We have stayed at Rivernook in the past which is a great RV site also. We decided to try Camp Kernville this year and we were glad we did. The beach was great and the water is much more common in that area so the kids were able to jump into the water and really enjoy the river. The staff was really friendly and the sites, bathrooms, and entire property was well maintained. Definitely going to be our spot from now on. read more

Best of the best in Kernville! Fantastic resort! The staff and park itself were amazing. I can't wait to go back.

Great clean campground. Close to all the cool things Kernville has to offer and close to lots of outdoor activities. Mule deer like to wonder the park at dawn and dusk. If you want a better chance of seeing wildlife make sure to book the sites that back up to the private property. Winter is a great time to visit as the weather is fantastic and its a lot less busy. If we come back this way we will definiteky be staying ar Camp Kernville again. ​ read more

We have been going to Camp Kernville for 2 years now to ring in the New Year. From booking to registration to checking in has been so easy. The office staff is always so accommodating. You will always find the staff out making sure the grounds are impeccable. This campground is in walking distance to literally everything. The Kern River behind it is just an added plus. We look forward to booking during the summer. read more

I have been going here for a decade never had rude service. Jenifer is an amazing person always is positive about everything. Far drive but always worth it. Bathrooms are always clean. People are nice and they won't steal your stuff I left my phone in the women's bathroom for a day on accident and was still there perfectly. They provide you with a stand for like a griddle or a lil grill and a picnic table and a camp fireplace thing. They do lil things like karaoke contests and stuff like that. read more

This was our 3rd year visit to this camp ground. We found the camp site to be kept very clean and quiet. This was an enjoyable experience As always. The campground has a great location and is walking distance from the town. There is a small beach front by the river. The market and gas station is a hop, skip and a jump by vehicle. Many antique stores and places to eat and have coffee or ice cream. We will be returning next year. Highly recommended! read more

Great getaway camp location. We had the camp to ourselves after Labor Day rush. The beach was close by to swim or fish. We caught a catfish and rainbow trout. Staff were friendly and kept the facility clean. Local restaurants around within walking distance and I enjoyed white water rafting. Definitely recommend and I will come back for white water rafting again! read more

Great campground! They are doing a lot of good things. Karaoke could be a little better organized and communicated as you book or check in. The performances were awesome. But overall Camp Kern close to town and lots of river runs, very clean campus and very nice hospitality. We will be back in 2026!! read more

Great campground. Well kept, spacious and nothing but respectful campers. The restrooms are clean and I love a spot by the river!

Been coming to Camp Kernville for 10 years now and this was the most friendliest staff we have encountered. Kuddos to Nikki.....she was amazing and helpful. She went above and beyond and made our stay fantastic for the things she was able to help us with. She even helped me jump start my car battery that was dead!! The grounds crew, the office staff, the owner...thanks for making our stay one of the best ever and YES...we were there during the fires but we weren't affected by the air quality at all. Our dates of travel were July 29-Aug 2. BTW....the fishing was also the best we have ever had. We caught lots of trout, lots of crawfish, lots of huge carp, and a catfish. Laura Maxwell read more

Amazing service and area...that's where it goes downhill. We rented an RV for our trip along with several other family members. The RV was a complete disappointment! Run down, sandy, blinds tore up and mattress was terrible! I have bruises on my hips from trying to sleep on boards. False advertising as well! Our RV had NO TV and kit he items were a joke! One extremely small frying pan and miscellaneous other strange items. Water pump was hit and miss, shower did not work at times. Again, love the venue, but you must up your game with RV rentals. read more
