What Guests Are Saying
Sentinel Campground offers a beautiful setting with spacious, shaded sites and proximity to the river, making it ideal for hiking and outdoor activities. Many visitors appreciate the serene atmosphere and the campground's access to nearby amenities, such as the store and ranger programs. However, the facilities, particularly the restrooms, are in disrepair and require maintenance, which detracts from the overall experience.

You might consider recommending limiting open fires. With a lack of wind the air quality was in the very unhealthy range. PM2 levels were way up there. I know open fires are a part of camping but most wood burning can absolutely ruin the air quality

Great time, site 19 was awesome. Muir rock is a close drive away and was a fun place to jump into the river.

We have camped at Sentinel Campground for over 20 years and always a good experience .
This year a little different because of other campgrounds being closed so even harder to get reservations for time we usually plan for family vacation of 16 + people. More bear activity but rangers were on top of patrolling and as usual very professional.

Best campground I’ve ever been to. Hot showers, small restaurant and lodge across a gorgeous bridge. Scenery is spectacular and only a short hike away. Highly recommend!
