Big Coon Creek offers a clean and beautiful camping experience with spacious sites, great views, and friendly park staff. Visitors enjoyed fishing, swimming, and the well-maintained facilities, including clean bathrooms and a quiet atmosphere at night. Some minor concerns were noted, such as site numbering and maintenance of certain amenities, but overall, guests had a wonderful time and plan to return.

The hosts were very helpful with finding us a place to stay for the night as our week’s reservation at Cossatot Reefs had been messed up due to misinformation on the website about the length of site 18 which says will accommodate a 51 ft camper. Ours is 35 ft and wouldn’t come close to fitting much less backing in. Hosts at both campgrounds were great!

People are nice, flies are bad and a lot of trash on the ground.

As always a great camping experience.
Weather was raining my whole trip but didn't keep us from having a great time. Nice campsite and such a beautiful lake.

Always a great camping experience.
With Covid I understand the station being closed but sometime you need to talk to someone about your site. Very happy experience.
