What Guests Are Saying
Spring Creek offers beautiful campsites near the lake, ideal for kayaking and enjoying scenic views, with well-maintained facilities and clean restrooms. Many guests appreciated the helpful camp host, Chuck, who contributed to a positive camping experience. However, some reported issues with specific sites, unpleasant odors near bathrooms, and noise from gas leaf blowers, suggesting improvements in waste management could enhance the experience further.

Camp site was partway under construction with much of the area above it which made the dust hard to deal with so we never set up camp in that site. That site and a couple around it should have been closed tell construction is finished

Our site was nice and clean. The restrooms were very clean. I would have gave it five stars, except the campers next to us were smoking pot and partying until late into the night. We had younger kids and they had to smell the pot and listen to the cussing nonstop. I was surprised that the host didn't enforce the quite time. I would stay there again. Hopefully we will end with better neighbors.

SpringCreek was a welcome sight after months of quarantine. Beautiful as always, super friendly and accomodating camp host, restrooms had paper and the campsite was clean. I love our visits here but this year was even more special. Love this place!
