      Nice

      The other "resorts" on the river need to come here and see what a real campground is like. 

      Either way this is a nice campground with nice stuff like a pool, hot tub, clubhouse, and more.

      Not Impressed

      We arrived after carefully following the website and emailed instructions, as our RV GPS and Waze would not have gotten us here. We pulled up in the small parking lot in front of the entry gate. Although we arrived during open hours, there wasn't anyone in the office, but a kid came up to us and offered to get his mom, who was the manager. However, the kid came back alone and told us our information package was on the front board outside the gate and had everything we needed to include the gate code. We then proceeded to our assigned FHU site 34 that was a pull-in with utilities set up for a motorhome. The site was large enough that we could have pulled in, unhooked, and moved the truck out, but we were concerned about connecting to the utilities in this configuration. Back-in site 33 with FHUs was empty, so we called the office number and the man who answered didn't know if it was empty but would go check in the office if we wanted to move sites. It was obvious we were putting him out, but he did call back a few minutes later and said that back-in site 33 was open for our two-day stay. The pads here are all sand, and after settling in, we noticed the campground(CG) was about half full with either residents or transient workers. Some sites were organized, and others were not. The way the large-sized sites here are arranged, you can park your rig in various configurations. The utilities worked fine, including a decent water pressure of around 40 psi. Supposedly, they have Wifi, as indicated by the multiple repeaters around the park, but we received no instructions/password and didn’t see a guest network to try and log in. This was fine as we put out our Starlink and we had 4 bars on Verizon. We are in no way prudes, but several of the private WiFi names we could see on“Other Networks” were pretty disgusting making us question who we were parked by. They do have a nice pool area with two hot tubs. There is also a nice-sized dog park with two separate fenced areas. According to the front of the office, they sell sundries and souvenirs, but they never opened the office during our stay even though should have according to the hours on the door. From the information on their website, the King River that runs adjacent to the CG is pretty much dried up this time of year(January) but fills for the summer season. Sorry to say we didn’t“feel it” on this CG and would not want to be here in the busy season.

      A Place to Sleep

      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.

      Remote, quiet and great history

      While the sounds of highways and trains abound, the historical significance of this amazing site isn't lost to the sands of time. A pleasant, barely off the beaten path campground, this is worth a stop over before entering the hustle and bustle of southern California urban life.

      Walk around the town and listen to the history of this very significant town that was once the site of the largest hotel between Los Angeles and San Francisco.

      We are the only people here

      Will steal your money, points, and flash you in the bathroom!

      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.

      Close to the freeway. Clean showers and bathrooms. Sites are level gravel with not much in between.

      Nice Grassy Sites

      Over all it was nice campground. The pond was over grown with moss and weeds so we didn’t fish in it. The bathrooms could benefit from some maintenance and a good cleaning. Campsites do not include fire rings but you can rent one. During our stay the river was full, water was ice cold which made it very humid and the mosquitoes were horrible. Some site have trees and some don’t. I liked how the sites had grass. Sites are kind of narrow but are deep. Felt bad that our hooks up were in front of our neighbors door but this could be avoided based on how far back you pull in. We would stay her again just not in July.

      A Nice Means to an End

      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.

      Expensive

      I had planned to stay at the KOA near Sequoia as we had been there before.  But I didn't anticipate that we were going to be arriving on Sunday of Memorial Day weekend, and waited too long to make my reservation and the KOA was full.

      I started searchingi for something else close to Sequoia and found Lemon Cove.  They were charging $117 for Sunday and $107 for Monday. 

      I could not find anything else available and read the good reviews, so I went ahead and made the reservation.

      I have NEVER paid that much for an RV spot, and was not happy about it.  I thought it must be a really spectacular park.  It was not!

      We were traveling from Bakersfield which is only about an hour and a half away.  Lemon Cove has a 3PM check in time.  I have never been to a park that has a 3PM check in time.  This is not a hotel.  The office was closed from 1-2, so we waited for it to open.

      When they opened it up, she said that she was not going to charge us the $25 early check in fee.  Which I thought was absurd to begin with.  She said she was feeling generous.

      The spot we had was very uneven & the sewer is pretty much on an uphill slant from the trailer, which was an issue for dumping. 

      Being Memorial Day weekend the park was full.  There was a huge group there (which don't get me wrong I have no issue with families camping together and having fun) and it was very noisy and crowded.

      I would not have felt bad about paying for this ridiculously overpriced park if it had been a really nice resort type park.  But it most definitely is NOT.

      This was just price gouging at its best.

      Nice getaway with clean facilities

      Pull through sites made setting up super easy. Place was quite and clean. Not much for extra activities on site, but they did have a clubhouse. Great spot to stop if you are headed to Sequoia National Park. I would stay here again.

      Hidden Gem in Coast Range

      A great camping location in the coast range if you are looking to get away from civilization. The road to the NW was patched up this year so it is much smoother than previously reported. There is zero Verizon service for a long ways unless you hike up a mountain or drive to Coalinga. the NW exit has no service until near King City or halfway to Hollister.

      Visalia-Sequoia National Park KOA

      Very basic, tightly packed.

      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.

      My stay

      Lots of trees which is great unless you have a satellite dish on top of your RV. I should have scouted the place first to get a site with a clear sky. A section of road leading into the park is extremely bumpy. Careful with carbonated drinks after you arrive. Laundry machines are credit card only. The park is along the King River. Which was dry as a desert when I was here. No water presently but looks like that’s not always the case. The speed limit is 5 mph and signs everywhere in case you forget. There are stop signs about every 50 feet. Not at crosswalks or intersections, just randomly placed for no particular reason. At 5 mph it’s a bit redundant. The grounds are kept up nicely and sprinklers everywhere. In the morning my ground was wet along with my just washed truck. All in all I’d probably stay here again. It’s a bit pricey at a little over $80/day.
