If you like camping on top of your neighbor this is your place. Ridiculously tight spaces. Sure its a great location to go explore sequoia national park but to me the trade off wasn't worth it. We only ended up here because we were booking last minute and it was the weekend.

We had a wonderful stay at this campground! The family who owns and runs it is incredibly kind, welcoming, and always willing to help. The campground is clean, peaceful, and has plenty of space for both RVs and tents. One of the best parts is the lake—it’s just a short walk away, and the water is shallow, making it great for families and kids to enjoy safely. If you’re looking for a relaxing camping experience with friendly owners and a beautiful setting, I highly recommend this campground. We had a great time and will definitely be coming back!

We stayed in an rv site. Close to river, decent shade , very nice family ran business. They were very flexible and accommodating to our itinerary change request which we appreciated very much. Kids had a blast playing in the calm river on the property

Not sure how this campground has such great reviews, we were extremely disappointed. I will lead with I appreciate the customer service and understanding of the front desk, we were easily able to get a refund, however to pull up on check in day to what we did and have to stress to find somewhere new same day is not an experience you want to have. We were a group booked for tent camping and maybe that’s the problem, I do not recommend tent camping here. The spots are basically extra large parking spots, packed together, all gravel, no trees or greenery and an oddly positioned fire ring. Not to mention part of the site dug up and marked with caution tape due to open trenches. Definitely avoid this campground if you’re a tent camper. We wound up at sequoia RV ranch instead - 10/10 experience there, especially with the last minute accommodation due to our struggles here.

I stayed in cabin #1 and it was nearly perfect. It was clean, cute, and has really all that you need as far as as a fully equipped kitchen, nice bathroom, tv, and beds. My only tiny complaint is the pillows. They're pretty flat and need to be replaced. I usually bring at least one of my own but for whatever reason this time I didn't, so that was my bad. Also, the private beach/river access is very nice.
