Fairview Campground

Although the spot is Nice along the river, the place is crowded with cockroaches as soon as the evening sets in.

What an amazing place! The pictures don’t do it justice at all. The river is so close, clear and beautiful! This site especially has so much shade! Our new favorite spot!

The host, Mauricio, was very nice and helpful when I had questions about the campsite. This was my second time coming to the campsite and I would book it again. There is minimal shade so you bring your canopy. The river was right next to the campsite which was perfect for the 100-degree weather. The bathroom was well maintained and surprisingly it did not smell bad. Whatever chemical they are using for the odor freaking works! A++

I've been here a handful of times and enjoy the location. There is no reception and I hope it stays that way. Not many animals aside from bugs, bees, birds (chatty and will grab food) , squirrels, and raccoons that will grab food items if left out at night.
Most of the picnic benches are beyond repair and shameful.
Toilets have friendly flies that kinda tickle. It would be great if the toilet doors would lock, I prefer to have my morning routine alone and not with strangers. It's nice that some people bring incense sticks, the smells are not natural. Some of y'all need help.

Bring stuff to enjoy the river

Some nice spots close to the river. I recommend you bring a canopy for shade.

It’s worth the drive. It takes us 2 1/2 hrs.

An awesome experience. The person on site was nice and friendly. He really went above and beyond to assure everyone at the campsite was helped.

Great location on the Kern River and right next to Johnny McNally's Lodge with great steaks a little hotel and general store. Bring some portable shade as most sites have very little, But hands down this is my favorite place along the Kern.

We stayed at site 15 and loved it! There’s a little beach where we hung out and fished. Something of note: there’s was no shade! Some folks showed up next to us and ended up moving due to the lack of shade. So bring a pop up or you’ll fry.
