Our family and friends visited Camp Fresno over the Labor Day weekend and stayed in our usual cabin #66. When we arrived we were greeted by Paul who made us feel welcome and greeted us with enthusiasm. Once we arrived to cabin #66 we could immediately tell Fresno City is putting a great effort in renovating this fantastic property. The new manager Larry who is from the ranks of Fresno City Parks is absolutely the right guy for the job along with the small staff there for Camp Fresno. I gave the property 4 stars because of all the effort that Larry and his crew have accomplished not to mention the volunteers kudos to all of them. This makes 11 years that we have visited Camp Fresno and are making plans to continue our annual visits to this wonderful piece of property. It is very rustic but that's what's great about this place. .

The Campsite has nice bathrooms, monitored and Maintained by the campsites rangers and has water spouts/sinks.

The is lots of trails and areas to go hiking as well as day use areas further up the river. In case you forget anything there is a lodge which has a well stocked market as well as snack shop to get some food. Showers and Laundry facilities are very nice for camping standards and tokens are available at the market.

We were lucky that our bear box was in the shade, to keep food cool while we were out. We stayed in campsite number 75. If I went again, I would try and be near the river or closer to the namesake Sheep Creek. The campground was only a short walk from the National Park Visitor's Center (Cedar Grove Location). The Visitor's Center had multiple interesting presentations throughout the weekend. (Memorial Weekend was the first weekend the campground was open). There was one daytime talk every day we were there and an evening presentation both Saturday and Sunday at 8:30pm (hours and days of these vary). Trevor, the ranger, was very helpful and his talks were insightful! We saw both "Written in Stone" (about mass extinctions) and a talk on animal defense mechanisms during the day. They were both great! The hiking near the site was impeccable. We drove to Road's End for the Mist Falls hike which was just shy of 10 miles round trip (with the incline mainly on the last 1.5 miles out). It was definitely worth the walk! The falls were beautiful. There was also plenty of hiking closer to the campsite. Roaring Falls and Zumalt Meadow were much easier hikes but still rewarding in the views of nature they provided. On the way out we visited Grant's Grove and some of the Sequoias. It is about 1 hour from the entrance to King's Canyon National Park to this campsite so I don't recommend using this campground for visiting the sequoias.

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!

We also had problems with people blaring music and being loud and obnoxious well into 1 am. We are hikers so we get an early start each morning and that late night ruckus really ruined the experience for us. Aside from that we didn't really have any issues. The bathrooms were nice and clean. They have flush toilets and sinks with running water which is uncommon in my experience. They also have trash cans and water spigots which was nice to not have to pack out our trash. We did the first-come, first-serve camping which to me trying to figure that out from just the website gave me a headache. Trying to figure what site was open when and which required reservation and which allowed walk-ups. Honestly, the NPS really needs to improve in this area. However, with an super early morning start to drive around and catch a Park Ranger to ask, we figured it out. We camped there the second day they were open (according to the website which may or may not be true) this season and were lucky to get a spot. I recommend checking the sites early in the morning around 8 or 9am. Even though check out is at noon, if you wait until 11am (which is what the ranger told us to do) most open spots will have already been taken. We nabbed our spot at 8:30am. Pretty much how it works is you find an empty spot without a yellow tag or with an expired tag. For example, the spot we took the yellow tag expired on 5/4 which means they have to leave by noon on that day. If they are all packed up and leave at 8am that spot is open to whoever gets there first. After we got a spot I walked up to the pay station filled out the yellow envelope, tore off the yellow stub, stuck our cash in it and submitted it to the locked payment box. It's 18$ a night for groups 4 or less. You fill out your yellow stub and then attach it to your campsite sign. This first come, first serve style only works up until a certain day when "peak season" begins and then most places require a reservation. Aside from the headache of figuring out how this all works and the obnoxiously loud and inconsiderate people I really enjoyed this site and would stay again. I hope this helps those of you trying to plan a trip! Have fun and enjoy!

Park rangers repeatedly drove at unsafe speeds through the campground full of young children…read more Rangers repeatedly did not address loud music played during quiet hours. One restroom for the campground area is ridiculous resulting in filthy bathrooms, long lines, and probably the use of "nature" as the bathroom. No showers was disappointing as this was not announced when we made the reservations. Campsite L is sloped with poor options for tent placement unless one wants to spend the night sliding or rolling down the hill. Site L is also in full sun with few shade options including the bear boxes which bake all day. Campsite M was lovely with plenty of tent spots and shade. Having water in each site is wonderful.

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!
