Been camping here for the better part of 25 years. Almost always get the same site. This is my home away from home. Our normal site #19 got burned in a fire in the past year, very disappointing, but I know it'll come back.

Nice campground. Have to deal with the stickers but other than that nice quiet and secluded for some spots and very exposed for others. River front spots are prime.

Very quiet and relaxing area. Camp park ranger is very friendly and helpful guy. Best part was the swim in the river.

Nice little hideaway. The should if the river being so close is peaceful. Sites are spread out a decent amount. No cell signal at all. 😁

Nice campsite on the Kern river . Quiet during the week, parties on the weekend. Not too loud though, just crowded.
