Sequoia Mountain Farms

80 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · Miramonte, CA

Welcome campers! PLEASE read all of the below before booking and screenshot/print the BELOW DIRECTIONS, as google and other mapping apps have taken guests on very difficult routes. Trust us, mapping apps don't account for the issues of small mountain roads! We have over 10 acres of stunning campground nestled only 15-20 minutes from the North entrance to the Sequoias! We have multiple sites to accommodate every type of camping from tent camping to tents-attached-to-cars and trucks, to pop-up campers to RVs with or without power and water hookups. Please see our RV hook-up spaces on our sister post! (RV sites at Sequoia Mountain Farms). There are wonderful views down into the valley, at night with sunsets off-the-hook, and city lights twinkling in the valley distance. We have multiple sites for large groups. Hot showers now available for all campers at no extra charge! We offer three sizes of campsites with different prices and capacities explained below. SMALL: Price includes 1 vehicle, and up to 3 people. Extra vehicle: $7/night/per vehicle (unlimited number allowed, but may need to park on the campground road, nearby). Extra person: No extra persons allowed in small sites (3 max). Small site #s (9, 11, 13, 14, 15, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 25, 26, 27, 28, 31, 32, 35, and 36) MEDIUM: Price includes 1 vehicle, and up to 3 people. Extra vehicle: $7/night/per vehicle (unlimited number allowed, but may need to park on the campground road, nearby). Extra person: $10/night (maximum of 10 persons allowed in medium sites). Medium site #s (3, 5, 8, 16, 18, 29, 30, 33, 34, 37) LARGE: Price includes 2 vehicles, and up to three people. Extra vehicle: $7/night/per vehicle (unlimited number allowed, but may need to park on the campground road, nearby). Extra person: $10/night/per person. (20 person max in large sites). Large site #s (1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 12, 17, 24) Sites 1, 6 and 24 can accommodate RVs/trailers without any hookups. If you need hookups, then see our RV sites. We have two of them. DIRECTIONS: Navigator apps push anyone coming from the south up the 245 highway north. It is a very winding and slow climb up the hill. It's doable (even for large rigs), but we HIGHLY recommend continuing north on highway 99 towards Fresno and then heading east on highway 180 up the mountain. It's faster, much more scenic and a smoother drive. This route also goes right by the nearest gas station on your way up! To avoid some of the less desirable routes, we recommend navigating to the last stop for gas first, and then to the property. Coming east on highway 180, out of Fresno, that gas station is a Valero at 35468 E Kings Canyon Rd. (aka Clingan's Junction). From there, DO NOT INPUT OUR STREET ADDRESS, or you will end up at our neighbor's property to the north (the Federal Fire Work Center). Instead: - Go to Google Maps (not google search) - Search for Sequoia Mountain Farms Campground - Click on Directions - We are located exactly where our icon appears on Google Maps, and this will take you there. Assuming there are no road closures we recommend the following as the most desirable route. From Clingan's, head east on the 180 for exactly 13.8 miles to the 245 highway (it comes up quick with only 1 or 2 small signs), make a right, heading south. If you hit the park entrance, you went too far, turn around drive back about 5 min and look for the 245 on your left. Once on the 245 heading south, go 5.1 miles. On your right you will pass the 'Pinehurst Lodge', which is on google maps, an easy reference point and is 1 minute or less away (great food!). Then a few seconds later the U.S Forest Service "Work Center" is on the right and we are just past that on the same side of the road. First you will see a Giant Sequoia Tree in the front yard (campground road is just to it's right with orange cones on either side) then the apple ranch with the ole loggers cabin chimney from the late 1800s still standing in the front yard directly off the highway! If you hit the 'leaving sequoia national forest' sign and the community center, you went too far, turn around and drive 1 minute back and look for the apple ranch on your left, pass it and then turn left after the Sequoia tree into the gravel road with the orange cones (for sites CG01 - CG37). If you rented RV1 or RV2, then your entrance is just to the left of the orange cones. ARRIVAL: Entering the property, through the orange cones, the road will go slightly downhill and curve to the left. Stay to your left and you will run into the restrooms on your left. Use the property map to locate your site, set up and enjoy. A host is usually around working somewhere and makes multiple rounds on the camp daily. Please take note of the posted pics from directly across the street facing what you will see when you get here. The address sign is posted on a tree and you can see the apple orchard and ole loggers chimney from the road off to the left and the Giant Sequoia Tree on the right of the address sign with the main entrance just to the right (north) of the tree (with the orange cones). There are 3 gates.: TENT SITES CG01-CG37: The FAR RIGHT GATE (north gate), just to the right of the Sequoia Tree, goes to the campsites! Look for the graveled road with orange cones / solar lights easily visible from the road. RV SITES RV1 and RV2: The MIDDLE GATE (just to the left of the campground road, and to the right of the address sign and mailbox) is for the two RV hook up sites in the big pad / yard directly off the road. These are back in sites, no pull-through access. HOUSE RENTAL: The FAR LEFT and southern most gate (to the left of the address sign and mailbox) is closest to the apple ranch and chimney; leads to the house which is also a rental. CAMPERS, PLEASE DO NOT APPROACH THE HOUSE OR BACK YARD UNLESS INSTRUCTED OTHERWISE. Thank you for understanding. We look forward to seeing you soon at Sequoia Mountain Farms!!! :) Please message us for any questions! We are happy to help! We want you to have the best experience possible, so if we can help, we definitely will! Also, please check the weather online before you come up to the mountain! Just know we are operating under the assumption that you are aware of the conditions and are prepared for them. If nature happens message us and we will do our best to assist! :)

Haven Lake

3 sites · RVs, Tents151 acres · Auberry, CA

Welcome to our serene and secluded campsite, nestled within 150 acres of pristine wilderness, where nature's beauty remains largely untouched and untamed. As you venture into this enchanting oasis, you'll be greeted by a tranquil 4-5 acre lake teeming with bass and catfish, providing the perfect setting for leisurely fishing or simply basking in the calming presence of the water¹. Surrounding the lake, a sprawling 20-acre meadow unfolds before your eyes, adorned with a dazzling array of wildlife and wildflowers. This vast expanse offers ample opportunities for exploration, whether you wish to embark on a leisurely stroll or engage in spirited frolics among the flora and fauna. The campsite features numerous hiking trails that meander through the captivating landscape, revealing breathtaking scenic vistas at every turn. With each step, you'll be immersed in the enchanting sights and sounds of the wilderness as you forge your own path through this magical haven. Located a mere 9 miles from Shaver Lake and 20 miles from the Dinkey Creek recreation area, our campsite provides a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life while still offering convenient access to popular outdoor destinations. However, it's worth noting that dirt roads are the only means of reaching our hidden gem, so we highly recommend a 4x4 vehicle for navigating the more rugged areas closer to the lake. And for those of you making the journey from Fresno, you'll be pleased to know that our campsite is only a 50-minute drive away, allowing you to swiftly trade city life for the serenity of nature. So pack your bags, gather your loved ones, and join us at our enchanting wilderness campsite for an unforgettable adventure! For those keen on amphibian observation, the lake has been known to host riveting debates between frogs and newts, discussing the pros and cons of living life on the edge (of the water, that is). The squirrels in the area are known to have an underground nut exchange market, where they trade acorns and pine nuts based on market demand and seasonal fluctuations. Deer residing in the meadow have been spotted engaging in synchronized leaping competitions, often accompanied by an audience of birds providing a rhythmic, tweet-filled soundtrack. The raccoons in the vicinity are master recyclers, often seen sorting through campsite leftovers and hosting workshops on how to properly repurpose human waste. Just don't ask them about their black mask fashion choices. Owls perched high in the trees have been known to host nightly storytelling sessions, recounting tales of the forest and its inhabitants to any creature willing to lend an ear or a wing. Chipmunks residing in the area have an annual burrow decorating contest, where they compete to create the most welcoming and cozy living spaces using only natural materials found in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Black bears occasionally hold impromptu forest yoga classes, emphasizing the importance of balance and flexibility in both the animal kingdom and their own pursuit of berries and fish. Bald eagles have been observed conducting aerial acrobatics shows, drawing impressive loops and dives in the sky as other birds watch in awe and envy. Local foxes have established a covert network of underground tunnels¹¹, used for their exclusive, secret society meetings where they discuss cunning strategies and share tales of their latest mischievous exploits.

The Mountain Chapel Campground

13 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents25 acres · Badger, CA

While on a family backpacking excursion through Sequoia King’s Canyon National Park, and the surrounding area, we came across this charming campground. A long-forgotten chapel in the mountains that was formerly a summer camp. From here, a short 15-minute drive will take you directly to the main entrance of Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Park for access to the Giant Sequoias at Grant Grove and the Grant Grove Village. For those who prefer to travel off the beaten path, a short 30-minute hike will take you to the National Forest. We are excited to invite you to camp at this hidden gem, while we undertake to restore the campground to its original splendor. Easy drive to available parking, with easy access and pull through drive for any vehicle, even with trailers. For campers bringing their own tents, we provide beautiful and well- shaded sites with level ground, soft grass, tucked underneath the many old-growth trees.

Sequoia Mountain Farms

80 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · Miramonte, CA

Welcome campers! PLEASE read all of the below before booking and screenshot/print the BELOW DIRECTIONS, as google and other mapping apps have taken guests on very difficult routes. Trust us, mapping apps don't account for the issues of small mountain roads! We have over 10 acres of stunning campground nestled only 15-20 minutes from the North entrance to the Sequoias! We have multiple sites to accommodate every type of camping from tent camping to tents-attached-to-cars and trucks, to pop-up campers to RVs with or without power and water hookups. Please see our RV hook-up spaces on our sister post! (RV sites at Sequoia Mountain Farms). There are wonderful views down into the valley, at night with sunsets off-the-hook, and city lights twinkling in the valley distance. We have multiple sites for large groups. Hot showers now available for all campers at no extra charge! We offer three sizes of campsites with different prices and capacities explained below. SMALL: Price includes 1 vehicle, and up to 3 people. Extra vehicle: $7/night/per vehicle (unlimited number allowed, but may need to park on the campground road, nearby). Extra person: No extra persons allowed in small sites (3 max). Small site #s (9, 11, 13, 14, 15, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 25, 26, 27, 28, 31, 32, 35, and 36) MEDIUM: Price includes 1 vehicle, and up to 3 people. Extra vehicle: $7/night/per vehicle (unlimited number allowed, but may need to park on the campground road, nearby). Extra person: $10/night (maximum of 10 persons allowed in medium sites). Medium site #s (3, 5, 8, 16, 18, 29, 30, 33, 34, 37) LARGE: Price includes 2 vehicles, and up to three people. Extra vehicle: $7/night/per vehicle (unlimited number allowed, but may need to park on the campground road, nearby). Extra person: $10/night/per person. (20 person max in large sites). Large site #s (1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 12, 17, 24) Sites 1, 6 and 24 can accommodate RVs/trailers without any hookups. If you need hookups, then see our RV sites. We have two of them. DIRECTIONS: Navigator apps push anyone coming from the south up the 245 highway north. It is a very winding and slow climb up the hill. It's doable (even for large rigs), but we HIGHLY recommend continuing north on highway 99 towards Fresno and then heading east on highway 180 up the mountain. It's faster, much more scenic and a smoother drive. This route also goes right by the nearest gas station on your way up! To avoid some of the less desirable routes, we recommend navigating to the last stop for gas first, and then to the property. Coming east on highway 180, out of Fresno, that gas station is a Valero at 35468 E Kings Canyon Rd. (aka Clingan's Junction). From there, DO NOT INPUT OUR STREET ADDRESS, or you will end up at our neighbor's property to the north (the Federal Fire Work Center). Instead: - Go to Google Maps (not google search) - Search for Sequoia Mountain Farms Campground - Click on Directions - We are located exactly where our icon appears on Google Maps, and this will take you there. Assuming there are no road closures we recommend the following as the most desirable route. From Clingan's, head east on the 180 for exactly 13.8 miles to the 245 highway (it comes up quick with only 1 or 2 small signs), make a right, heading south. If you hit the park entrance, you went too far, turn around drive back about 5 min and look for the 245 on your left. Once on the 245 heading south, go 5.1 miles. On your right you will pass the 'Pinehurst Lodge', which is on google maps, an easy reference point and is 1 minute or less away (great food!). Then a few seconds later the U.S Forest Service "Work Center" is on the right and we are just past that on the same side of the road. First you will see a Giant Sequoia Tree in the front yard (campground road is just to it's right with orange cones on either side) then the apple ranch with the ole loggers cabin chimney from the late 1800s still standing in the front yard directly off the highway! If you hit the 'leaving sequoia national forest' sign and the community center, you went too far, turn around and drive 1 minute back and look for the apple ranch on your left, pass it and then turn left after the Sequoia tree into the gravel road with the orange cones (for sites CG01 - CG37). If you rented RV1 or RV2, then your entrance is just to the left of the orange cones. ARRIVAL: Entering the property, through the orange cones, the road will go slightly downhill and curve to the left. Stay to your left and you will run into the restrooms on your left. Use the property map to locate your site, set up and enjoy. A host is usually around working somewhere and makes multiple rounds on the camp daily. Please take note of the posted pics from directly across the street facing what you will see when you get here. The address sign is posted on a tree and you can see the apple orchard and ole loggers chimney from the road off to the left and the Giant Sequoia Tree on the right of the address sign with the main entrance just to the right (north) of the tree (with the orange cones). There are 3 gates.: TENT SITES CG01-CG37: The FAR RIGHT GATE (north gate), just to the right of the Sequoia Tree, goes to the campsites! Look for the graveled road with orange cones / solar lights easily visible from the road. RV SITES RV1 and RV2: The MIDDLE GATE (just to the left of the campground road, and to the right of the address sign and mailbox) is for the two RV hook up sites in the big pad / yard directly off the road. These are back in sites, no pull-through access. HOUSE RENTAL: The FAR LEFT and southern most gate (to the left of the address sign and mailbox) is closest to the apple ranch and chimney; leads to the house which is also a rental. CAMPERS, PLEASE DO NOT APPROACH THE HOUSE OR BACK YARD UNLESS INSTRUCTED OTHERWISE. Thank you for understanding. We look forward to seeing you soon at Sequoia Mountain Farms!!! :) Please message us for any questions! We are happy to help! We want you to have the best experience possible, so if we can help, we definitely will! Also, please check the weather online before you come up to the mountain! Just know we are operating under the assumption that you are aware of the conditions and are prepared for them. If nature happens message us and we will do our best to assist! :)

Haven Lake

3 sites · RVs, Tents151 acres · Auberry, CA

Welcome to our serene and secluded campsite, nestled within 150 acres of pristine wilderness, where nature's beauty remains largely untouched and untamed. As you venture into this enchanting oasis, you'll be greeted by a tranquil 4-5 acre lake teeming with bass and catfish, providing the perfect setting for leisurely fishing or simply basking in the calming presence of the water¹. Surrounding the lake, a sprawling 20-acre meadow unfolds before your eyes, adorned with a dazzling array of wildlife and wildflowers. This vast expanse offers ample opportunities for exploration, whether you wish to embark on a leisurely stroll or engage in spirited frolics among the flora and fauna. The campsite features numerous hiking trails that meander through the captivating landscape, revealing breathtaking scenic vistas at every turn. With each step, you'll be immersed in the enchanting sights and sounds of the wilderness as you forge your own path through this magical haven. Located a mere 9 miles from Shaver Lake and 20 miles from the Dinkey Creek recreation area, our campsite provides a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life while still offering convenient access to popular outdoor destinations. However, it's worth noting that dirt roads are the only means of reaching our hidden gem, so we highly recommend a 4x4 vehicle for navigating the more rugged areas closer to the lake. And for those of you making the journey from Fresno, you'll be pleased to know that our campsite is only a 50-minute drive away, allowing you to swiftly trade city life for the serenity of nature. So pack your bags, gather your loved ones, and join us at our enchanting wilderness campsite for an unforgettable adventure! For those keen on amphibian observation, the lake has been known to host riveting debates between frogs and newts, discussing the pros and cons of living life on the edge (of the water, that is). The squirrels in the area are known to have an underground nut exchange market, where they trade acorns and pine nuts based on market demand and seasonal fluctuations. Deer residing in the meadow have been spotted engaging in synchronized leaping competitions, often accompanied by an audience of birds providing a rhythmic, tweet-filled soundtrack. The raccoons in the vicinity are master recyclers, often seen sorting through campsite leftovers and hosting workshops on how to properly repurpose human waste. Just don't ask them about their black mask fashion choices. Owls perched high in the trees have been known to host nightly storytelling sessions, recounting tales of the forest and its inhabitants to any creature willing to lend an ear or a wing. Chipmunks residing in the area have an annual burrow decorating contest, where they compete to create the most welcoming and cozy living spaces using only natural materials found in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Black bears occasionally hold impromptu forest yoga classes, emphasizing the importance of balance and flexibility in both the animal kingdom and their own pursuit of berries and fish. Bald eagles have been observed conducting aerial acrobatics shows, drawing impressive loops and dives in the sky as other birds watch in awe and envy. Local foxes have established a covert network of underground tunnels¹¹, used for their exclusive, secret society meetings where they discuss cunning strategies and share tales of their latest mischievous exploits.
