Comment

Sheep Creek Campground has 111 RV and tent camp sites.  Reservations are not available.  First-come, first-serve.  Open from May 21 - October 14.

Most parking pads are small and not well suited to larger RV's.  Sentinel Campground is better suited for the larger RV's.
 
The Kings Canyon area is generally 10 degrees warmer and also drier than the Sequoia area. 
 
The roads going down into Kings Canyon are winding, narrow, and steep.  Although it is possible, Campbase does not recommend taking large RV's into this canyon.  Please see the photos tab for a picture of the narrow canyon roads.
 
There are three gas stations in the National Park.  Kings Canyon Lodge, Hume Lake, and Stony Creek Village.  Diesel is available at the last two.  Campbase recommends filling your vehicles fuel tank before entering the National Park.
 
Dump stations are located at Potwisha, Lodgepole, Princess, and Dorst Creek campgrounds.  The closest to Sheep Creek Campground is at Princess Campground, approximately 15 miles away. 
 
Bear boxes are provided in every campground in the park.  All food must be stored in these boxes unless it's kept out of sight in an RV.  Food may not be left out at any time.  Additional bear rules and information can be found at the restrooms.  Do not feed the bears at any time.
 
Across the River from the campground is the Cedar Grove Lodge where you will find a laundry, market, and small restaurant.  Ice and wood are available there.
 
Local Recreation:
 
Fishing at the campground is extremely popular on the South Fork of the Kings River.
 
Bring your bike.  There are some nice bike paths that run between campgrounds and over to the village.  They are paved and great for the entire family.
 
The primary activity in this area is hiking.  Several trails start near the campground.  Check at the information center for trail details.
