While there are no garbage bins on-site and some wish for shower access, the overall experience is highly rated, with many eager to return.

This place was above and beyond our expectations. I was afraid, given the pictures on their site, that we were going to be staying in the only site without redwoods. So wrong!! There wasn’t a single site that didn’t have them. My family and I had a wonderful time sleeping under the giants, enjoying watching the Steller’s Jays by day, and the bats when they came out at night. The grounds were well kept, the bathrooms were cleaned daily, and we were literally minutes away from a small camping store.
My five year old cried about “leaving our new home” and has asked about going back every day since. This was a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone. We’ll definitely be back soon!

Great campground and very peaceful. If you are lucky to get site their creek, you can enjoy the sound of flowing water. There is a waterfall a short drive from here.

Whatever entity (hopefully it is not the NPS) manages this campground is doing a poor job. We arrived to find someone in our reserved site. He lied and said that he had reserved the site too, so we were left trying to find a ranger to resolve the matter. This proved to be quite a challenge. I won't detail it all here, but we ended up wasting several hours, and we didn't have much time in King's Canyon to start with.
If you are going to charge people to camp, then the least you can do is staff the campground.

Everything was clean and quiet… Bathroom facility was Adequate and clean… Camping spaces were spaced well apart… Parking area at campsite is only long enough for one vehicle and or RV… I had a RAV4 and an 8 foot trailer that barely fit but they do provide extra car parking in a general area

Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
Safety & rules
- Campground rules must be followed; failure may result in fines.
- Do not leave propane tanks in the park; take them home for disposal.
Local regulations
