I booked site 121 which is fairly large lot that comes with basics of bear box, picnic table, and parking lot. It also had additional or extra bear box if needed. This spot was right next to the bathroom, so that could be a good or bad thing. Plenty of trees for shade. The ranger who work there, was quite friendly and helpful! Tips + there is a small little area with water, near the entrance which is great for little kids. Plenty of trees and shade to hangout. + payphone located by the entrance. (No reception at all!) + maps and information on activities located at the front entrance. Overall, great camping experience!

Other than that the campgrounds was great. I love the fact the market is reasonably priced. They have a Cafe, showers, cleaner restrooms, and a laundry facility. The campsite was beautiful. Not too many bugs. Everywhere you looked it was beautiful. There's lots of campsites nearby but not too close. Our campsite was 202, right behind the large rock and pretty close to the river. It was nice hearing the rush of water throughout the day. The bathroom was close enough except for during the the night. Knowing that bears are in the area made it really scary going in the middle of the night. Wear a headlamp, it's much better than a flashlight. The shuttle will come inside the campgrounds and pick you up near the restrooms in the main parking lot. There are a few trails for hiking (which we didn't have time to do). I do recommend if traveling with another family to work out the food situation because there's only one bear box per site. One large cooler can fir or two smaller ones. One large and one small cooler will not fit in the box. ALL food, snack, even perfume, & body spry should be put into the bear box.

We used the fire pit the first night and we had a blast with our little daughter, looking up at the stars both nights. The toilets were close to our site and were pretty well maintained, no showers. We hopped around the Alabama hills at sunset and took a drive up to the Mt. Whitney portal (which was about 10 degrees cooler during the day) to walk around. We would love to come back here to camp!

This describes Sequoia High Sierra Camp in every way, although "comfortable bed" doesn't come close to what you'll find as fall asleep your first night in the mountains. Perched at 8,200 feet within Sequoia National Monument is Sequoia High Sierra Camp, an upscale experience that redefines "roughing it." Unparalleled vistas and luxury camping are available to those willing to hike a mile from the Marvin Pass trail head. At campsite, prepare to be pampered as hosts greet you with Southern-style sweet tea and warm oatmeal cookies. From the twin or king-sized beds with pillow-top mattresses dressed in triple-sheeted linens, down comforter and Pendleton wool blanket, to the gourmet fare, you'll wonder why someone didn't envision this type of camping sooner. Three meals a day include fresh fruits, homemade muffins, and all the breakfast basics; sack lunches for you to hit the trail; and mouth-watering dinners such as classically-prepared Caesar salad, muscovy duck breast, and homemade strawberry shortcake. In your 14' X 24' tent you can cozy up to the warm glow of a propane lantern as you sip a glass of wine and read a book in wrought-iron chairs with over-stuffed cushions. Comforts include a basket of plush towels and toiletries, bottled water, daily maid service, and bathroom building with flush toilets and hot showers. Maps and directions to all the best recreation are readily available. A warm fire, a glass of wine, and brilliant sunsets...this is camping! OMG why didn't they invent this sooner? Sequoia High Sierra Camp is open seasonally.

Yes, the food that was prepared each night for dinner was above average, and the 4 beer offerings and a dozen wines were nice and priced reasonably. But that is the only compliments I can pay this "luxury" camp. The dirty road in was an absolute nightmare and set he tone for the trip. The owners/proprietors were borderline rude and yes a bit grouchy. The bathrooms were far from what I expected from a "glamorous" camping experience. The breakfast offerings were fair, but I expected more from a place that's selling themselves as "luxury", how about some waffles, french toast, omelets...... The pack your own brown bag lunches were a huge disappointment! And I couldn't believe there weren't snacks (granola bars, fruit, power drinks, sodas, pretzels, etc.) offered around the clock. The hiking was also a bit of a let down too. And the hike offered with return transportation from Cedar Grove at $75 per person was ridiculous! Over all for what this place costs, we were very disappointed. I wouldn't recommend Sequoia High Sierra Camp to my worst enemy. Save yourself from a huge disappointment and go somewhere, anywhere else! As for the night we walked out on.... we headed into Fresno, stayed in the Riverpark area and had a great time!

If there's one…read morebit of practical hiking advice I can offer, it's to camp here for at least two days before hitting the trail if you live at a low elevation. I was not acclimated and it made my hike unexpectedly grueling. It's an absolutely beautiful hike, and I wish I was less focused on simply breathing! The entirety of the campground is surprisingly fancy as campgrounds go. Lots of manicured public spaces. But the store always seemed closed which probably had something to do with the government shutdown happening at the time. Directional signage within the campground (to specific site numbers and to the trailhead) is pretty awful and I wasted a decent amount of time trying to find my site. I got up pretty early to hit the trail (just as the sun rose), and had to use AllTrails to point me to the trailhead. In early Oct, it can get pretty cold up there so setting up camp at 4:30pm wasn't ideal. Try to get there earlier bc it cools down really fast. My specific site (26) was really private and very nice. It looked just like the pictures on Recreation dot gov. It sits beside a bubbling little stream, yet mosquitoes were never an issue. It was also the most level and tidiest tent pad I've ever had the pleasure of sleeping on. There was a major drop-off between the car pull-in and the campsite, so I had to be extra vigilant about not breaking my neck during the frequent back and forth loading and unloading.

We stayed over the weekend and it was absolutely freezing!!! Driving up, you could already see the mountains covered in snow and I knew right away we were in trouble! It got down to 21 degrees! I had double gloves, double layers, double everything and I still couldn't feel my fingers!!! Lol. I was so glad I brought my snow cleats because they helped a lot since the trails were covered in snow! For safety reasons, we decided to only hike up to Lake 2. The usual beautiful turquoise blue lakes were nowhere to be found and instead replaced with a half frozen lake. It was still a cool sight to see and I'm grateful I got to experience it at least once in my life because I swear, I will never stay here again in April! No way! Hahhaha. I definitely would not recommend camping here that time of year unless you have an RV or are really prepared for winter conditions. We were a big group which made the experience a lot more fun. I love this campground and there's a reason it's so hard to book. It's truly beautiful up there. If you're lucky enough to snag a reservation, definitely check it out.
