Headquarters

This spot is closer to the road than their map indicates; which is pretty loud during the day. And even though there's less traffic at night, the large trucks will wake you as they go by. The spot was decent all by itself. We did have a slanted table. We had to prop our stove up with a cutting board so pans wouldn't slide off.

However, the worst parts were that there were no showers. That's on us, we should have checked - we just assumed they'd have them.

But worst of all, there wasn't enough blue stuff in the toilets and it made a decent camp trip into one where we DREADED having to answer the call of nature.

The toilets were disgusting. It smelled so bad. And what we had to look at was stomach-turning. Assuming that the toilets should be serviced every day as the chart in there indicated, it was not being done. Toilet paper wasn't being replaced, there was poop on the floor and the wall. By the end of our stay, there was toilet paper and beer bottles strewn about; not just down inside the toilet but in the bathroom where the camp host could easily have picked them up.

The camp host was very confrontational. I had reserved two sites for Wednesday through Saturday and leaving Sunday am. I couldn’t make it on Wednesday so I showed up on Thursday. He told me I was a day late before even saying hello! Other things happened between the camp host and my friends. He was accusatory without any evidence and threatened my friend that he’ll see to it that he’ll never get a spot there again. I don’t know what’s wrong with him.

Campsites are very small. Limited shade on most sites. Sadly, there was a lot of trash and litter laying around. Our site was visited constantly by skunks who were unafraid of people. Great location on the Upper Kern.

Had site 20, the beach entrance was right in front of us. Family had a great time, if you go tubing walk up the road to the next campsite and you’ll see a sign that says ‘River Entrance.’ It’s a fun ride back to your campsite.

Love Headquarters Campground! we've gone now 4 times in last 3 years. We love Loop C all the back sites. We use site 13 the most. Great access to the river. It's our own little oasis. The grounds are clean and hosts are great. We have never had any problems. We brought our grandkids and nephews this visit. This site is great for the kids. they can play in the water without worrying about the rapids on the other side of "island". We are making this our annual vacation spot.

Great campground! River access is super convenient and the river was calm along that stretch.
