About Lodgepole Campground-sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park

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.

We camped at Lodgepole campgrounds, campsite #27 (which I think was the best campsite in A and B loops. It was away from the traffic, all the way back with campsite only on one side. Near the market, showers, and visitor center (couple minutes walk), super close to campsite flushable restrooms.

This specific site makes you feel like you're literally on an island. There is parking for one car and will fit at most 2 tents. Its small in size but plenty of shade and next to the starting boulder of Tokopah falls trail. Would definitely stay at this site again.

Campsite 144 had a gorgeous view. Just make sure you go prepared with some sort of cover for shade as the sun hits the site. The tent pad is a flat area. Also site 143 has its fire pit extremely close to the tent pad.

I recommend Sites 91 and 92 for group camping otherwise, you'll be very close to neighboring campsites. Fortunately, the campers next to us spent most of their time with another group, so it felt more private.
I was initially confused by the parking information on the website because it stated there was only one parking space, but Site 92 actually has two. The site backs up to the forest, and we frequently saw deer passing through. Although we didn't have a river view, we could still hear the river in the distance, which was very relaxing.
The bathrooms are conveniently close, and the rangers regularly drove through the campground to make sure everything was running smoothly. I have AT&T and had absolutely no cell service. The drive to the giant sequoias was only about 5–7 minutes

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.
