It was rainy drab and cold. Had a great tine. It was clean and as expected. No problems. Going back soon.

The only "RV" spot available at Hickory Creek was spot #37 for the three nights we were at Beaver Lake. This site is dangerously steep and shouldn't be be listed as a camping spot, RV or tent! It's impossible to level the RV, and once it is parked (we pulled into the spot instead of backing in) the distance to step from the RV down to the ground is too far. For the second night we moved to site #45 and thoroughly enjoyed it, but nothing except spot #37 was available so we moved to a private RV park.

Please permit me to mention something special that happened at Hickory Creek. I am disabled and the bookings for the 2 weekends that were available on recreation.gov literally opened my motorhome door onto a steep hill. This is very - very - dangerous for someone in my condition. I would have fallen dozens of times if I had stayed on those sites. The Ranger , whose name is Tim, coordinated with the host, whose name is Katie, and somehow the moment a cancellation occurred on a flat site , Katie jumped on it and switched me from the dangerous sites to flat. This happened two weekends in a row during m short stay. Weekends are very hard to select good camp sites because the parks are so crowded.

It's a beautiful park and I enjoyed my stay. The newer lady that is running it though is not very pleasant.

One shower house for so many campsites is disgusting. It was filthy. The Corps should be ashamed of itself. This was our fist and last time at Hickory Creek.

Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
