We stayed in this campground & we loved it! Very quiet lots of shade & plenty of room. Bathrooms were kept up & although there is no showers they do have flushable toilets, so that was a plus. We loved that theirs lots of deer & chipmunks. Would definitely recommend staying here.

The camp site was clean and quiet with a convenient water source. The campground was in a beautiful forest of pine and sequoia trees and a short walk to the general store, welcome center and giant redwoods.

Beautiful camp ground and well spaced out from neighbors.

Crystal Springs Campground was very nice. We used site 5, had nice shade and we slept in RV. It was quiet and saw deer coming within 30 feet. Very good central location in Kings Canyon to go all the way on 180 until roads end and to also go down Generals Highway. The information center was very helpful and generals store employees very nice. Also the restaurant people. It was a very enjoyable 4 nights we spent there.

Love this campsite #5 was prefect for our tent, theres no bathrooms unless you walk to the main store which is great because you get that feeling that you are alone up there very quiet and peaceful wildlife will walk through the campground and you might encounter deer beautiful skys in the evening and even the stars seem brighter than normal, just cross over the road and see the giant sequoias or head up the road and enjoy deep canyons and waterfalls sequoia is a must when camping

Wonderful campground in the forest. Deer will come by for dinner. Huge Sequoia Trees just around the corner.

I could not visit the campsite as the roads to the campground were barricaded and said ROAD FAILURE, but the campsite had neither notified rec.gov nor did rec.gov tell us. The campsite is unresponsive and located in an area to which the roads are extremely winding. Additionally, I paid for this campsite and am not getting a refund upon no usage. Unprofessional and poor customer service.

We loved forest bathing in the midst of the grand beautiful trees. The Forest Ranger at the Kings Canyon Station helped me to log in and get our campsite! It was super easy with his help. The campsite was very nice and clean. We had a delightful time and am looking forward to returning next month!!

Ranger werent available at 6 pm when we need them to make other campers follow the rules of no noise outside their own place. There was a lot of loud music on that night and a loudly talking the second night from this big group. We cant understand how you go to those beautiful places to get rid of the noises in the big cities and found this loud music bothering the peace of the woods.The place was very nice and the rest of things were so good.
