Super empty this time of year. Cool place to fish, kayak, or paddle board. Fire pits (but no wood for sale), fresh drinkable water, bathrooms with hot showers, RV dump station, fish c cleaning station, trash bin available. Pretty mountain views, and easy access to the lake. ***Road noise is a thing. This place is located right off of the HWY.

My truck breaks down as I get here and I need it to tow my trailer and don’t have the money to have someone else to tow my trailer out of the county. The manager of the campgrounds can’t wait until the truck is fixed so I can leave. She just threatened to kick me out the next day by noon and I lose everything I own in my trailer and my pets!

My truck breaks down as I get here and I need it to tow my trailer and don’t have the money to have someone else to tow my trailer out of the county. The manager of the campgrounds can’t wait until the truck is fixed so I can leave. She just threatened to kick me out the next day by noon and I lose everything I own in my trailer and my pets! And I am permanently kicked out by that manger of the campgrounds. Otherwise the couple on site are wonderful people and they do a great job keeping that place clean, and safe.

Beautiful area to camp. Stopped and drove around to see the camp host ( ranger) paid cash for our spot and parked. The Ranger / host said he would be over with the paperwork for the RV site later.

The Ranger / host said he would be over with the paperwork for the RV site later. He never showed up so kind of thought that was strange being there were only 3 campers the entire night. The place was beautiful but very cold especially at night but was nice. Didn’t really get a chance to go out and do much exploring. The bathrooms seemed n nice and clean no showers or laundry available. We would definitely stay again if passing through.

I've been coming here for years, but not at paradise cove. These are pics from around the area. A beautiful reservoir, great hot springs, a gorgeous canyon and several small and welcoming communities around the lake. It's also the "back door" to Sequoia NP with excellent camping along the entire river. General Sherman tree is only 30 miles from here. This is a paradise for many many people to shar...
