Pictures on Website are not accurate at all. 94 site had no privacy and 90% of trees have been cut down. Restrooms were close by but very dirty. Men’s urinal was so dirty and looked like it has cleaned been cleaned in months. No Host at entrance to welcome you.

Although site 38 has a pretty view, it is right on top of the site next to it (site 40), with no privacy. Because of this, I don't recommend this site unless you know for a fact that the adjacent site 40 will remain unoccupied.

We arrived right before sunset and the sunset was simply so spectacular. Toilet is clean and campsite is spacious.

The campsite was large. Really large compared to others I've been to. However there was almost no horizontal space to pitch a tent. The picnic table was on rocks on one side but even that didn't make it level. The only thing close to level was the bear box and the parking pad.

Amazing campground with a bona fide Sunset view! If you camp close to the rim, you get an incredible nighttime view as well of the valley cities below. Sunset is really close to the Grant Grove and its proximity makes the campground a great choice for people wanting a Big Tree Grove experience. I would definitely go back.
