Absolutely gorgeous backdrop, shade with trees, firepit, great proximity to visitor center, … even a skirmish with a camping neighbor(s) conflicting over areas was handled with kindness and professionally.

Arrived at my site to find it occupied. There was no ranger or anyone else in the check-in office to help me. I reserved another site. I called to get a refund on the first site and waited on hold for over an hour before giving up.

The site itself is spacious and easily accommodated our tent trailer. The reason for the only 1 star review is because the site is in solid sun… from sunrise to sunset. There is no shade and relief throughout the day. We had to leave after one full day as we could not tolerate the constant sun exposure.

Great campground in Kings Canyon National Park - location is a good middle point to explore both parks! Clean campground amenities, and just two minutes away from the Kings Canyon visitor center with a small convenience store & restaurant, you almost don't even need to bring your own food with you. I would definitely stay here again.

This campsite is beautiful. We had an amazing time. Definitely check out Grant Grove which is just 3 minutes down the rode. There is a visitor center with a small market close by as well. We definitely will be back again.

Good site. It is a bit close to its neighbors 51 and 53. 53 especially seems to have their tent pad/setup very close to 52's picnic table/fire pit, but we had respectful neighbors. Even though parking is shared with 51, their table and tent pad are further away.
Tent site that made the most sense is a bit away and down in a dip ~30 feet from the picnic table away from the road, but mostly flat and our tent was fine.
Very close to the bathrooms and water spigot, but not right next to them thankfully (1 camp site buffer between each of them).
Shared parking with 51, might be tight if you both end up with big trucks. A Camry and midsize SUV fit fine.
