Great place--very remote but spectacularly beautiful, wild, and unspoilt. There's a creek that runs through the campground. It's lovely to hear it babbling away at night. The host, Terry, was fantastic: friendly, knowledgeable, and present. (Her dog Bailey was also a star!) I'll definitely be back.

This was a gorgeous remote campsite near Sequoia Park! This is a pack in pack out campsite so come prepared! No general store for 35+ mins, no grocery for almost an hour.
( All winding roads). Our campsite had running water which was so peaceful, and the site was plenty large and flat. The last 200 yards you will be driving on gravel so be mindful.
Right now it’s a STRICT no fire rule, no campfire, no burning of any wood or coals.
We ended up buying a propane fire pit and large propane can from Walmart and it did the job.
Even without a wood campfire it was the best We will definitely be back!

The site was beautiful and secluded. Unfortunately when I called to confirm if we could use the campfire we were given the wrong information and only took firewood for the campfire pit. The camp host informed us upon arrival that campfires were prohibited at the moment but she was kind enough to allow us to use her butane stove. The restroom was clean and maintained. We will definitely be going back.

Hi there! The location is perfectly beautiful! Nearby are the beautiful mountains and the mountain small river. Night stars is amazing, stargazing is the most spectacular, my favorite part of this camping

Eshom was a gorgeous campsite - lots of tree cover but with a high canopy, so it feels very open even though there is a lot of shade. Site 06 was just downwind from the bathroom so there was some odor with how the wind was blowing when we were there. The bathroom was clean and plenty of potable water. We were fortunate enough to be the only ones at the campground on a Monday night, so were able to move to another site. Creek was flowing, which provided some nice background noise.
