Sequoia RV Ranch provides full hookup sites along the Kaweah River approximately 8 miles from Sequoia National Park entrance. The park features riverfront pull-through sites with water, electric, and sewer connections, along with standard back-in sites on gravel pads. Lemon Cove Village, located in nearby Lemon Cove, offers electric hookups, water, sewer, and a sanitary dump station for motorhomes and travel trailers. Three Rivers Hideaway accommodates RVs with basic amenities in a central location near park access points. Sites throughout these parks vary significantly in size and spacing, with several properties supporting larger rigs. "Great spot to get away. The RV ranch was great, the staff was helpful, and accommodating."
Full hookup availability becomes limited during peak summer months when Sequoia National Park visitation increases. Most RV parks in the area remain open year-round, though winter conditions may affect access to higher-elevation campgrounds within the national park boundaries. Several properties offer WiFi connectivity, though signal strength varies considerably across the region. Pet policies generally allow leashed dogs in designated areas of RV parks, while national park restrictions limit where pets can accompany travelers. Dump stations are available at most developed RV parks, with Sequoia RV Ranch and Lemon Cove Village both providing sanitary disposal options. One review noted, "We had issues with low voltage from the electric post on site 6 which caused our RV's electrical system to cycle on and off," suggesting travelers should verify power stability at certain locations.

TravelerExcellent RV Resort! We stayed a night on our way to Yosemite and we found this RV Resort by google search. Marcos at the front desk is very accommodating. There are many facilities including, swimming pool, hot tub, mini mart, gift shop, playground, horseshoes, basketball hoop, kitchen facility, RV dump station, fenced in dog run, laundry, showers, full hook ups, clubhouse, Wifi and more! Great place to stop.
LegendSort of weird setup, with no same-day reservation and don't come by and see if any sites are unreserved and available. It seems you must reserve online 24 hours in advance, so it's not surprising that there are a lot of other rules here. The gates close at 9:00 p.m. The sites themselves are nice, located in a grassy meadow around a reservoir This is the most grass we have seen in several months. Water levels are high right now, and some sites are actually flooded but you can enjoy fishing, swimming, and boating in the reservoir. Each site seems to have a picnic table and a fire ring with a grill on it. Some sites have shade awnings. There are both pull through and back in and tent only sites. Communal pump out, trash, recycling, and water is available. It looks like they are using porta-John's and flush toilet facilities. The showers only run for a few seconds and you have to keep hitting the button to get more water, but it is hot. Good T-Mobile coverage. Very close to Sequoia National Park. Short drive to Three Rivers or Visalia for resupply. This campground is a bargain.
ScoutNice park, well kept, friendly staff. As you will see from the photos this is an old KOA. RV spaces are all pull through, and spaced well and are pretty level. Electrical is updated and spaces have okay water pressure. Has laundry and pool as well
Restrooms and showers are clean but need updating.
There is no cable tv hook ups and Wifi is available but it’s really worthless can’t connect once you are away from the office. Verizon Wireless is 2 bars of LTE works okay....
Lots of great tent spots with shade, water and 110v outlets
It appears that they are trying to make this a nicer place. (Note: my 3 star rating is for lack of cable and wifi) Which should have for $50 a night. Otherwise, I would give 5 stars. Would stay again though.....
TravelerOnce again we heard about this campground from friends. We had been to the 3 rivers area before to camp but had stayed at another campground. This campground is our go to if we’re camping in Three Rivers. There are creek side full hookup pull through sites, pull through full hook site, back in full hook up and tent sites with raised wooden foundation for a tent. I would recommend this campground. Also the little town of Three Rivers is pretty cool to check out. Also there are a few places to fish and swim in the nearby Kaweah River. The campground is also a good place to stay if you plan on going up to Kings Canyon National park.
ScoutIf you have a long fifth wheel or RV this place is perfect pull through parking full hook up. The front desk lady is so nice he has a small store there for incidentals that you might’ve forgot. Clean quiet. Great family place
GuideThis park is absolutely stunning this time of year. There are wildflowers everywhere and the weather was a perfect low 70s in the daytime and 50s at night. We stayed in spot 33 which says for 53’ or less… we are 42’ and barely fit so be careful there. Additionally, you will NOT fit here if you can’t take your rig past a 90* turn safely. It was a bit of a nightmare getting turned around to back in here (we have a 42’ toy hauler and a 3500 ram DRW with an Andersen hitch), BUT we’ve had an incredible week here. Stars were beautiful, the nature trail was perfect for our three boys, and the views are absolutely stunning. Worth the $20 a night. If you’re a big rig, park in overflow or the upper loop. Trust me on this.
RangerWe stayed at this campground may years ago (2006-2008) and it has remained one of our favorites.
Our most recent stay was for a small rally of 8 class A RVs from 34' to 43' in length all with tow vehicles. Wishon was able to accommodate all of us. The drive to Wishon starts with a long climb to Shaver Lake. Past Shaver Lake the road becomes windy for the remainder of the drive. Expect at least a 40+ minute drive from the Shaver lake turn off. On the way you will pass a grove of Giant Sequoia trees with a pull out to walk or picnic among them.
All sites are gravel and have full hook ups. Some sites have 50 amp service but it will rarely be needed because of the elevation of 6800 feet. All sites will accommodate the RV, vehicle, boat, and more. Wishon also has tent sites with or without platforms.
There are many activities available from this campground. Hiking, mountain bike riding, Jeep trails (Dusy-Ershim Trail), and fishing. Two reservoirs are nearby, Wishon and Courtright. Courtright at 8200' opens later than Wishon at 6600'. Rainbow and German Browns can be caught.
Wishon Village has a nice store with most necessities and sells fishing licenses.
LegendGreat location with store and restaurant a short walk away. Lake Hume not far away. Sites are normal National Forest small so no big rigs and no hookups, very popular and busy when we were there
LegendBeautiful small campground at the foot of the mountains, easily accessed from the small town of Independence and about 45 min drive north to Bishop.
Campground is currently open (March), but in winter operation mode. No water, no host, no firewood, and no fees. Campground open date is April 25, not sure when winter season starts. Price is $25 when open.
There are toilets but they are closed at this time and there are porta potties instead.
There are trash bins that are unlocked, but the website says that there is no trash service during the winter season so be prepared to pack out your trash if needed.
Each site has a picnic table, a fire ring, and a bear box. Some sites have a cool rock oven/stove. Each site has a unique configuration, some being more private and surrounded by brush, and some more out in the open.
A really nice small creek runs behind the campground.
We arrived on a Monday in late March and had the entire place to ourselves for a night. The next day several other campers showed up.
Cell service is very iffy, especially for Verizon and T-Mobile. AT&T mostly had 1-2 bars of 4G. However, just a few miles down the road on the way to Independence there is excellent service from all carriers.
Really nice campground. $25 seems a bit high but this would be a great place to stay while exploring the surrounding mountains.

Waterfront recreation: Sequoia RV Ranch offers river access points for guests to cool off during summer months.

There was a really nice swimming hole that we did not test out in March," reports one visitor to Sequoia RV Ranch.
Explore nearby towns: The community of Three Rivers provides small-town amenities within minutes of most camping areas. "The little town of Three Rivers is pretty cool to check out. Also there are a few places to fish and swim in the nearby Kaweah River," notes a camper from Sequoia RV Ranch.
Acclimatize before hiking: Some visitors use the campgrounds as base camps for mountain expeditions. "Whitney Portal is a magical place... If you aren't planning to summit Mount Whitney, I highly recommend the Lone Pine Trail, which leads up to an alpine lake, which is absolutely gorgeous," writes a visitor to Whitney Portal.
Wildlife viewing: The natural environment supports diverse wildlife viewing opportunities from camp. "Turkeys and lots of birds roaming. We did see a bear too (in Sequoia not at the campground)," reports a camper from Sequoia RV Ranch.
Spacious dry camping areas: Several campgrounds offer tent sites separate from RV sections. "We stayed in the dry camping area for a week and had a great time. Lots of space in dry camping area, a fire pit, and a picnic table at the site," writes a visitor to Sequoia RV Ranch.
Oak shade trees: Natural shade provides relief during hot summer months at select campsites. "Dusty Park overpriced for what you get," contrasts a less satisfied visitor to Riverbend RV Park, highlighting the importance of researching specific sites and seasonal conditions.
Power stability issues: Electrical services can be inconsistent at certain sites in the area. "We had issues with low voltage from the electric post on site 6 which caused our RV's electrical system to cycle on and off every minute or two. The onsite techs diagnosed an issue with the city-supplied power and mentioned sites 1 through 10 had issues with power, mostly on the weekends," explains a camper from Sequoia RV Ranch.
Winter temperatures: Cold weather camping requires additional preparation. "Visited right before Christmas and so we were treated to chilly temperatures and a relatively empty park. As a result, the experience was quiet and relaxing with a soundtrack dominated by the creek right outside our site," notes one winter visitor to Sequoia RV Ranch.
Reservation timing: Popular campgrounds fill quickly during peak seasons. "I booked the site a week before but in the midst of the season, I'd probably book weeks, if not months in advance for prime availability. Was here the last weekend of September and it was COLD," advises a visitor to Whitney Portal.
Dog-friendly amenities: Several RV parks provide dedicated pet areas. "Beautiful and well kept campground. Also loved the fact that loud music is not allowed. The sites by the river are amazing. There is also a really nice, large, and clean dog park!" notes a visitor at Sequoia RV Ranch.

Recreation options: Facilities at Riverbend RV Park include various activity areas. "Place has grass, dog park, lots of kids play areas, adults game areas, fishing pond, creek and river next to property is very pretty. We really enjoyed it," writes a visitor.
Site selection priorities: Experienced RVers recommend specific site considerations for comfort. "A lot of the other sites looked a little tight but not bad. The greatest part was the proximity to Sequoia/Kings Canyon (8 miles to the entrance)," notes a visitor to Sequoia RV Ranch.
Seasonal humidity concerns: Weather conditions affect comfort levels at riverside locations. "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," reports a visitor to Riverbend RV Park.
Check-in timing: Arrival time policies vary across RV parks near Three Rivers. "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.
