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

The campground was clean & the bathrooms were always fresh and stocked.
Site 13 was great because it was right on the water however there was a huge power pole and lead lines between us and the water (I just edited them out of the pictures😂)
Nice amount of space between us and other campers. Everyone was super respectful and had good camping knowledge till the last night when a couple moved in who I guess thought that everyone wanted to listen to rap music as the sun set over the lake.

Most convenient access to the lake; some sites have little shade and can get hot.
