Concise planning notes based on the public Recreation.gov campground information.
Most campsites are non-electric, but 25 sites have electric hookups, and five of those sites have water hookups. There is one site that meets accessibility standards and is available as first come, first served. Day-use visitors have access to a boat ramp and vault toilets. All campers have access to flush toilets. Group campground reservations include the use of a horseshoe pit and volleyball court.
Pine Flat Lake is situated where oak and pine meet in the foothills of the central Sierra Nevada Mountains. It's in Kings Canyon at the western edge of the Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. At full capacity, the lake holds a million acre-feet of water, which is fed by the Kings Canyon watershed.
Boating, jet skiing and fishing are some of the most popular activities at the lake. Anglers can find small and large-mouthed bass, spotted bass and rainbow trout. Families enjoy strolling on the Blue Oak Trail, a quarter-mile interpretive trail that's accessible from the campground.
From the campground, head upstream on Kings River to find superb whitewater rafting in spring and early summer. Scenic drives through Sierra National Forest and Kings Canyon National Park never cease to impress visitors.
Site markers come from Recreation.gov campsite coordinates.
