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.

Perfect condition.
Even though drought and wild fire makes us early withdrawal from camp site, camp site itself and service persons, like rangers are perfect. I wish I can go there as possible as.

Kings Canyon is great. I love being able to cool off in the water.

The campground is beautiful.
I was dismayed to see the many reserved campsites that did not ever get used. I don’t like having no walk up campsites. There were a lot of people that probably slept in their cars at the parking lot at roads end.

While I did enjoy the sceneries and the organization of the whole park but the sanitization of the park was horrible. They didn’t provide a sanitized bathroom. Bathrooms were filthy. There was no hand wash liquid. The showers were out of service. It was a dangerous situation. Organizers at Sentinel campground might want to give a visit to Yosemite National park and specifically Curry Village to learn a few lesson.
