Frandy Park Campground

It's great to camp in Kernville by the kern river. White water rafting and white water tubing right outside the gate. Store and bars and pizza close by. We weren't happy with no lights/music policy but it all worked out. All in all, great place to hang.

Great experience for our first time. Well we did show up on a Monday and stayed until Wednesday so we had the campground to ourselves 😁 showers were great and all the wildlife around us was entertaining 😊😀

We had a delightful and enjoyable experience during our one-night stay in our tent. The friendly staff's behavior upon arrival, the captivating nature, the cleanliness of the environment, the abundance of firewood beyond imagination, the opportunity to make a bonfire, the provision of a table and chairs next to the riverbed, and... In summary, everything necessary for a memorable camping experience was present for me, my spouse, and our cat in this lovely environment. We highly recommend it to you.

My anticipation for this place was sky-high. Glowing reviews, stunning images, and a pristine online appearance set my expectations soaring. Arriving promptly at 8:00 pm, the initial moments seemed promising despite the three-hour drive. However, the cracks began to show as I settled in for the night. Issues surfaced with the campground's operation, treating it more like a luxury resort with wristbands, car inspections, and an array of fees for basic amenities. Want to use the fire pit? Upgrade to a "premium site." Looking to fish? Opt for a riverfront spot. The real ordeal began at dawn when I ventured to the river for some fishing. Passing through what appeared to be an empty campsite, I was accosted by an individual claiming ownership, hurling profanities and threats. Even mentioning

LOVED IT!! We were in space 26. Our camping spot was about 20 ft from the river. Yes there is a city park on the other side of the river, but it is still nice. There's little man made shallow pools for kids to swim in on the side of the river. The river itself in this part of the river has a fast current for rafting, just bring swimming shoes because the rocks are sharp and slippery. Only one building of bathrooms in the entrance of the park and they are kept clean. They have porter potties throughout the campground. Campground office sells firewood and ice. The attendants of the campground are friendly and courteous. There's all sorts of businesses outside of the campground, even a grocery store. Overall I think the campground is located in a great spot.
