Awesome private getaway just off the main road and 10 miles away from the Kings Canyon visitors center. We had a large group (9 adults and 10 kids) and we were situated right in front of the lake wheee the kids had a blast on the canoes and fished from the pier. We woke up to deer grazing in the field and turkeys later in the day. There were also some dairy cows from the ranch close by but they didn’t come back after the second night. This site has real bathrooms and showers with electricity to recharge electronics. Thanks to Chris for keeping the grounds clean and cows at bay! Highly recommend Hye Camp!

Weekend Trip to Camp Hye Sierra

Camp Hye Sierra is a classic summer camp setting, usually used for long kids’ camps. Our spot was by one of the lakes, with paddle boats, a boathouse with running water and flush toilets, and an arbor that came in handy during an unseasonal rainstorm. We were the only campers, so we had our choice of space. If it were busy, finding a flat tent spot could be harder. The area is remote, quiet, and private — you can almost hear echoes of past camp life. The only downside was a large number of wasps.

Tent camping lakeside was perfect. Location was great too. Very close to the General Grant entrance of Kings Canyon. Plenty of amenities available. Went out in a canoe multiple times. Kids fished off the dock and had some pretty good luck. We all enjoyed swims in the lake. Plenty of firewood at the communal fire pit. Flushing toilets and running water was nice. The bathroom did have a lot of dead bugs, but were great once cleaned. Trash cans emptied regularly. Chris was our on-property point of contact. He was super helpful and responsive.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Tiny House / Harry Potter Treehouse! It was clean, cozy, and full of magical touches that made the whole experience unforgettable. The location was peaceful and perfect for relaxing, and the attention to detail in the decor was incredible—like stepping into a storybook. My kids loved it and didn’t want to leave! Communication with the host was smooth, and everything was exactly as described (or better!). We had a wonderful time and would definitely come back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and fun getaway!

Our family enjoyed camping here for 3 nights and 4 days. The property is off the main highway on the way to Sequoia National Park, and although the road is a little windy and mostly a one-lane, it is paved. Cell service is spotty and mostly places nonexistent. We called before to notify the property manager and he gave us directions on how to get there. Upon arrival we had little help from the manager but took it upon ourselves to just figure it out. The photos on Hipcamp are a bit deceiving. The pavilion is right next to the lakeside camp area, the bathrooms and the basketball court, soccer field are walking distance. The pond is catch and release (the fish like worms!) so bring your rods. It’s pretty murky and I wouldn’t swim in it though. But he did say it’s tested monthly. Pros: hot water in bathrooms, water bottle filling station, wood provided for fire pit Cons: bullfrogs are LOUD at night and kept us awake (bring ear plugs), minimal guidance from property management Overall: we enjoyed our stay. It’s basically an Armenian Church Camp during the mid-summer months and they must rent out camp space the remaining weeks. The property manager is more like a groundskeeper but everything was easy to manage and figure out. Other notes: we saw glow worms by the fire pit! They must get fireflies later in the season. It seems like there is no designation between lakeside 1, 2 vista 1, 2. You just find a spot and camp there.
