"A very cool and Very unique spot in Southern California. Places to walk around places to climb around. If you plan on doing any rock climbing then you’re planning on doing this in the morning."
"Just off the highway and easy to get to. The volcano in the distance is beautiful and fossil falls is so unique…lots of room to explore the lava flows."
"Overnight stay driving through. Easy access. Level parking areas. I stopped close to 395 & had no noise from road. Slept well with strong night winds."
"We landed here and drove thru the FF campground, which we knew was closed but wanted to check it out, and pulled out onto the dry lake bed area to spend the night. "

"We tent camped and our site was close to the rv hook up sites. The rv sites have two different sizes and hookups. Tent sites had access to running water."
"We loved this river spot even though we were next to one of the smaller parts rather than the main river. If you can try and get one near the main river as it is more picturesque. "
"**Troy Meadows is not as well-known as the campgrounds around Mt."
"This is a stop along the Pacific Crest Trail. The scenery is an amazing mix of Joshua Trees, pines, chaparral, mountains and large rocks, some snow on the peaks facing north."
"Right off the highway either beautiful overlook. Simple to access but few spaces for campers…lots if tent space."
GuideNice place! Just came to camp a few days very quiet at night, doesn’t get too windy, very convenient to road and many spacious spots around near rocks. I can get up to 3 bars of cell AT&T service in some spots. Has one spot with nice shaded tree which also had a raven nest in there with a baby raven.
GuideFun place to roam around the pinnacles during sun up and sun down! Will get very hot and windy during afternoon and night. Private camp sites, and saw one large site for bigger rigs. No service until you get to about Ridgecrest, so about 10 miles out from the start of the unpaved road with AT&T. Road to pinnacles is about 5 miles of gravely washboard road but gets smoother as you get around pinnacles. Has one vault toilet and informational signs along the road.
ScoutThis area is in the Wild & Scenic Kern River. Camping is only allowed In designated locations. Our site was perfect for our Overlander Suburban with a beautiful view of the river from inside our rig! Free and has trash dumpsters.
GuideQuiet and you feel engulfed in the forest. Road is winding and narrow, takes about 20 min from base of mountain to get there and no service but very beautiful! Lots of other campers and fishing pond near. Chilly near night and morning.
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.
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.
TravelerShort drive from 395 and once the road became dirt it was easily navigable in our Promaster. No one else there. Nice wide open views. It was extremely windy with 50+mph gusts which calmed after the sun went down.
TravelerThe only places you can camp are designated now. Tuttle creek. Everywhere else there are signs for no camping and only day use.
ScoutWe stayed at this wonderfull RV Park last week. The park is right on the river, clean and in wonderful condition. There is a sandy beach with water access. The park is right near downtown and you can walk to cafe's, bakery, shops and market. Hope to return soon.
