The bathrooms at this campsite are horrible. They were moldy, and the men in our party said the men’s room had cockroaches in it. This campsite offers a more natured feel than the others on this lake. It’s a beautiful place, but the amenities are lacking.

Camp sites are great. There is no cell service. There is no camp host or guard shack workers. It would be better if they still had the guard shack open.

We booked sites 3,4, and 5 for 4 nights as we had 5 families that were going to be camping. We had a total of 2 campers and 2 large tents. When we arrived we found that the reservation map is not correct as far as where these spots are located. There is no spot 2 and spots 3 and 4 are to the right of the playground and spot 5 is behind the playground and completely useless. It is a pad and table with a revine that drops off right behind it. The only the that entire spot was good for was to park one small vehicle. We cancelled spot 5 and was able to get only half our money back. Other than that, I love this place. The staff is awesome and takes good care of the park and visitors.

Campsite 29 was wonderful! It was very spacious, close to the water, and close to the bathrooms. We will definitely be booking this site again in the future.

The camp was clean and area was quiet the 5 days we spent there. The Sheriff's Department made routine rounds checking on everyone. The Ranger that visited us confirming our reservation was nice and courteous. Trash was picked up every morning. The women's bathroom was clean and kept stocked up. My fiance' had no complaints at all. The drinking
water is good in our opinion. No problem with the electricity. The only problem was a raccoon lol. So be sure and secure all your food in your vehicle or trailer or whatever you have. Those rascals are smart and will get into tubs. Tie up the trashcan lid also if you can. Water was way down so really didn't bank fish. All in all, we had a very good time. We love Parker Creek!

The park overall was well laid out and campsites spacious with plenty of space and no over crowding. The only drawback was absolutely no cell service.

Beautiful and clean camp site. We were only people at camp and if we needed to run to store did not feel like we could leave trailer unattended.

Nice quiet campground. A good place to get away from it all because there is no cell phone coverage or tv coverage in the park! We enjoyed sitting around the campfire and just relaxing!
