About Lodgepole Campground-sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park

Lodgepole Campground is located in the breathtaking Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks in central California's rugged Sierra Nevada range. Lodgepole is perched on the banks of the scenic and lengthy Marble Fork of the Kaweah River, at an elevation of 6,700 ft. The inspiring Giant Forest Grove and the mighty General Sherman Tree - the world's largest tree in volume - are just two miles from the campground.

Great camp site - #49: large space, near the river, amphitheater, village. Neighbors were moving in and out while we stayed 3 nights.

We camped in both site 58 and site 31 during our 4 night stay in Lodgepole. Not only was the campground clean and wonderful in everyway, but the rangers were incredibly helpful and engaging with child story time and range talks every night in the amphitheater. After reading reviews from past campers, I was hesitant because of all the negative comments about the bathrooms and noise. However, the bathrooms were not bad at all AND the noise was always at a minimum. Overall 9/10 and would stay there again. We cannot wait to go back!

Campsite was fine, nice and level but near the parking lot for the visitor center. So the view is not the best. Bathrooms needed to be maintained much better.

We have been camping at Lodgepole just about every summer for 12yrs. We love it. This year we checked into to our two campsites and as usual they emphasized the need to place all scented items in the bear box. We were surprised to pull up to one of our sites having a damaged bear box. We couldn’t use it. They didn’t say a word about it being broken when we checked in. Then when I went to ask they offered to move us around each night. Obviously that wasn’t going to work. We always bring a ridiculous amount of things since we stay six days. It was rough having to shove everything into one bear box since we brought enough to fill two. A piece of the latch needed to be welded and apparently no one on staff was able to do that. They never came back to update us. I checked back in after three days and they just offered to move us again… each night. This was really disappointing. We’ve never needed any type of assistance from any of the staff in all of the years we’ve camped so it was a real let down the one time we did need them. Here’s hoping next year we get a fully functional campsite.

We spend 7 nights here in June. The site was clean and all the rangers we encountered were very friendly. Even though the site was close to the road it was still quiet and was easy to back the trailer into

General

  • If your campsite remains vacant for 24 hours after your arrival date it will be cancelled and made available on rec.gov. You will be charged for the first night's campsite fee and a $20 cancellation fee, all other fees after that will be refunded. Recreation.gov policies apply to all reservations, cancellations, refunds and date changes.  Call (559) 565-4404 if you will be arriving 24 hours after your arrival date so your site won't be cancelled. To leave a message call (559) 565-3714.Upon making a campground reservation: Site occupants agree to follow ALL campground rules. Failure to comply may result in a fine. You are responsible for your guests. 
  • Quiet Hours 10pm to 6am- Music, talking, and generators should not be audible beyond your immediate campsite. Unreasonable noise is prohibited any time of day.
  • Tire Chains may be required at any time. Be prepared at any time of year for a wide range of temperatures and weather conditions. Check Road Conditions at nps.gov/seki . Vehicles longer than 22 feet (including trailers) are not advised between Potwisha Campground and the Giant Forest Museum. Visitors with vehicles over 22 feet in total length hoping to visit the Giant Forest or camp at Lodgepole and Dorst Creek Campgrounds are advised to enter via the northern, Highway 180, entrance to these parks.
  • Dangerous Rivers! Many drowning victims were playing near rivers. Rivers present a far greater danger than lakes or pools. Surfaces may look calm, but strong currents often run below. Be cautious walking near rivers as rocks can be slippery. Getting out of a cold, swift river is often impossible.  Falling Objects - Don't linger under dead, cracked, or broken branches. Run if you hear cracks or snapping from tree roots, trunks, or branches (know that sometimes there is no sound, and very little time to react). Report falling branches or trees to a ranger.
  • A California state fishing license is required to fish in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, and Sequoia National Forest lakes and streams. Fishing licenses may be available at National Park and National Forest markets.
