THE IDEAL KERN RIVER EXPERIENCE We love Camp Kernville! We decided to rent one of their RV's and were so pleased that we did. The rig was clean and spacious...the mattresses were comfortable, and the kitchen was well-stocked. The staff filled out freshwater tanks daily and were so friendly and helpful. Everyone went above-and-beyond to make sure we were having a nice stay. The location is perfect...both to the river itself and a 5 minute walk to the historic downtown to get coffee or lunch/dinner. Its the perfect blend of feeling you're embedded in nature but having the convenience of being within reach to some conveniences. I can't recommend Camp Kernville enough! We will for sure be back. -Tami P June 2023

Stayed one more night because the camp and kernville are such lovely places. The camp is right next to the river. Staff is exceptionally friendly. Bathrooms are clean. Wifi/laundry/hot showers available. We would definitely come back! -SpaceMaX April 2023

What a great spot to camp, swim, trailer rentals, storage... They have the cleanest restrooms of any campground and the best beach/swim area on the river. The staff treats you like family and we've camped here dozens of times and will continue to. It's super convenient if you like to stroll to town or the park.

Beyond exceeded my expectations! Very clean, friendly, cozy , fun and right now during the warmer season they are showing free "movies in the park" while camping! So much fun for kids! And their "beach" on the river is the best for miles. Its calm , sandy, barley any rocks, its nice and deep out further across the river. Perfect for all ages! Sean Kelsey September 2022

This was our very first time at Camp Kernville. We stayed for 5 nights June 8th -12, 2023 We did not know what to expect after the floods & we were a little worried to be honest! But we were pleasantly surprised & the campground was very very clean & the entire staff were so pleasant & very helpful with any of our needs or questions! We stayed in one of the River front full hookup sites other than water & it was gorgeous! The sound of the river day & night was amazing !! My husband & I are 67 & we went on our first white water rafting trip & it was Awesome !! I highly recommend to anyone & not to worry about the water being to rough we felt so safe & comfortable on the water the entire 1/2 day trip. There is a water issue at the campground due to the floods! But we were well informed about it way before our trip so we were ok with having to fill our own water tanks when needed. It was never an issue the hoses provided were long enough & were always available. Not an issue at all !! I commend the park for all they are doing to accommodate guests !! We definitely will be back. -Armida S June 2023
