Nestled near a visitor center, this picturesque campground offers a serene setting for nature lovers. Situated close to a scenic hiking trail leading to the majestic Grant Tree, it provides the perfect base for outdoor enthusiasts looking to explore the beauty of the surrounding area.
Site #146 stands out as a spacious, mostly flat, and elevated spot within the campground. With ample room to accommodate 2 tents comfortably, it can easily fit up to 5-6 2-person tents, making it ideal for larger groups or families. Positioned on a hill with only 2 sites, it offers a sense of seclusion and tranquility compared to the sites located below.
However, the ladies' bathroom near Site #146 leave something to be desired. With only 2 stalls available, the lack of working lights and hooks for bags can be inconvenient for campers. Additionally, the sinks do not provide any space to place personal items, requiring visitors to carry their belongings while using the facilities.

This is a beautiful campground and needs to be better looked after by patrons and park personnel. Not all campground rules followed by some patrons. Safety issues…Campfires still visibly lit/smoldering/smoking in fire pits while campsite is vacant. Camp etiquette… loud music played in neighboring campsite that the whole campground could hear until 11pm. Neighboring campers walking straight through your campsite ( without any acknowledgment) to go explore or watch the sunset.
All in all please respect the safety and experience of others.

We had an amazing first camping experience at Sunset Campgrounds site #122. We drove in at 12pm and soon after setting up we were greeted by camp rangers and they gave us the campground rules and helpful tips. Our campground was very spacious and right next to the Viola Falls hiking Trail. The women’s bathroom were kept clean but heard the men’s was not. The only downside to this campground was that it was really full and people were being noisy and using power tools to cut wood after hours. Overall, we had a great stay and will come back again.
