We don't generally stay in the campgrounds themselves, but up the road just a bit. The campgrounds are nice, they each have their own firepits, conditions permitting, and there is a toilet, not a bathroom but a toilet...imagine an outhouse but with a larger space, wooden walls and concrete floor. It's a dry camp, which means no water. I do believe there is a water spigot of non potable water if I remember correctly, so bring your own water! It's very pretty, lots of trees, a pretty little meadow and creek that runs through it (water is only in it after the snow melts until mid to late August) but the wildlife drinks from it and you can watch them if you stay quiet 🤫 Plenty of trails to hike and exploring to be done! My favorite place to be! This is not a resort! You want to camp, it's your spot! There are spots large enough for a camp trailer if that's how you wanna stay. They are kept clean, but if you stay....you pack it in you pack it out!!! Keep it clean for others to enjoy!! That and you might wake up to critters in your camp!!🦝🐀🐿🐻 From mid August to late October is Deer/Squirrel/Bear season and you will be sharing the mountain with a bunch of hunters...that's where my family and I come in 😉 I just love the clean air, the smell of the trees, the beautiful views and listening to nature!!

A sort drive from Lake Isabella & you get the best wildlife viewing, beautiful breeze, nice weather, and a quiet campground! The stars are amazing at night! The days are nice and cool! Not too many bugs or people around. Very beautiful place with a lot to offer! Fire rings, picnic table and bathrooms are provided witch is awesome! Definitely recommend checking out! There's about 5 geocaches up here to find!!

Backpacked here from Mill Creek Trailhead as a one-night backpacking trip. Campsite was empty aside from us over Memorial Day weekend which was surprising. Beautiful campground with great scenery, clean, seemed well taken care of. No water at the campground, but we used a water filter out of Mill Creek with no issues. Campsites have tables and fire pits, plenty of room for tents. Bugs weren't bad at all.

Love this place! Beautiful scenery, saw some wildlife (a doe and a fox). Close access to Mill Creek Trail. Bring your own water! No running creek/rivers. Only negative was no park rangers patrolled and consequently a bunch of wild, drunk guys were yelling and blasting their music pretty late.
