Moraine Campground (CA)

Good

Good

The bear boxes and fire rings were in excellent shape. Water at the spigots was good quality ... not rusty or cloudy as one often sees in campgrounds. The restrooms were clean, stocked with TP, and obviously well maintained. I also appreciated the morning/afternoon walk through that was made by the staff.

The campsite was a quick drive to Road's End Trailhead where we started our backpacking trip. The backcountry permit office is at Road's End too, along with a great swimming hole along the King's River! The campground itself was quite beautiful, with lots of pine trees and shade. We were close to all the amenities; bathroom, potable water, trash bins, etc. A very curious bear wandered very close to our campsite. We had all of our food secure in the bear bins, so it wasn't a problem.

beautiful location, close to visitor center and trails and river, bathrooms cleaned daily and good clean water. Downside is not much privacy and pretty compact sites. People up pretty late being loud and using flashlights which woke me up a couple times.

We found a mostly empty campground after seeing that all the signs said it was completely booked and having a difficult time booking online. then there was a bear in the campground. then the water main broke.
the campground itself was fine but our site had very little shade and the booking website wasn't working properly when we tried to book it.
overall, I feel like we could do better. don't you, recreation.gov?

Loved the clean restrooms with flushable toilets. We also enjoyed how close it was to the river, store, and nearby attractions such as Muir rock.
