What Guests Are Saying

Lower Billy Creek offers a serene camping experience with clean facilities, beautiful lake views, and helpful camp hosts. The campground is well-maintained, with easy access to fishing, canoeing, and hiking activities, making it ideal for families and outdoor enthusiasts. However, some sites lack shade due to tree removal, so bringing canopies is recommended for hot days.

Beautiful view! Campsite was clean, but a little too close to neighboring site.

My son, daughter and their families stayed in Lower Billy while my wife and I stayed in Upper Billy...away from the chaos. They enjoyed their stay and found the site perfect for their large group. It had a large area that would accommodate several tents. The only downside was that the footpath that travels along side the lake, follows a route directly next to the main camp area. Oh well...it's camping. My daughter said she'd stay there again if it became available next year.

Always have a great time at Huntington Lake. This is my first camping experience at Billy Creek, I have usually camped on the other end of the lake. Wow, I was impressed, our site was within great view of the lake and a short walk to the shore. It was very quiet, felt like we were at a private part of the lake. I will return

The campsite was clean. Restrooms well taken care of. There are a lot of people right there in those eight or so campgrounds BUT you’re right next to the water. A lot of other campers were fishing steps away from their campsite. A few launched their kayaks feet from their tents. So if that’s your thing, this is a really cool campground. Don’t forget to check in though right across the street from the market before heading to the campground.

Campsite was close to lake, but very sunny. I wish I brought a shade canopy. Recreation.gov said the site permitted 4 vehicles, however, when checking in I only got two parking passes. There is an extra $10 per day charge if you want to park more than two vehicles at the site. You can park nearby on the road for free. Bathrooms were nearby and well maintained.

The camphost was very friendly and accomodating. We were camped in site #5 next to the lake. Restrooms were cleaned daily and it was a beautiful site with an excellent bbq pit. However, we noticed that the fire pit in #10 could use some repair. Unfortunately our host was transferred to another campground several days after our arrival in May ;-(

Family camping trip during early May. Be ready for freezing night temperatures, you will want the fire on during the entire day and night. Good service for Verizon customers. There’s a local saloon/restaurant with limited vegetarian options. There’s an adjacent market open now. Overall beautiful views and not crowded at all during this time.

This is a very small campground, and unfortunately, they cut down a lot of trees so the campsites are very exposed. Bring your own shade!
