Easy access to General’s Hwy for Sequoia National Park access The Sequoia & Kings Canyon area has a long history of being visited. Even in the pioneer days, before the road, people had heard tales of the majestic canyon, wild rivers and of the groves of gigantic trees, that many thought to be a hoax. Folks would make the difficult trip up into the mountain to see for themselves. This site, in the early 1900’s was a farmstead providing fresh fruits and vegetables to the areas loggers, ranchers, hotels and backcountry explorers. During the construction of the new highway In the 1920’s the site was used as a labor camp. During the highway construction days a lodge and gas station was built and was known as “Barton Flat”. In the 1950’s the property was sold and became the “Kings Canyon Lodge”. In 2015 the historic lodge and some of the other cabins were destroyed in the “Rough” fire, by a miracle the original 1928 visible gas pumps survived the fire and are still being used to this day. We are hopeful to eventually rebuild a lodge to serve the many visitors.

Site 6 - Rv Space Camp site

This camp was very quiet and peaceful. A little difficult to navigate at night but we figured it out. Definitely recommend!

Peaceful getaway

The campsite was a very peaceful getaway, only 30 minutes from Mist Falls, had nice amenities. The land was mostly open and free and only one other person on our land. There was no host on site when checking in but we had everything we needed. We came slightly before dark and we had an easy time finding our campsite. There's a flushable toilet towards the front by the Ice Cream Shack. The gas and snack shack were not open until Sat Morning but we didn't really need it anyways. Another plus was that because it was 30 mins away from the Kings Canyon Park, that bear would never appear towards our location. You don't even need a bear food locker here.

Pretty good experience! Bathrooms were alright, water faucet was leaking however. The door was not closeable so lots of bugs in the bathroom. No one was present on site including guests which made it a little interesting. Seems like a cute place when it is busier but none of the camp shops were open and there was a broken building next to it. Love the friendly atmosphere overall!

Camping with the Kings

Already planning my trip back for the end of September and bringing my friends. My husband and I enjoyed this very private camping experience, far away from the hustle and bustle. If you are planning on coming here plan on having everything you need since this is very far away from any store. Camp host provides gas, ice cream, ice and water. Bring yellow jacket traps.
