Lodgepole Campground is located in the breathtaking Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks in central California's rugged Sierra Nevada range. Lodgepole is perched on the banks of the scenic and lengthy Marble Fork of the Kaweah River, at an elevation of 6,700 ft. The inspiring Giant Forest Grove and the mighty General Sherman Tree - the world's largest tree in volume - are just two miles from the campground.
Forty miles of trails, including the paved Big Trees Trail, invite visitors to immerse themselves in the majesty of the ancient grove. Several additional popular hiking and wilderness trailheads are close by, including the trail to Moro Rock, a granite dome with spectacular views of the Great Western Divide and western half of the park. Tokopah Falls Trail is an easy walk along the Marble Fork of the Kaweah River, leading to an impressive 1200 ft. waterfall. Fly-fishing is also a popular activity on the Marble Fork.
Lodgepole pine, Red fir, and shrubs forest the campground, while towering groves of giant sequoias and craggy granite peaks dot the landscape. The Marble Fork of the Kaweah River is fed by snowmelt and flows seasonally through the site. This region is characterized by warm days and cool nights in the summer and deep snow and cold days in the winter.
The General Sherman Tree, General Grant Tree, Moro Rock and Tunnel Log are nearby, as is the informative Giant Forest Museum and the Lodgepole Visitor Center. Colorful Crescent Meadow offers views of vivid summer wildflowers and access to Tharp's Log, a cabin in a fallen sequoia. Crystal Cave is Closed for the 2023 season.

Located on the Pacific Crest Trail near the South Fork of the Kern River, Kennedy Meadows campground is surrounded by the South Sierra, Golden Trout, and Domeland wildernesses. It's a great place for camping near Los Angeles. Some of the 38 sites are shaded by juniper and pinion. Maximum vehicle length is 30ft.
Scout
This KOA is great! Very clean, has a K9 area, barbecue grills, hot showers, laundromat, etc. and right in town!
Ranger
Stayed in van in tent space 52. Bathrooms had showers with hot water, clean. Had laundry but we didn't use. 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. Lady at front desk was nice and very helpful over the phone and in person- saved us a space even tho we didn't have reservation over memorial day weekend. Tent spaces were adjacent with little space between and around a large parking lot. Friendly, quiet.
ScoutWe were so happy that we found this spot in the evening, after we had a reservation for a different campground and were so disappointed. Here we found a nice spot under a tree. Everything was clean, good WiFi and access to the river.
Scout
Great campground as base for hikes or just to chill and enjoy the river. We had no cell reception - good to be really off for a little while. Only the restrooms where a little disgusting - experienced that differently in other NPs.
Traveler
Awesome campground, the manager on-site was very curious and friendly. We booked a 30amp and needed 50 and he asked us to pick a spot and he would move us. This site has bikes to rent, a library with dad's to borrow and a lake with little boats. Site are good size and have a privacy . is nice for a little separation. Close to Sequoia and Kings Canyon NP and a neat bar and grill in Pinehurst about 10 minutes up the curvy road.
Guide
This location is for the Crystal Springs campground across from Azalea.
$32 p night, no hookups but a beautiful place.
Well worth a stay either here or Azalea. About 45-60 minutes to Lodgepole where you can take the shuttle for free to several park stops.
No cell service, easy to find. We have a 28 foot class c and there were lots of spots we could fit.
RangerIt’s a stunning area of the park with the Topokah falls trail right inside the campground. The market makes for great convenience and souvenirs. Some of the sites are a bit close together and it does get very crowded. But the location and close proximity to lots of attractions nearby make it worth it. Showers were out of order on my visit.
Traveler
Communication with the host was amazing, we went from the Thursday before Memorial Day to Memorial Monday. Everything was amazing. Very quiet community.
Full hookups for our 5th wheel, spacious sites, flushing restrooms and showers if you wanted. Starlink worked perfect, though there was wifi available.
A couple notes:
Zero Cell coverage (we took that as a good thing), but make sure to download your google map.
The drive up is a little daunting with going up the mountain, but the road was fine just take your time it will be worth it.
GuideAmazing family time
TravelerPassing 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.
GuideSimple campground with decent showers and toilets. We stayed with our car in a dry camping site, which was fine, but nothing special. Neighbors were quite loud, playing music outside
Scout
Great view of the KernRiver! Clean , quiet, good vibes.
ScoutClean restrooms and showers, nice picnic tables and fire rings, very nice tent sites. And the Wi-Fi was very good and covers the entire campground well. The campground has access to the river, though it did not carry a lot of water when we visited and you couldn’t swim.
RangerThe sites are close together and some are directly across from a very busy market. The ranger said that unlike Yosemite, Sequoia is packed with daytrippers. That proved correct! The marble creek river is gorgeous and people come, park and spend the day cooling off. Spot 198 is the best for RV’s in my opinion, but it only accommodates up to 22ft. If you can fit, it’s amazing. It’s the closest spot to the river and there is no one around you. 5 mins to the big trees. Some notes. Water spigots are only available near the bathrooms. The showers are only at the main visitors center along with the market and laundry. It’s a 10 min walk or short drive. The dump station is very nice and free to use. The elevation also means it’s 10-15 degrees cooler than other campgrounds. Generator hours are thankfully enforced
Traveler
Relatively small campground. Camp host was nonexistent. Lots of trees in most campsites. The non yurt sites didn’t have bear lockers. Fire ring was in rough shape. Loud neighbors first night. Second had techno from group site until late. Ponderosa general store was going to be my go to for firewood but it had burned down. So foraged for wood and picked up some at the campground at trail of 100 giants. Vault toilets were clean and stocked. Water spigot scattered around campground. No cell service on Verizon or wifi. Would come back here.
ScoutFantastic secluded campground with all amenities you need. Clean, quiet and convenient access to Sequoia National Park. With lovely staff who were extremely knowledgeable and accommodating, I would highly recommend these grounds for both tent camping and/or RV camping.
TravelerUsed to camp here with parents every summer when I was younger. Always had a blast here every year.
TravelerGreat campsite (#21) right on rivers' edge. Winter runoff and water is high and fast. Shade during the day. Restrooms are being rebuilt but should be ready by mid to end of June. Porta potties for now but they are very clean. Geese, grebes, egrets, lots of ground squirrels and raccoons.
ScoutAbsolutely 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.
Legend
Campground is nice overall. Sites are close together and site 4 has a small uphill to back into which if you have a RV or heavy camper your going to scrap hard backing in. Overall nice campground.
Guide
I’ve camped in a few different areas along Big Meadows road. It’s a great spot, this pin location gets Verizon signal along with some of the higher sites if you pull off the road. Higher sites are pretty private and have enough sun coverage for solar, the ones by the road get traffic passing by daily.
Montecito Bay Lodge just down the road has an all you can eat buffet Breakfast/Lunch $9 Dinner $20, the closest supplies are Kings Canyon Visitor Center, and Stony Creek Gas Station (closed oct-apr).
You might want to double check with the Visitor Center if this road is open when it’s snowing.
Scout
Most reviews here are dated. Campground has been abandoned for years so: no fees, busted up roads, no water, no trash, no bathrooms, no cell/wifi. Basically dispersed camping in an awesome location on concrete spurs/pads. Each site still had picnic table and fire pit. The mosquitos here are biblical at night so bring your nets and deet. Kern creek and trails right from campground. General store and Grumpy Bear tavern close down the road. Only 2 other campers here when I stayed in October. Great place as long as you are expecting disbursed camping experience.
GuideAll facilities are there. Good for an overnight stop from Sequoia park. Nice lady at reception. Good wifi
ScoutCamp James is a clean, spacious park. All sites are well kept, with access to clean bathrooms and coin operated showers. Staff is friendly and available when needed. Prices are a tad high but expected with a clean upscale Campground. Didn't expect a 3 night minimum charge the weekend after Labor Day but couldn't find a Campground with availability in a short time so we rolled with the 3 day requirement . A friendly family of bears made their presence at night as the trash cans were ransacked in the morning and my boyfriend came face to face with a skunk while walking our dog at night. Overall it's a beautiful park right on the Kern River and we would stay again if we could get one of the few riverfront spaces.
GuidePeaceful and for the most part quiet. Can get bust at times. Restrooms are flushed and they are cleaned daily. Lots to do with multiple trails to hike on right from the campground.
ScoutIt was a very peaceful and calm campground on the I stayed in one of the yurts. It was very clean and there is a bunkbed with two full size beds and another separate full size bed. The bathrooms were also kept very clean. I didn’t get a chance to go hiking in the area, but there are trails nearby. There is no service but it is about a 5 minute drive from a cafe/store/lodge that has Wi-Fi. I was in site 28. Sites 6-10 looked amazing for tent camping.
Guide
Overall nice site with full hookups & wi-fi/cell. Had a nice shade tree but it can be real sunny without one. Laundry right on site! Close to lake Isabella and all of the Kern. Great for last minute reservations too, online booking works
