The sites are split into several units along Big Meadows Road, not one tight loop, so check your assigned unit and site number before leaving the main road. Some campers say the spread-out layout can be confusing. Sites have a picnic table, metal fire ring and food-storage box, with vault toilets; they are nonelectric. There is no potable water, so bring what you'll need. Mosquitoes come up repeatedly in reports, especially near the creek and toward evening, so repellent is useful. A California campfire permit is required for campfires, barbecues and camp stoves; check current fire restrictions before lighting one.
