Thanks to the camp host Candace, we had an awesome time at Headquarters campground in Kernville last week. The grounds were clean and nice as well as the facilities. It was a very quiet week and I believe the camp hosts set the very pleasant vibe that we experienced. Will definitely utilize this campground in the future. More hosts like Candace is always a good thing!!

Headquarters has been our annual camping spot for 25 years. While the fires and big flood set us back, it has always has been a positive experience. This year was exceptional since Candace and her husband took over the management. I have never seen it so clean and orderly. They both work very hard to keep it looking that way.
