Cristopher Creek Campground (CCC) was amazing! I have passed by this place 100 times but never stopped- My wife and I used this short trip to test the boon-docking capabilities of our RV trailer but found it to be so enjoyable! We were in site 35 and have a 20 foot trailer with bed pop-outs on front and back making is about a 30' end-to-end and it fit perfectly. Best-part was we were surrounded by the mountain and it felt like our own heaven.
I recently returned from a two week camping trip in the Eastern Sierras and, unfortunately, had to deal with a jerk of a camp host. When we arrived the CCC, Cheryl was quick to come and meet with us and was friendly as ever! Her trips around the campground (about twice a day) was perfect. She kept the place well-maintained and beautiful at all times! Such a breath of fresh air! IN every single way! Thank you! See you next time!

Amazing campground, plenty of room to set up. There is table, grill tops, fireplace and a bear safe. The host Sharon was extremely friendly and helpful! Life saver on the way out when our car wouldn’t start and she jumped us off! Much appreciated!!💕
We’ll definitely be back, campground was very well maintained. Bathrooms were very clean, the smell is obviously unavoidable.
Beautiful views and lots of wildlife to enjoy.

First time camping as a family and this was definitely an awesome experience, no body in your business just you and nature. The outhouse was clean just smelt awful 😂 nothing you can do about that. I was expecting more hiking options but you kinda just had to make your own path and hope for the best. My kids loved it (3 and 1 years old). Will definitely return with my extended family. Thank you everyone!

We've been camping at christopher creek for the past decade and it is always reliable for a relaxing time. I would recommend staying in the b loop as it's a little more spacious and backs to the creek. My son has thoroughly enjoyed exploring the creek from when he was 5 to now 16 . It is very clean and we'll kept. Only a 20 minute drive to woods canyon lake and 20 minutes from the nearest grocery store. Christopher creek is the best camp grounds to make long lasting memories.

This is a wonderful campsite that is pretty well maintained. The camp hosts are friendly and informative. This is a go to place for me and my 2nd time going this year. The sad part is the creek is dry and there's barely any water in it. The pictures of the creek in this post was from June. I'm hoping the creek will fill up again soon.
