These RV camp grounds can be deceiving. This one is surviving on its location adjacent a National…read morePark. Otherwise it has nothing going for it. It's old, rundown, and unkept. There is no onsite management. RV campsites are jumbled together and it's hard to define the spaces. If you make a reservation on-line, there is no site selection on line. When you arrive to check in, you have to select your own site and then find it. I recommend you drive around and select the best one. Most are uneven and missing amenities: table, fire pit. Also, if you just arrive without a reservation, there appears to be a form to fill out with your credit card information. So essentially, you dont need a reservation. Just show up, fill out the form, give them a bogus credit card number, drop it on the box and walla, you can stay for free. Good Luck

No issues with anything. The only thing I could see someone having problems with is if they don't have enough sewer hose to reach to the back of the camper since the electric, water & sewer are all the back (at least for my spot - 50 and spots close to me). I had to use my extra hose which was totally fine but just keep in mind when choosing an available spot.

The Campsite has nice bathrooms, monitored and Maintained by the campsites rangers and has water spouts/sinks. Located next to the south fork of the Kings Canyon River, fishing is permitted and permit is required (check local and state regulations). 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 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.

Lake entirely surrounded by plants that have bees swarming so can't go in the lake at all. The catfish pond is 100% dried up. The place looks abandoned other than the main cabin and mess hall. Nothing for kids to do at all unless you leave and drive 45 minutes windy 2 lane narrow road to Sequoia or Kings River. The cabin is very spacious, clean, has 3 bathrooms, 4 bedrooms (1 is a very large community room with a lot of bunks) and it is a super quite place to stay but nothing for kids to do at all! The bunk beds are hard as a rock might as well been sleeping on the floor. The 3 double beds were comfortable and provided linens for those beds only. We went there to fish and swim in the lake but we could not. The extra daily drive to the park was additional gas/milage/$ and 45 min away. We should've stayed at Hume Lake in Sequoia or Kings Canyon, everything you need for the kids, stores, entertainment, and groceries is right there. This place was a waste of time and money. On the other hand if you wanted to stay indoors with air conditioning and just read or watch movies then it's perfectly equipped for that.

That being said, I was pretty worried about camping out at Kirch Flat for a rafting trip down the King's river. I was told that it's as close as you can get to being down &dirty with nature. There's no running water or electricity. Oh and did I mention that I was afraid of bugs? yea... But the site did have some amenities: - Kings river (main water source) - Two outhouses with occasional toilet paper. - 17 campsites - Fire-pits - A couple picnic benches - Oak and pine trees for shade - Great view of the bazillion stars &galaxies at night Surprisely, camping at Kirch Flat was actually really fun! It might have been the company I was with, but there weren't that many bugs (I don't have one bug bite), there were candles in the outhouses to burn off the smell &brighten them at night, & there was a park ranger always driving around so I felt pretty safe. Plus the King's river is gorgeous and perfect for some good ol' fashion rapids. The campground was completely full when I went this past weekend. &I heard that people book them way in advance... so plan ahead!
