Summary
Reservations are required via Recreation.gov, and fees apply. Campground amenities include vault toilets, picnic tables, fire rings, and grills; however, no drinking water is available, so come prepared. RVs are allowed, but there are no hookups. Nestled in a serene forested setting with towering pines and granite outcrops, the campground is quiet and shaded, ideal for group camping. It’s close to hiking trails like the Summit Trail and Dome Rock. Best visited late spring through early fall for warm days and cool nights. A peaceful base for exploring the Southern Sierra Nevada.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
