I was in campsite #42. I liked the easy access to the restroom, water faucet about 100 feet away. The site had a slight grade, about 1~2%, but not too bad. Shade was very nice. The loop roads are in need of maintenance: in several places, tree branches have forced up the pavement so much that low-ground-clearance vehicles like a Prius might actually scrape on these bumps. NOTE: There is no electricity in the restrooms, so you need to bring a flashlight after sunset. There is a dishwashing sink behind each restroom. Most of the parking pads are very small, maybe 22', and only 7 or 8 of the sites can accommodate an RV longer than this. Make sure you verify the size of the parking pad is big enough to take your vehicle.
When I was there, the Kings River canyon was full of smoke from the two fires that were burning in the area, so I left the second day and forfeited the other three nights. Smoke was too thick and giving me a sore throat. Sad, but this wasn't the campground's fault.

We camped in site 42 the night before starting a backpacking trip on the Rae Lakes Loop. The site was large enough to be comfortable for our group of 5; there was a water spigot nearby; a sink for rinsing dishes was nearby; the restrooms were clean; and camping among the Sequoia was sublime!

This campground is quite and close to river. Amenities are enough and close by. You need to drive about one hour after entering the kings canyon national park. Roads are winding, so pay extra caution if you drive at night. Enjoy your trip here
