What Guests Are Saying
Fairview Campground offers a stunning location with spacious and clean campsites, many right next to the river, perfect for family activities like fishing and tubing. The camp amenities, including clean bathrooms and friendly hosts, enhance the overall experience. However, some visitors reported issues with wasps and minor inconveniences with campground management, but these did not significantly detract from the enjoyment for most guests.

The camp spots are great, the river right next to the campground and McNallys a short walk away for food or supplies. Just careful of the potholes in the road, especially at night or when entering/exiting at the same time opposite another vehicle

This campground is a favorite of my family. They really need to go through and fill the potholes.

Location was perfect. Very easy to go to and to find. The sound of nature is so calming. Flowing river plus winds moving the leaves, birds singing, it was just great. I love the water provided by the NF. Vault toilet is good, though we didn't really use it.
I just wish they have a separate collection container for recycling products such as water bottles.

The campground is clean and well maintained by the camphost who is very kind and friendly to the campers! She has been very attentive to everyone. The camp sites are well spaced between neighbors. The vault toilet seats however need to be changed. Our site #16 was awesome! We had our own river front with sandy area to put our chairs while watching kids play in the water. It was very windy when we stayed during thanksgiving week so be prepared if forecast says so because there’s no cover from it if you are tent camping. It can get really chilly too! Luckily, campfire restrictions were lifted that week. Overall, it was a very fun experience!

I've been going to the Sequoia Campgrounds for 50 years and never been disappointed. My sons and I have been going together the last 20 years and have a great time. Campsite was clean and easy access. Fishing always outstanding
