My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time out here! Site 10 and 11 are really close, so if youre going with some friends, have them get the one you dont reserve. These sites are on a small slope. Our 6 person 10x10 tent barely fit in the allocated tent pad and was still a little too close to the fire pit for my comfort.The campsite is quite a ways out on Mineral King Road and even without active construction, it was quite the curvy drive. I suggest giving yourself an extra half an hour of cushion on top of what you already think the drive will take (for us it was about 2 hours on the way up and 1.5 hours on the way down)The ranger did let us know that the 1 mile hike to the east was the easiest of the trails (its also the trail that leads to the other trail heads) so this campsite is honestly perfect for a chill hiker. That 1 mile hike did have a few steep moments with some puddles and the occasional muddy section, so just be prepared!Overall, Id definitely go again, just maybe without bringing a furry friend along (as they arent allowed on any trails and arent allowed off leash).

If you are not obsessed with the main attractions in the Sequoia national park, it is a wonderful place to be! It is a bit secluded (~1.5 hr drive through mountains) from the park's main entrance, so we decided to explore near the campground without getting into the main park. It was beautiful and many great hiking trails around. We came when marmots are very active (we saw several throughout the camp including one near the campground). Thankfully, a ranger told us about a place where free tarps are collected from the previous visitors. There were several available when we got there, but it is first come first serve, so you may want to check it first. There was no sink or shower, but the restroom itself was very clean and well-maintained.

First off, this is a beautiful campground! It's very shady, too, although there were a lot of bugs in late June. As many other people have said, though, sites are small and it's a 2-hour drive (one way) to get to the main entrance station to Sequoia NP. It's a great place to chill and close to some excellent hiking trails. However, I made our reservation for two vehicles. I was allowed to do that and checked multiple times online to ensure we would be allowed to park 2 cars there. Both cars fit in our little campsite driveway 100% -- no overflow to the road, not blocking anything/anyone else, etc. But in the morning, we were told that we could only have one car after all, and the other car would have be be parked .25-.5 miles away in the overflow areas. I would have picked a different campground if this info had been given in the first place. It seems ridiculous to enforce this arbitrary and inconvenient rule, which is also not posted anywhere, which we were given no notice of, and which has 0 effect on other campers or the natural area. I also agree with another reviewer who commented that there are rangers who will go out of their way to find things you've done "wrong"! Food is only supposed to be 5 feet away and when the ranger came around, she made a big deal of pointing out food that was maybe 10-15 feet away on our picnic table, literally handed me the mosquito repellent that was sitting nearby on our (illegal second!) car, etc. It's a fairly busy campground, it was mid-morning, and we were close to all our stuff, so the ranger's reaction seemed unreasonable. In my years of camping in the national parks, I've never encountered such an intrusive ranger. I know most of this review is about the annoying stuff, but it really is a gorgeous place. Just cross your fingers they haven't changed any of their rules!
