
Beware of tiny chipmunks in the most crowded areas. At site 33 I saw two jump onto people's cars/campers. One was trying to get into an open car door.

Onion Valley
Beautiful site. We live in independence & want to update the reviews.
We drive up here most every week every season. Scenic mtn drive. It’s usually really crowded. You should try to reserve a site ahead of time if camping. You need to buy supplies in Lone Pine or town of Bishop. Only small gas station stores in Independence. Lower & Upper Grey’s are optional nice camp sites with camp host at Upper Grey’s who is very helpful; these sites have nice stream fishing & are also very clean. There is water, no electric hook ups. There are horseback riding stables at the top for hire. There can be mosquitoes & even bees at certain times of the year.

Off the grid yet still accessible. Love the environment and campsite. Hosts were amazing and helpful.

Camp Edison
Great Family Friendly Campground
Second time staying at this campground. This time I stayed in the lower section that is closer to the Marina. More crowded compared to my first visit in November last year (which is expected as it’s the beginning of Summer and most people camp in the Summer. Nice campground, has all the amenities such as flushed toilets, hot shower ( $0.25/2 minutes), most sites have outlets and water spigot, and laundromat.
There’s museum on site and events so you can visit with the kids. You can also go down to the picnic area for swimming and fishing and clean at the near fish cleaning station.
It’s a bit overpriced since it has electricity but you can pick a large site and have a group to split the cost so it won’t be too bad

What to Do
Hike to waterfalls from Cedar Grove: Moraine Campground provides strategic access to nearby trails.

Explore Boyden Cavern: Located a few miles from Sheep Creek Campground, the cavern offers daily tours. "While you're there, be sure to check out the Boyden Cavern, it's a few miles from the campsite and they have daily cave tours," reports Jamie D.
Evening stargazing: Clear mountain skies provide exceptional stargazing opportunities. "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," explains a visitor at Horse Creek Campground.
What Campers Like
Proximity to Kings Canyon and Sequoia: Sunset Campground serves as a central base for exploring both parks. "The campground located in the middle of all the popular attractions in both king canyon and sequoia park," shares Tammy L. from Sunset Campground.
