The only concern was how despite the restrictions on firewood, some camp sites were not following the rules .

It’s one of the most wonderful and well maintained campground! The camp host Ken is one of the nicest person .. I wouldn’t reserve anywhere else.

This campground is nice. Its on the Kern River so if your campsite is one of those on the river you get to enjoy it, otherwise its hard to find a spot to get near it. I've camped here twice, I will most likely find a different campground next time.
