Onion Valley Campground

No potable water but there is a creek nearby . Picnic tables , bear box , fire pit w grill rack. What I like most about the site is you’re not super close to your neighbors. I would camp there again . Mosquito was very minimal at the time of my visit. Pit toilet but I’m not sure how clean it was since I never did use the bathroom. Only spent 1 night and we got there around 5pm. Next day we left early due to we’re backpacking to Rae lakes .

Nice campground that was not too big. It is next to great hiking to a few lakes. It is at 9600 ft so air is a little thin, took about a day to get acclimated. Bathrooms are very clean and smell nice. Hiking in the area is great, lots of trails and can spend all day by one of the several small lakes. There are some areas where you can bacpack to and setup camp. The hike is moderate, the initial climb from the campground is a pretty long incline that gets you to almost 11k feet. Great spot to spend the weekend.

Top rate view unlike no other. Great sites mostly. No water so bring or filter. Waterfall view multiple creeks site 13 we stayed mostly shady a little sloped but not bad. Overall a amazing campground at one of the many gateways to the Sierras.

I really with they had drinkable water on the campsite, that is all that's missing. Also our reserved campsite was not properly marked by whoever is running it so other people had it occupied at the time of our arrival. They had to move out, but would have rather not done that if sites were properly marked. Other than that it was fantastic: clean toilets, wood on site, safe. We did not have any wild animal encounters, only chipmunks and squirrels :) gorgeous drive to the campsite high up on the mountain. Loved Evey second of it!

One of the most beautiful campgrounds I've ever seen in my life. The mountains are breathtaking, and the camps themselves are nestled deep in their sides. There are creeks and waterfalls surrounding everything, and a few hours' hike further up into the mountains leads to a trail that plunges all the way into the mountain range, going on for days and passing half a dozen lakes. The campgrounds are well-maintained, with clean areas and abundant firewood. It was the greatest vacation I've ever been on.

Beautiful high altitude camping. No water. But worth it.
