Crystal Springs Campground Mid-sized Group Sites

This site has 2 sewer caps on premise and the whole campground smelled. Grant overall campground, but site N is not it.

It was a good location. Walking distance to the General Grant Tree, the visitor center and the village. Very convenient. We had site D. Had enough flat spots for 4 tents. The bathroom is the only thing. One women’s and one men’s bathroom stall for the whole campsite. It seems the that it was getting cleaned or stocked frequently though.

Had site H. Shaded, fairly spacious, although it was pretty sloped in many spots. We were able to fit 6 tents and 15 people. Bear boxes ideally would’ve been slightly bigger but we made it work. Good location, walking distance (10 mins) to the village where there are clean bathrooms. There are only two single stall bathrooms at the campground. Not enough for a mid-sized group campground. Bathroom has a sink outside.

This site is flat and spacious, and is the highest campsite in the campground. Is on the exterior of the group campground and separated by a substantial drop and a creek from the individual campground so it's relatively private.

When we got to our campsite, someone had occupied our spot. So we had to move all their belongings outside of our campsite. A family near us didn’t have any camping etiquette, they kept crossing our area to get to the other side. Overall, it’s still a good experience..

We had a disappointing experience at Crystal Springs Campground. When we arrived at our reserved site (Lot J), another group had taken over completely (From Lot L), using both our bear boxes (which they had filled with alcohol), surrounding our fire pit with their chairs, and leaving food waste (like egg shells) out in the open, despite posted rules regarding Bears. None of them were present, but their belongings were everywhere. It took over two hours to locate a ranger, who was helpful and eventually relocated us, but by then we had already lost our entire first day... time we had planned to explore Kings Canyon, which we couldn't see at all. While the campground itself looked nice, our experience was marred by poor enforcement and lack of oversight.

One of the best campsites I’ve ever been. Bathrooms were super clean!

Very noisy with other groups around. There’s only 1 bathroom for women and 1 for men, there was always a long line. The site we were on was “K” and it is the worst site you can reserve. It shouldn’t be a site, especially for a group. It’s so small and close to the other site.

Es un lugar increíble para acampar, con una ubicación perfecta para realizar senderismo, nadar en el lago y visitar las cascadas.

We had Group site E. It was a very spacious spot. Water was across the site. Bathrooms were a swift walk away. My family had so much room to stretch our legs and play some games. Might try to make it an annual summer camp spot!
