The grounds were clean, plenty of space between sites and the staff was very friendly and very nice. We have another trip planned there in a few weeks

So few campsites are level for RV’s so choose your site carefully. Space 74 that I stayed in had great views of the lake.

We felt the grass was a little too long which caused the area to have a lot of bugs. The restroom was close and convenient, but there was no lighting anywhere near and the restrooms were not kept up well. We believe the area caused many people to use our camp site to cross to use the restroom, which made us feel unsafe and that we couldn’t fully relax because we had to watch our things and deal with this bad etiquette. In addition, we had two sites to either side of us and there were friends and were constantly cutting through our site and not respecting our camp boundary and there was no one available to address this matter.

Had a great time at horse creek and Lake Kaweah. Spent most of the day kayaking and then relaxing at the campsite. Very quiet and clean!

People next to us had two barking dogs. Once a ranger showed up I asked if they would address the issue. She said she would but then never did.

Great campground for Sequoia NP. Bathroom/restrooms as clean as you can expect for a campground. Working showers with hot water. Road noise can be heard but is not unbearable. RVs need to take note of quiet hours and shut there generators off, take note quiet hours are (10pm-6am)!!. No where to wash kitchenware for campers, many would wash there kitchenware under the fresh water spouts and in the bathrooms, not good! Campers please take a bucket and wash your dirty pots in your own campsite. Last point, the lack of campers using the wash facilities for basic hygiene was actually quite disturbing.

It was a nice campsite had a big cottonwood tree nice table fire pit course in California is beginning to get a little warm so if you don't have an AC best to stay out of the area during the summer months the lake was a little low but had a great great View very comfortable very close to Three Rivers Kings Canyon National Park Sequoia xcetera nice nice visit

This site (10) should not be used. It was so dangerous we had to leave early. The site is not level (steep incline not even suitable for walking safely, let alone a tent). Additionally there is a large drop off (at least 2 feet) onto steep slippery sand which slides under feet as one attempts to make their way to the fire pit and table. Also, when I checked in, I was told the spot was not good but no alternative was made. The danger is well known by the campsite hosts. The continued use of this site is negligent and represents an easily preventable liability. I just hope the resultant injury caused by the campsite administrators' negligence is not too severe or fatal for the future victim of this dangerous circumstance.
