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.

Beautiful campground with a dense canopy and scattering of Sequoia and various pine trees. Several restrooms and water spigots throughout the campgrounds, along with a larger set of bathrooms that includes a family bathroom and dish washing station. The campground is also situated on the Kings River and is accessible enough for a dip. There is a visitor center within the grounds

We camped in site 42 the night before starting a backpacking trip on the Rae Lakes Loop. The site was large enough to be comfortable for our group of 5; there was a water spigot nearby; a sink for rinsing dishes was nearby; the restrooms were clean; and camping among the Sequoia was sublime!
