Nice sites. Excellent host. Lots of creatures and birds. Great location. Close to the center of town. But the bathrooms could be a bit cleaner.

The campground was very well maintained. However, the bathroom facilities are very dated and smelly.

Let’s first start this review with our camp host Randy. Randy was very welcoming, informative and attentive. He helped us locate our campsite and where to find restrooms. Randy was kind and overall an awesome person. Thank you Randy!
The campsite was clean, roomy, private and the river was close by. Bathrooms were close by as well and clean. We will definitely be coming back to this campsite in the near future for another beautiful and relaxing time in Kern.
