This campground was great. The sites along the water with the mountains across the road make for a really cozy camp. Unfortunately, we didn't see or catch any fish, so that was a let down. We camped here late December, and enjoyed ourselves nonetheless. Kernville was a pleasantly surprising community and we got some great hot food from the grocery store.
Also, the campground host was great. He made us feel right at home and made a positive impact on our stay.

Good amenities and a nice campground, a lot colder at night than the weather forecast said thought so come prepared. Yurt was dusty and sandy but that's to be expected.

Great site and location. Fishing was a little tough due to super cold and high water levels

The campground is not bad at all. However, there was so much trash around our camp. It's a shared responsibility between the campers when they use the spots and the host to clean up after campers who have missed the mark. I would go again but would try to reserve the sites that are shadded by trees in the middle of the Camp ground.
