We reserved a space online (36) as we had been there 3 weeks prior to check it out. Showed up at 11pm and the camp host gave our space to someone else when they got there.
Would have been 5 stars had that not happened. Place has been great each time....just sucks expecting something and not having that met when you arrive. I prepaid online also, so it made absolutely no sense why he did that.

Headquarters is a beautiful campground along the banks of the Kern River. The site has clean vault restrooms. trimmed and healthy trees, and nearby stores & restaurants a couple miles away in Kernville. Access to fishing along the river or Lake Isabella is convenient.

the host was super friendly and patient, he mentioned that glass is allowed so don’t take glass, the place is ok, there is a river really close to the campground, a lot of trees, and a lot of wildlife, I liked it

I love everything about this campsite. The website should be updated to read "water may be turned of from October to ???, to alleviate potential pipe issues. I had no problems because I always bring my own water, but our friends were not prepared.
