Updated: Mar 8, 2023


Wondering if you can rent a trailer and have it set up at Kern River's Edge Campground (KRE)? The answer is yes!


Camping is a great way to get outdoors and enjoy nature with friends and family. But roughing it doesn't always have to be, well, rough and many of you have been asking for us to install RV hook-ups. We now have 10 sites with Power & Water hook-ups! From picking the perfect campsite to timing the trailer rental that is ideal for you, here's what you need to know about RV sites @ Kern River's Edge Campground.


1. Reserve a Camp Site


First step is to contact a campground such as Kern River's Edge Campground Retreat (KRE) to check camp site availability on the dates you wish to camp. At KRE we make it easy to check, simply click on our Book Now button, select the type of camp site you prefer such as our Standard sites with Power & Water. Choose your camping dates. Choose how many nights and how many people in your group, including children. Choose your preferred camp site or one that is comparable and Add to Cart and then check out.



When you are selecting a campsite, make sure you choose a site that has plenty of space for the size Trailer you are renting and number of people you will have in your group.


We do allow tent(s) on your site, in addition to the RV, as long as you are not exceeding the allowed number of people allowed in each site.

Contact Trailer Rental company to see who has an RV available on the dates you wish to camp. Make sure to ask what size RV you will be renting. It needs to fit in to the camp site you are reserving. Be sure to mention that you have reservations @ KRE and be prepared to tell them which camp site you have reserved.

Care-for-It

Recreating responsibly includes packing trash bags to leave our wild spaces cleaner than you found them. There is a glass ban in the Sequoia National Forest, so remember to use plastic storage containers, ziploc bags, or bota bags for camping gear and kitchen supplies instead of glass. Practice Leave No Trace principles and pack out what you pack in. See more Kern River camping tips.
