Rock Creek Lake (inyo National Forest, Ca)

Loved it here! Lake is walking distance and the bathrooms were really clean. Ranger/ Camp host on site and he seems very nice. The only thing is that you need to carry you gear to the site but it’s not fair from the parking spaces. I had site number 17 and it’s one of the closest to the parking. There’s level spaces blocked up for your tents. Some of the sites sit close together but it’s pretty spacious so your not camping with you neighbors. Would like to go back.

Lovely location and facilities! We camped at site 1, which unfortunately has zero shade during the day, so we just moved to a day use picnic table along the lake for the day. While camping here, DO NOT MISS the Rock Creek Lakes Resort— you can visit them for breakfast, lunch, groceries, or $5 showers, and they're just a quick walk across the main road. I've stayed at this campground before a few years back, and sadly had no idea about the resort and their fabulous pies!!! Don't miss them, they stop serving food at 3pm. Also the Gem Lakes trail and hiking up to Ruby Lake are some of my favorite eastern sierra trails, and I've hiked a lot of em!

When I booked the reservation on-line it gave me an option for Tent or RV. I chose the tent option. When I arrived at the site it was marked RV ONLY - there was no tent pad. I spoke to the Camp Host and he said there was nothing he could do so we had to go look for another camp site that would honor our reservation. Very disappointing as the Camp Host stated this was not the first time this had happened.

Rock Creek is a wonderful campground with the lake nearby and wonderful hiking at nearby Mosquito Flats.

Amazing facility and tent sites!

Very nice and clean campsite, my family had a wonderful time despite the worlds unfriendliest camp host. We passed that unfriendly man on his golf cart in the campground while in our truck because we thought he was stopping and he told me and my family “what the F***, As*****”!

Super unfortunate for my 2 year old to hear that from another adult and we paid for a reservation for that experience no less.

Won’t be coming back to this site as a result but it was a nice place

My kids and I had a great time!

Hands down one of the most amazing campsites we have been to thus far in our adventures.

The lake was beautiful and the trout were bitting! Had a little problem with my reservation. The campground host was out due to an emergency so we had to deal with Jim and Theresa(?). WOW! Very unhelpful and confrontational. I was able to remedy my accommodations with no help from them two. The bathrooms were very clean so I guess that is were they shine. Loved the lake! Kids had a great time on the kayaks.

When we booked this trip in April, the website said our selected site could accommodate a 30’ vehicle. We took our 26’ travel trailer and when we got there found out that was not the case. Luckily we had booked 3 adjacent sites so we made it work. It looks like the website has been updated since which is great because this campground is more suited for tent camping or much smaller RVs. That being said…this place is stunning. Gorgeous views, right on the lake and near a small stream. Perfect for kayak, fishing, swimming, paddle board. Lots of great hiking nearby as well. Sites are clean and well maintained. Flush toilet bathrooms on site. No showers on site but there are some across the road a few min away. One night a bear came through the site next to us. He got into a lot of stuff so use those bear lockers and don’t leave out trash! There is ZERO cell service out here so be prepared to log off and enjoy nature!
