At first glance the campground is confusing but after a day I had our spot figured out and I appreciate that everyone isn't lined up like a parking lot. Everyone I have dealt with here has been friendly, even the ground crew took a minute to say hello to my little dogs when we were in a walk. While in town I checked out the other places to stay just to compare, and I am 100% happy with our choice. Just a caveat for anyone traveling to Kernville in the summer, they have energy black outs due to high winds and fire risk. We had almost an entire day without electricity but our spot was shady and the dogs stayed cool inside.

This place has high speed internet that kept my kiddos entertained after quiet time. The place is clean and staff is very welcoming.

As a minority family, we had a very uncomfortable and upsetting experience at this campsite. We…read morewere singled out and required to pay for wristbands for every camper in our group, while we clearly observed multiple white campers staying without wristbands or being asked for the same payment. When we respectfully questioned the inconsistency, staff refused to provide a clear or lawful explanation and completely disregarded our concerns. There was definitely racism in the way we were treated, and it was obvious we were being treated differently because of our race. No one should feel targeted or discriminated against while trying to enjoy time with their family. Based on our experience, I strongly advise minority families and groups to avoid booking this campsite.

We have been coming to Frandy for 7 years and we absolutely love it ! Great location on the river…read moreespecially if you have children the water is calmer (aside from this year), bathrooms are decent compared to other campsites nice showers, staff is amazing we love the owner one of the main reasons we keep returning, Saturday movie night is a bonus my kiddos love it ! I would highly recommend staying at Frandy if your visiting Kern perfect walking distance to everything ! I commend the staff here especially after the floods they worked their butts off to get the camp back to normal with what they could without raising prices! Our site books out a year so we were really looking forward to our trip and unfortunately our site was ruined it's now apart of the river and the owner made sure to get us in an amazing spot to accommodate. Thank you and can't wait to come back next year!

The grounds are very much in need of some TLC. The sites are spacious and our group was placed together - which made spending time together easy...and fun. They are on top of the maintenance and the bathrooms/showers are quite impressive. My hopes - before returning next year (and writing an updated, very positive review) - is that the owners invest a bit of money in landscaping. Even if it is just tilling the sites. Get rid of the coarse weeds and level it off. So much potential. We will be back!

Oh how I completely love the Kern River!! I have been going for 24 years. It has never been as…read morebeautiful and full as it is now. One of my dearest friends is a seasoned river rafter. When we go river rafting, we mainly stay @ Headquarters or Sandy Flat Campground. This past weekend, we stayed at Sandy Flat. It was amazing. It is right off the river. The river was full and had power. I will add official stats by this weekend. My favorite group of runs is called The Jungle. (I will fact check this). I think that a great run was called Dilly. It is a class 4!! OMGoodness, it was wild & fun. Once more rafters arrived we went on another run. I will get the official names. One is named ... something Deli. Anyways, EPIC FUN. I forgot my wetsuit. I just went on June 3rd. The water was C O L D. Our guide, Doug, told us NOT to bring our phones. I wish I would have remembered my Go - Pro. We were lucky that the 178 reopened for the drive home. It was 93 degrees. I was mesmerized by the river. I couldn't stop watching it on the drive home.

The Kern River is beautiful…read more This review is based on a first timers camping visit. Coming up here from San Diego we didn't really know what to expect other than we might have an opportunity to tube down the river. So everyone in our group brought river tubes. That was our first miscalculation. Aperently tubing depends on the season, recent weather conditions, and various natural events that really narrow the scope of when you can tube safety. Also consider how you plan to get back up to your campsite after you tube down the river a few miles.. Ideally you rent tubes from a company that also shuttles you back up the river. If you don't want to rent tubs someone in your group has to pick you up and drive you back, which is a pain. There is no cell service and no uber... The Kern River is best suited for kayaking and rafting. There are many companies in kernville that offer those services. Camping. If you're looking to camp along the river during the summer you need to think about booking in January. During our stay mid-June, the entire river was booked solid.. We stayed at Sandy Flats campgroup which had a small beach area by the river. Litter bugs. One of the most discouraging things to see along the river was the amount of trash that people leave behind. The number one item? Used diapers.. If you can manage to visit midweek, and be prepared to use a kayak/rafting company you will have an epic time. Note - Sequoia National Park is about an hours drive away. Makes for a great day trip.
