RVs and trailers are not recommended on Mineral King Road and are not permitted in campgrounds. Mineral King is not connected to the rest of Sequoia National Park by roads.

First time camping at the Cold Spring campground. We were staying whole 7 days so we booked whatever was available which was one of walk-in sites. Did not like the set up of camp site 39 because your neighbors have to walk through your site to access their site. I am sure they can move things around to make it more accessible to the neighbors.
Other than that we enjoyed the how isolated it was, and surrounding hike trails were the best. Definitely coming back but reserving different site perhaps.

A perfect campground to stay the night before a backpacking trip out of Mineral King! It was peaceful and quiet at night with the sound of the creek!

Loved camping here!! Make sure to give yourself extra time on the way up, take it slow, be safe. Campsite #12 is on a hill but has level tent pads. It would be nice if the bear box and picnic table were on the same level. Plenty of shade and clean restrooms (vault toilets so there can be some smell at times).
