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.

We really enjoyed the campground. It was clean and closed to so many places. We stopped by Knapp’s cabin, Grizzly falls, Roaring river falls, and the Boyden cavern which was so fun. The campground was near the river so the kids had fun soaking their feet in the calm areas of the river. Overall a great experience.

Sentinel campground this year was as beautiful as always. Our children enjoyed it to the fullest and of course the views were amazing per usual. Would really like for the park to install lights in the restrooms like in Yosemite, a little too dark as is right now.

Nice flowing river, big camp site but enough toilets. No cell but very shaded and great location close to roads end.

The local store closes at 6, so if you plan to buy locally sourced firewood there keep that in mind. We arrived at 7pm and would have missed out on a first night campfire but fir the generosity of our campsite neighbors. A ranger or camp host was nowhere to be seen. Senteniel did have close proximity to the ranger station and when we visited in the morning the ranger was very friendly.
