My first ever camping experience and that too this beautiful campground. It is located near Kings Canyon. Make sure to have offline maps downloaded as there is no network for any carrier. Its very clean with good amenities. There is not a lot of food options in the area. The drive is just marvelous and you have the view of south Fork kings river. Easily accessible from campground as well.

Ok place. Sites are decent size. Restroom a little small for size of campground and may get crowded at peak season. River can be heard while sleeping, but so can road. Was there 10/5/19 and only 1 section open. Only about 30 or 40 sites occupied so plenty of open sites. Bear boxes, tables, and fire rings in site.
