Campground Overview

About Holey Meadow Campground

What sets Holey Meadow Campground apart is its tranquil seclusion at 6,400 feet amidst the Giant Sequoia National Monument, offering campers an intimate connection to towering groves of ancient sequoias, invigorating mountain air, and a serene forested environment. Perfect for those seeking a rustic camping experience, this tent-only campground features 10 primitive sites equipped with picnic tables, fire rings, and access to vault toilets, but lacks potable water—campers must bring their own supply. The narrow, paved access road restricts RVs or trailers over 16 feet, contributing to the quiet and less trafficked atmosphere.

Located approximately 60 miles southeast of Porterville, California, and a short drive from the iconic Trail of a Hundred Giants, this campground provides excellent opportunities for hiking, wildlife observation, and exploring nearby sequoia groves like Redwood and Long Meadow. Its remote setting and proximity to natural marvels make it ideal for weekend getaways or extended stays focused on solitude, nature immersion, and discovery of the Sequoia National Forest’s rugged beauty.
