We enjoyed our visit to Sequoia (June 10-14, 2024). We towed a 22 travel traveler, and we came in through the South entrance. Potwisha was our only option in the park for camping as we were restricted from going further north with the trailer (it was fine with just the truck!). The dump station across the road was very clean and convenient, and Three Rivers (to the South) wasnt farfor ice/gas/etc. It was very hot, so I appreciated that we could use our generator. The campground wasnt crowded and it was quiet. The River nearby was high and roaring. We really liked Site 17big tree for shade and felt private on the door side of the camper. The free shuttle in the park works greatcomes frequently to the various stops. However, you have to drive from Potwisha north to Giant Forest Museum to park to get to the first shuttle stop (that continues north)this beautiful drive is about 30 minutes. From there we took the shuttle and enjoyed Sherman Tree (can be crowded) and hiked The Congress Trail (You have to see The Senate and The House and others!), and to Lodgepole Village (hike to the waterfall and get huckleberry ice cream afterwards), and Wuksachi Lodge (great place to sit on the porch and relax and use WiFi to catch up on email/texts). Lodgepole Village has showers and laundry. We also recommend taking the gray shuttle line from the Giant Forest Museum (or your own vehicle if you go early8am or so) to Moro Rockall ages did this hike up the stairs. You many need bug spray. Then head on to Tunnel Log (drive your own vehicle through it for a picture), and then to Crescent Meadows where you can hike. This road has a very quiet feel and is surrounded by the breath-taking beauty of the Giants. We found 3 nights and 2 full days about the right amount of time for the 2 of us (age 70) in the park. From there we drove to Yosemite!

Everyone was friendly and the flush toilets were great. A few trails near by but it is a 40minute drive or so up to the main sights in Sequoia

Stayed here for only 1 night and it was a very good experience. First time in Sequoia National Park and I will definitely be coming back to stay at this campground and explore the park. Site 17 was perfect for my pop up camper and it was as drive thru so we did not have to back it in. Bathrooms were clean.

Nice campsites. Quiet during off-season (Halloween). Bathrooms ok -- could use a second sink, and a shelf. No water except at restrooms. Slop sink at restrooms. Campfires not allowed. Campground access to Marble Falls Trail.
