Great group campsites. We had reserved 2 sites, but only one bathroom was open unlocked. It could have been cleaner.

We ended up having a smaller group than expected at this group campsite but had a blast nonetheless. Lots of picnic table space, water access, and our own flush toilets. We brought lawn type games and had a lot of fun using all the open space.
We didn’t do any hikes and the SY River was dry (early Oct) but we had a nice morning stroll up the dry creek bed as far as we could go. I appreciated the rangers stopping by, we bought a bundle or two of firewood from them.
Great site for groups, would love to camp again.

We ended up having a smaller group than expected at this group campsite but had a blast nonetheless. Lots of picnic table space, water access, and our own flush toilets. We brought lawn type games and had a lot of fun using all the open space.

This review is on recreation.gov not Sage Hill campground.
We paid 400.00+ for a group site and could not attend our 2019 Thanksgiving reservation because of the Cave Fire in Santa Barbra. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/26/us/cave-fire-santa-barbara.html
Recreasion.gov refused a refund 3 times.
