Gold Ledge Campground

I loved that we had the option of chilling at the water by our site or going to the swimming hole. The water was so chill this year it was an easy innertube ride down the river into the swimming hole. (But most summers I do not recommend going down the river without a life vest.)I jumped off the rock! That was fun! But I highly recommend plugging your nose. I got all waterlogged which made the experience less fun. Campsites are close in proximity but not stacked on top of eachother. The walk-in sites go over seriously rocky terrain making a simple wagon difficult to pull!! They are also very far from the bathrooms.. The plus side of the walk-in sites is privacy from the main road. Especially if you're bad like me and my friends and are noisy late into the night and building small fires hop

Terrible experience, I understand this is a cheap campground but it was really ghetto. Bathrooms were absolutely disgusting and the camp host didn’t do anything to clean them. Camp host is a 20 year old kid who went on joyrides on his golf cart. Theres a noise restriction that starts at 10pm and he didn’t enforce any of that, meanwhile our neighbors were blasting music till 4 am. He didn’t even check to see if we paid for out spot and we didn’t even need to check in. He also didn’t clean the bathrooms whatsoever, he has a brand new broom on his golf cart and that didn’t get used at all. His girlfriend also took the golf cart on joyrides around the campground loop with the toddler they have pretty fast. He did go into the bathrooms but didn’t clean them. Pretty bad experience and I w

Terrible spot... We couldn't even sit at the picnic table. I spoke with the groundskeeper and showed him the pics and he said he wasn't authorized to fix anything without approval. He also said that he knows things need to be repaired at the campground but can't do anything until the say-so is yes... I don't blame this guy, it's not his fault... The place is outright disappointing... Better off at Headquarters...

Closed currently until further notice but there's plenty of free camping up and down Kern River. 😎#RollingwiththeShasta @RollingwiththeShasta on Instagram

River access is beautiful, but the camp host is horrible. He hardly did his job cleaning the restrooms but yet constantly drives around looking for something to say and women to talk to. I just hope all the money he was charging for early access was not getting pocketed. The old host, who was way better, never charged for getting there an hour early.
