About Limestone Campground
Overview
Limestone Campground sits in an area dotted with oak and gray pine along the Upper Kern River, a designated Wild and Scenic River, at an elevation of 3,500 feet.
Recreation
Whitewater rafting and kayaking on the Upper Kern River are popular activities.
To learn more about the Upper Kern River, including safety and permitting requirements and a listing of local outfitters, visit the Sequoia National Forest’s overview of the area.
Natural Features
The Sequoia National Forest, located at the southern end of the Sierra Nevada in central California, takes its name from the giant sequoia, the world's largest tree, which grows in more than 30 groves on the forest's lower slopes.
The forest comprises about 1.1 million acres, and elevations range from about 1,000 to 12,000 feet creating precipitous canyons and mountain streams with spectacular waterfalls such as Salmon Creek Falls and Grizzly Falls.
At various points along the river, gray pines, scrub oaks, grass and dry climate shrubs cling to steep canyon walls, while cottonwoods and willows line the water's edge.
Nearby Attractions
The campground provides a good base for day trips to the Sequoia National Park Trail of 100 Giants.
The Giant Sequoia Mercantile offers a wide variety of books, maps, gifts, local art, camping supplies and other merchandise.

FAQ
How do I get a reservation at Limestone Campground?

The current snapshot shows substantial availability: 474 of 480 tracked site-nights are open (98.8%), though availability can change. Campsite Sniper has also detected 79 site openings here in the last 90 days, so further dates may appear. Pick a site on the map to see its calendar, or set a free Campsite Sniper alert. You complete the reservation yourself on Recreation.gov.
Does Campsite Sniper book this campground for me?
No. Campsite Sniper sends alerts and direct Recreation.gov links. It never books, pays for, holds, hoards, or resells reservations.
How current is this availability data?
Campsite Sniper re-checks public Recreation.gov availability for this facility every hour and republishes whenever anything changes. This facility's data last changed at Nov 2, 2026 18:20 UTC; an older timestamp means nothing has changed since that time, not that checking stopped. Always confirm final availability on Recreation.gov when you book.
How often do new openings appear at Limestone Campground?
Campsite Sniper detected 79 site-date openings here over the last 90 days, none in the last 7. A free alert watches around the clock and pings you the moment one appears.
Can I get a multi-night stay at Limestone Campground?
18 three-night openings are showing, counting only runs where the SAME site is free for all three nights. The soonest starts Apr 2, 2027 at site 004. Confirm and book on Recreation.gov.
Which sites at Limestone Campground fit a 35-foot RV?
6 of the 15 sites that support RV analysis have a recorded maximum of 35 ft or more; the longest recorded is 40 ft.
Which month has the most availability at Limestone Campground?
April 2027, with 429 open site-nights in the current snapshot of 435.
How far ahead of a stay do openings appear at Limestone Campground?
Half of the openings Campsite Sniper detected appeared at least 7 days before the stay date; the middle 50% landed 5-9 days out. Campsite Sniper can monitor future changes for dates you select.
When is the next open date at Limestone Campground?
Campsite Sniper cannot answer that from the current snapshot. The availability data held for Limestone Campground begins Apr 2, 2027 — about 151 days after this snapshot was taken, so any earlier dates are outside what Campsite Sniper is tracking here rather than known to be unavailable. Check Recreation.gov for dates before Apr 2, 2027.
