We had a great spot right on the river and were able to float off down the Kern right from our campsite. The spots next to the water have no sewer hook-ups, just water and electricity, so be warned! They didn't tell us that when we booked it. They do have sewer hook-up sites, but they are in the least-desired part of the campground. It's small and hardly much room to bike ride, if you like to do that as a family, like we do. I was a little bored with not much to do, but it was a shady place and very quiet. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We camped here for 4 days on a site right on the Kern River. The park is well maintained, but the sites are all dirt and quite dusty. The close proximity to Kernville means that resupply for those forgotten items is simple. Caution for low overhanging branches and tree limbs. While they advertise 50A service, the truth of the matter is that only a few are. The balance are 30A, so be sure to ask when making your reservations. Same goes for the cable TV; only certain sites (I believe it's the same as the 50A one) have hook-ups. Be advised that this park is very intolerant of any noise, and the staff will evict violators without hesitation. My family enjoys this park very much and we'll definitely be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Campground is next to the Rivernook. It is a smaller CG. The hosts are awesome. Some sites have 50 amp & cable TV hookup. Tent campers are allowed to use the same spots as RVers. Only a few spots are large enough for 35 to 40 foot motorhomes or 5th wheel, be specific when you call. Good rules regarding playing of music & barking dogs. We took our dogs & there were no issues. We will definitely be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great state campground. We stayed right on the river. Almost everyone in the park was fishing. The site was level and right next to a sandy beach on the river. If you want a resort not the place to stay. I you like piece and quiet and nice scenery then it is the place to stay. We are going to make it our Thanksgiving campgrounds. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Wow! Nice setting! Creek view or river view you can't go wrong! Staff was very friendly. Would get a better rating but the showers and restrooms were a bit run down. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Three families spent New Years for the last two years. We stayed in sites away from the river due to the cold weather. Our sites did not include sewer, so at the end of a 6 day stay, we were at capacity on black water. The restrooms are fine, but no heat. The river is great, and lots of room between sites. We stayed at site 58-60. Deer and wildlife come through the site. Sites are dirt, but lots of room between campers. Nice small town of Kernville nearby. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
It was full of campers, the week we were there. We had a pull through site with full hook ups, including cable t.v.. The campground was quiet and the access to the Kern River was nothing short of awesome. Views were good, the fishing fair at best. The restrooms and showers were clean. The staff were not the most friendly, or helpful. With that said, we would still return again. We stayed for a week. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
This park is located right on the Kern River in Kernville, so it's attraction is the river setting not neccessarily the campground, and this is a campground, not an RV park. It has many riverfront sites, tent and RV as well. The riverfront sites only offer water and electric which was fine with us as we were only there for a long weekend. There are full hookup sites a little farther up from the river which do offer sewer and TV as well. There are many fulltime residents in this park, but they are located in another section of this 60 acre facility. The rest rooms were not extremely dirty though I would not consider them clean, and they were more similiar to a National Park style restroom/shower facility. $25 was for the water/elec sites. The full hook-up sites are $28. But, for the river setting, I would stay here again, just for that reason. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
