    We loved this campsite! The sites are well-spaced, the campground is clean, and quiet (We reserved…read more#9 & #10). The creek that flows through the campground is ice-cold, and makes for a beautiful hike (My husband even caught a small trout)! The bathrooms were kept relatively clean for pit toilets, and clean water is provided from a spigot (to rinse dirty dishes, or kids!). There is a super convenient little general store in Camp Nelson, which is the closest town. Just a beautiful place, with Sequoias sprinkled throughout! You will wake up every morning, glad you're there. The camp host (I believe his name is Dan), was super chill and very helpful when we asked about local sights, and hikes. The only con right now is the fire restriction in effect for the whole area, so that means NO campfires (I got a Campfire Permit beforehand, which is required, but was not inspected). It's a very shady campground during the day, and it gets pretty chilly at night, not to mention very dark. Just make sure you have a propane stove/grill/firepit, and some lanterns/headlamps/flashlights you'll be good to go! *Trail of 100 Giants is a must see, though it's a 22 mile winding drive from the campground*

    This campground is not closed. It's normally open from the middle of May to the middle of October…read more I am the camp host for this summer season and am doing my best to make campers feel welcome here. This is situated in a Sequoia grove, with a creek running thru it and a river next to it. There are 4 hiking trails close by. The campground is a mile from Camp Nelson. Two small grocery stores and two restaurant/bars are near. Residents are quite friendly and helpful. No cell service so it takes maps to find anything up here. Most importantly, the temperatures tend to be 20° cooler than in the valleys below.

This is a nature lovers paradise, if you're not a whiner. No running water, sounds natural Lots of flying insect, sounds natural No electricity or lighting, sounds natural My point, it's called camping and getting away from the city I encountered cows, Deer, wood peckers and other nature residents. I came prepared and enjoyed nature at its best. The restrooms are clean, the sites are shady and surrounded by fur trees, every 20 ft was a tree.. you can't even see my truck in the shade under the giant. Would recommend, I just don't want it full and booked when I need it..

You will be driving in onto a dirt road that can get a little wobbly from the water runoff, but once inside, there are about 10 camp spots that are enclosed in beautiful tall trees. To the right is a beautiful meadow that catches the morning dew with the sunrise. Pack in your own drinking and washing water as this campground is primitive with no running water. Don't be concerned about the toilets, as the camp host is great about keeping it spotless. One quick note though is that the host does not sell firewood at this campsite, so be prepared to drive two sites down to pick some up. Its a 5 min drive to the Trail of 100 Giants, which is an easy stroll. 10/10 would come back again!

    Camped here for several days during our trip to hike Mt Whitney and surrounding areas…read more The campground was clean, quiet and in good location. Clean: Each site had a picnic bench, bear box, and fire pit. Our site was clean and ready to use. The outhouses were cleaned regularly which was awesome and much appreciated. The road to get around the campground is tighter but definitely doable. Quiet: The sites are fairly close to each other without much privacy but that is to be expected given the landscape. With that said, people were extremely respectful so you really didn't feel like you were in a campground. Location: this is the major win of this site. It was close to Lone Pine if you want to explore the town, close to the Alabama Hills and movie road, and at higher elevation and on the road to Mt Whitney. Gorgeous views of the mountains. Shade was hit or miss - some sites had trees others didn't so be prepared with a shade structure if needed. Overall awesome experience- would camp here again!

    Located about 20-30 minutes from Whitney Portal, Lone Pine is a pretty decent campground…read more Campground is located at an elevation of about 6000 feet and is helpful if/when you're trying to acclimate to higher altitude. There are 43 campsites (28 sites reservable), my friend and I was able to walk-on and have our pick at available campsites for roughly between $20-$30/night, tent camping. There are some campsites with adequate shade (not all) and located along the Lone Pine Creek -YES! running fresh, cool water! I totally forgot to make note of what sites are best, but my friend and I pitched our tent at #37 -which gave us a BEAUTIFUL view of Mt Whitney. Two cars are able to park per campsite and some sites have water faucets. Decent restrooms -smells a bit, but always stocked with the super thin toilet paper. Camp host is a super nice guy -friendly. Helped another friend of mine park/position her camper. I stayed here in the beginning of August 2020 and was already warm weather at 8AM, hot around lunch time till sunset. Pretty decent sized bear cannister/box for your use at each campsite for no additional cost.

But it was stocked with toilet paper. Other than that the campgrounds was great. I love the fact the market is reasonably priced. They have a Cafe, showers, cleaner restrooms, and a laundry facility. The campsite was beautiful. Not too many bugs. Everywhere you looked it was beautiful. There's lots of campsites nearby but not too close. Our campsite was 202, right behind the large rock and pretty close to the river. It was nice hearing the rush of water throughout the day. The bathroom was close enough except for during the the night. Knowing that bears are in the area made it really scary going in the middle of the night. Wear a headlamp, it's much better than a flashlight. The shuttle will come inside the campgrounds and pick you up near the restrooms in the main parking lot. There are a few trails for hiking (which we didn't have time to do). I do recommend if traveling with another family to work out the food situation because there's only one bear box per site. One large cooler can fir or two smaller ones. One large and one small cooler will not fit in the box. ALL food, snack, even perfume, & body spry should be put into the bear box.

    Really beautiful area to camp at. Right next to the Three rivers. There is plenty to do every day:…read morehiking, fishing, dipping in the many pools. We've been here multiple times and this time the water was very much filled with algae in the upper areas near the waterfall and cleaner as you went through towards the bridge. Make sure to test the rocks before you step on them or you might slip! Each campground spot has a fire pit (with a very annoying and disgusting swiveling grill on top), and a bear box. I would say the amount of space you get per spot is pretty spacious compared to some other campgrounds. There are potable faucets throughout the campground and bathrooms nearby. The bathroom isn't very clean and only four stalls so there is a wait sometimes but the faucets are motion sensored which is very convenient. There are a lot of interesting bugs at this camp site. And a lot of chipmunks. If they find any scraps they'll be coming back often. We had to scare them off to stop them from coming and digging into our bags. There is a ranger truck patrolling the area at all hours and will stop by your camp site to find things you're doing wrong. We got a warning for leaving out unscented (free and clear) hand soap. And the ranger picked up our trash bag with a few blow out diapers and shoved it on top of our baby food inside the bear box. If you look at the bear box label it tells you to put your kids car seats in there but you are provided a box that will not fit them and all your other stuff. Cross your Ts and dot your Is.

    Before I visited the place, I had heard of the Sequoia National Park several times throughout my…read morelife and all these mentions amounted to me believing one large fact: that the place was a sprawling, maybe never ending, sea of deep forest pageantry. And do not get me wrong, the place is in fact miles and miles and cubic centimeters of forest as commonly imagined. It had tall trees, meadows, dirt paths with twigs and shrubs all around and views so expansive the word majestic comes to mind. But after walking the same scenery for hours the beauty in green became a dull brown motif. Wood sprites might have heard my words or seen my unimpressed and tired face because Sequoia stopped being a forest of trees and green and it started to become a land of different weathers that not only gave me new challenges and vistas to experience but it also gave me beauty I had to endure. As I saw my friend Denise walk into a spherical cloud of fog, I realized that this place oscillated between being both proof of nature's magic and her jagged disposition. The fog seemed like a portal to Avalon where Pulk waited with prose, but it was also a reminder of all the sailors and drivers lost when the thickness of mist impairs good visual choices. The fog sphere was seen after Denise and I walked for hours, uphill, to see Morro Rock. As we walked up, we first passed mist that seem to have broken from a cloud. This was a sensational moment. She and. had both skydove but this is the first time where we felt like we walked through cloud veils, insetad of zooming past them with the hope of gravitiy abandon. I do not think I will ever re-feel the sensation of walking on cloud air, literally. She and I got separated. I thought I could follow the signs. But the signs were tricksters. As I walked toward the museum I saw a sign that said this way to Crescent Meadow. I did not see a sign that said this way to Crescent Meadow (pointing to the left) and this way to the Museum (pointing ahead). I assumed that because I no longer saw signs assuring me that I was on the right path, I must have gotten into the wrong one. I share this as the biggest piece of advice that I wish to give: Stay the trail, despite not having signs of reassurance that you are still in the right direction. The signs, and my broken internal compass, are both valid reasons as to why I eventually left the designated path and got lost. Like legit lost in the wilderness of Sequoia. I was not in an episode of Naked and Afraid but I did feel scared, disoriented and like I would not see my life tomorrow. Before I got to this point of panic, I arrived at a bluff of a white mountain that saw me greet miles of green pines that streched as far as the eye could see. It was a Rocky-like-triumph moment, except that I had to drag myself, as I sat, down this white mountain, but that was my survival experience that I am proud to have endured. After sliding down, I searched for paths that seemed walked on before, and found several that I had to follow and eliminae. I climbed over trees by hugging their fallen bark, and almost lost my shoe. I continued and eventually found a path and others humans. I was save for now. I got lost again but this time my survival was quicker as I walked down to the road. Rangers told me that I was not able to ride in the truck after I explained I was scared and unable to find my way twice. One of them told me to follow the road and eventually I would hit the museum. I did just that and I found my friend Denise waiting in the museum. After hugs laced with relief, she and I continued our trek to Sherman. But we got hit by rain. I had a hoodie. She did not. Her face looked beautiful covered with the remains of heavy rain. We walked and the sleet followed. We were wet, damp, and we were scared. What could be next? We could not find our path to Sherman. We waved people down, hoping that someone would take us to our car near Sherman. Eventually, we met Chester and he let us both into his car. The snow now was falling hard. She and I did not expect snow. We did not expect white to fall from the sky not when we were promised green on top of green all around. We got to the car and she drove in Snow for the first time. It was both scary and and beuatiful. I imagined that I was in snow caped mountains seeing frozen giants walk around. The night was gray. The monsters were there. She worried about us not having snow tired but still we drove down the snow covered pines, in a pilgramage to safety. Before we left the park we saw mist contrasted in the dark of the knight. It was a spooky evening, yes, the one that frames scary stories. But for us the night mist was further proof that Sequoia offers weather that is cyclical within a day. With space from the experience, I am only happythat I visited the place and was ensconsed by its many seasons. And, grateful that I survived the beauty of it all.

    Sequoia national Park is quite the experience, but I want to warn you. There is a very long drive…read moreto get up to see the sequoia trees. I believe it was roughly 45 minutes to get up there to begin to see these trees and the road was very long and windy and at one point I was for sure we were going the wrong way even though there's only one way I was for sure. But after that 45 minute drive up, you begin to see these remarkably tall, beautiful sequoia trees as far as they I can see and each one of them more breathtaking than ever we went during winter so I definitely encourage you to check and make sure that you don't need to bring snow chains because to travel to a lot of the areas in winter and other seasons, you might just need snow chains to make it My family had a great time we spent just a few hours walking around and enjoying the beautiful view the fresh Mountain air and getting a chance to interact with other people traveling from all over the country who had come to visit as well. This is also something you must add to your bucket list because even though we only got to see 1/10 of this park, we already have it put back on our bucket list to go again because there's so much more to see here truly breathtaking views and just a relaxing experience all the way around.

    I've camped at Redwood Meadow a few times, and each time, I love it more. It's almost a four hour…read moredrive from Los Angeles. The campground is small - I'd guess under 20 sites. My favorite campsite is number two, but three is right next to it and also really nice. If you're going with a larger group, book those two - they're right next to each other, and the meadow is behind them. there's a tiny creek to cross, and the meadow is behind it. It's so beautiful! These sites are away from the street too, so they're super quiet (not that many cars are driving by up there, haha). The bathrooms are pretty close to these sites too, but not close enough to smell. Speaking of the bathrooms... no showers, and no flush toilets. There are vault toilets, so be sure to bring your own toilet paper. Anytime I've ever been up there, there hasn't been any. You can park two cars at each site and they're both included in your reservation. Sometimes when I'm here, the camp hosts are strict about the 10pm quiet rule, but other times, no one seems to mind people playing music, singing, or talking all night. I guess it all depends on the camp host's mood that day. Speaking of the camp hosts, they sell firewood, but there's a market on the way up the mountain that sells it too, and there's plenty to cut down yourself once you're up there. This campground is full of trees and bushes - don't even worry about trying to find shade, haha. It's everywhere. The Trail of 100 Giants is right across the road from the Redwood Meadow campground. It's a really easy mile or so paved loop through the giant trees. Bring your camera! These trees are breathtaking. There's also a hot springs down the mountain a little way - maybe half an hour or so. Lake Isabella is about an hour down the mountain in Kernville, too.
