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.

It's our very very favorite place to Camp we love Spring Creek and after buying a brand new 5th wheel last year that was the first place we took it we found that campsite 26 is the best for our needs we hope to be spending more time there this summer in 2020

We have a family of four and a small trailer. We always make time to stay at Spring Creek every spring, summer and into autumn. We live it there and the kids love it there. We did have a minor issue with the camp host during our last stay but she was replaced during our stay and we never had to say a word. I recommend Spring Creek very highly.

We have been going to Spring Creek for the last three years. We have always staid at the same campsite each year and will be making reservations this summer at Spring Creek hopefully at the same campsite again.
We enjoy Frenchman Lake very much and plan on going back again.
