This is an amazing place to come and enjoy the nature but there is a lot of dirty people that doesn't respect the nature and leave trash everywhere please when you guys go make sure to take big bags to clean after your self if we want to continue enjoying here we need to take good care of the place.
Amazing, first come, first serve camp grounds right next to Kern river, trash cans avaliable(please pick up after yourselves!), Port-o-potties are cleaned semi regularly. Come early if you want to get good site next to the river. Bring plenty of food and water if you going to be here for more than a couple of days. River is pretty mellow for the most part.
