About Deer Creek

Deer Creek Campground is located in California Sierra National Forest. The campground is tucked under dense fir and pines along the shore of Huntington Lake and offers scenic lake views, especially during the annual sailboat regatta. Boats can be moored near some of the camp sites. There are two loops to this campground: one is more heavily forested with more sites along the lake, and the other has more open and sunny sites with closer access to the resort community of Lakeshore. All sites have a view of Huntington Lake.

Number of accommodations: 27

Had a great time at Deer Creek Memorial Weekend!! We just might make this a family tradition every year. Carmen the camp host is so kind and helpful!! The only complaint we had as a family is people walking through our campsite!! People, please educate yourself on camping etiquette.
