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.

The lake was right in front of my campsite . I’ve camped here before and even with fire and flood the tranquility remains. There are a lot of chipmunks so keep your food in the bear locker , I didn’t use my phone much but service was ok. The tree that used to be at this site has been removed so if you want shade bring a pop or umbrella. The tree cutters were up and Adam at 7 am but I suppose they were clearing dead wood for safety reasons. One of my favorite places to be! It gets a little chilly in late May early June still so make sure to bring your warm gear. My little pup loved his morning/evening walks. It can get a little breezy too. Bathrooms were clean and well lit. Bring your own tp in case there isn’t any in there. All in all enjoyable . The lake is cold but bring your life jackets swimwear and kayaks, you can leave it right in front of the campsite or at the water. And the fishing is great too don’t forget your license

Well kept campground right next to the lake. However, couple of things about campsite #5. It is right next to the bathroom. The light is constantly on throughout the night. I think it may be the only site without any trees, so it’s pretty exposed throughout the day. We still had a great time renting a boat for half a day at China Peak and hiking to Rancheria Falls.

Great location on a beautiful, quiet lake in the Sierra Mountains. Although the area was hit with a major fire several years ago, Lower Billy Creek was unaffected and is still a beautiful place to camp.

There is nothing like camping right at the edge of the lake! Easy access for swimming for the kids and launching our canoe. The camp host was very friendly and easy to talk to. The sites are well maintained and restrooms, water and dumpster are easily accessible. I prefer staying on the west end of the lake as it's farthest away from the more popular campgrounds and tends to be more peaceful. There have been many trees removed in the past few years so shade structures are a must if you are going to be at your campsite in the sunshine!

Nice and quiet campground with phenomenal water access. Unfortunately, it is still recouping from the Creek Fire limiting the shade that each campsite has currently. The bathrooms were super clean and there are several fresh water spigots throughout. We will definitely be back!
