Sentinel Campground

You’ll want lower numbered sites, the higher the number the more crowded the sites. This one is just ok.

Clean, spacious, and friendly campgrounds. A bit of a warning though - if you're looking to car-camp, the ground is not very even in the parking area you can drive onto.

Great place to stay. Huge campground but quiet at night and enough space between the campsites where you don't feel it's too busy. Not a lot of privacy, but it's a nice open space with a lot of shade. Everything is clean and well maintain.
Big trees, beautiful nature. Great experience.
The only thing I have to say is that even though I did a research and it said after a certain date I did not needed a reservation when I arrived I did needed one. And there is 0 cell service. They do have a pay phone (free) where you can call and make your reservation by phone. That was great ! I do wish they had some "first come, first serve" campsites. Other people were just leaving or parking in other location to stay the night because they had no idea they could make a reservation on site. All the sites say RESERVED, so you just assume they are all taken, but they just have them as RESERVED for online or phone reservation only. So they are actually NOT all reserved at all. it just does not make much sense to me. They do post a list of campsites reserved on the main board... A few "first come, first served" campsites would be so much easier.

This location was great. There are some great hikes and views close by. The hotel creek trail and lewis trail are really nice. There are no showers here. That's the only downside.

The closing of first come first served options for camping is both confusing and unnecessary. Fortunately, the ranger told me I needed a reservation and I had one. However, with 75% of sites available, I would not have made a reservation, assuming availability. Upon arriving, all sites were labelled as reserved even though most were unoccupied, and a sign indicated there would be no availability without a reservation - yet there was no internet for making one. This feels like unnecessary barriers to camping and lack of clarity online or in any park information. I wonder if I would have been kicked out of a not-full campground?

Awesome! It was a delight being within the trees. Since there is not much underbrush, there are just enough trees to make it feel open and private enough at the same time. And you can buy campfire wood until 9 pm from the village nearby. Would camp again.
