This site is right next to the river. Super quite.

We were enchanted by this "bonita" campsite. The river was rushing, and the bathrooms were clean and nearby. Definitely bringing a fishing pole next time, I'll be back. I suggest bringing a wheelbarrow, like someone else said.

The site is nice, right on the river, water spigot near, but it is also right on a path and small. Nearest restrooms were closed and porta potties added.

Nice campground with lovely trees around. Glad to see that there were bear boxes everywhere to protect our food.Unfortunately, some of the buildings, e.g. Gift Shop, were closed at the Lodgepole area except for Friday-Sunday this late in the season. We visited Sequoia National Park in mid-October.

Great site with a ton of space! Bring something to help you carry all your camping gear like a wagon or something. It will save you trips and your back.

Great spot, its near the restrooms and the site is right next to the river. Downside is you do get a bit of foot traffic since its next to the walkway and also deposing of trash is a bit of a walk.
