    Is one of the best place for camping.
    River is just 100 feet away from the camping area.
    The restroom are always cleaning there is one person who is in charge to receive the visitor clean some areas, give information abaout the camping and taking care the people haven't recerved sapace out this area.. definitely making a great job.

    Great trip. Vault toilet and no water spigot but near lake beach. The sound of the river was amazing

    You have to know going into here that you have basic amenities. There’s no running drinking water, so you must bring lots of water bottles. It’s not the closest to the store either. There’s 2 basic restrooms for the entire campground: one on each side. Plan on walking a bit to get to the restrooms. Also, there are no showers. River baths anyone? Finally, we were at the beginning of the campground, and the watering hole was all the way up a small hill to the other side of the campsites, then down the hill to the watering hole. You also have to go in between campsites to get there, which can be a little awkward, but if you’re friendly, you may just meet some cool neighbors. If you go in knowing this and planning accordingly, you’ll have a great time. We had a shaded campsite with lots of trees, were able to put up a hammock and a slack line (with tree protectors). The campsite is near some hidden gems (driving distance), and we went to the sequoias (trail of 100 giants), found the rock water slide (caution, slippery when wet, rip iPhone to the pond below), and just enjoying some off-road driving while taking random turn offs. Bonus points: the campsite is dog friendly, which is a must for us and our puppy! Definitely want to come back now that I know what to expect!

    Stayed with friends at spots 18 and 19 in early October. We had sites closest to the main road which turned out to still be pretty quiet. We could hear the Kern River down below, and an easy minute or so walk down proved worth it. There was a bit of foot traffic by fisherman down the path behind these campsites, otherwise they were very private and were roomy with plenty of privacy. Bathrooms were close and fairly well-maintained, and a short walk away was the "Croc Rock" which was a fun surprise. Highly recommended!
