We have visited this location on several occasions and have consistently enjoyed our experiences. All necessary amenities are conveniently situated within walking distance, including an exceptional burger establishment, a well-stocked store, and a restaurant featuring a bar and live musical performances.

Great location on the Kern River and right next to Johnny McNally's Lodge with great steaks a little hotel and general store. Bring some portable shade as most sites have very little, But hands down this is my favorite place along the Kern.

Really a great campground on the banks of the roaring Kern River. One caveat: Jets from Edwards Air Force Base scream overhead on weekdays, up the canyon, shattering the peace and quiet. They flew over 4-16 times/day while we were there and one NEVER gets used to itjust ask the locals. Seems like the military could find a less-populated canyon to practice their little war games. Its really loud when the fly over.

This a fantastic campground. Maury, the camp host, was friendly, helpful and always cruising the campground.. Got a bit of snow but we were toasty warm inside the teardrop. Had the campground to ourselves probably due to the snow. The asphalt at some of the sites is getting pretty torn up and could use a refresh.

I started camping along the beautiful Kern River with my son when he was 16 and he is now 21, and the magic of those nights under the stars talking around the campfire is still the best a dad could ever ask for. Waking to the sound of the river and then fishing hard all day is what it's about! The beauty of the sky, boulders, water and time together, and yes even catching a few fish, is what we look forward to all year until it's time to return again. Fairview Campground and the wild Kern River are forever etched in my memory. What a special place to spend a few, very fast days with someone you love. It's such a long, long time to be gone and a short time to be there.

Popular campground. Small trailers ok. Be aware that pavement is lined with large rocks which limits ability to maneuver large trailers.

All about the spot you get here. River spots are exponentially better than the rest and made out trip truly spectacular.
