The gentleman who takes care of the upkeep of Upper Billy does an amazing job. Arriving there, the campsite was clean and raked like it was a zen garden. Also the restrooms were spotless. That man takes great pride in his work and it shows!

Really nice, clean and nice spot for camping. The approach roads are a bit narrow and surrounding areas seem to be effected by the fires but the view of the lake and quite time in nature is worth the time would definitely recommend!

My family and I just returned from a camping trip to this great campground. There are about 10 available sites for reservations and they are SUPER CLEAN. The campground has plenty of clean bathrooms, overflow parking, and friendly staff.

There are bearboxes, fire pits with grills, and nicely raked pads for tents. The ambiance is peaceful, fresh, and inviting.

These sites are within walking distance to Huntington Lake where a ride variety of activities await. We spent our days on the lake and even went to the little island in the lake.

Lower Billy Creek Campground is an absolute gem! Beautiful scenery, peaceful atmosphere, and a great spot to unplug and enjoy the outdoors. The campground is well-kept, spacious, and surrounded by incredible trees and mountain views that make you feel like you’re truly away from it all.

Whether you’re camping with family, fishing, hiking, or just sitting by the fire under the stars, this place delivers. It’s quiet, relaxing, and has that classic mountain campground feel that’s hard to beat.

If you’re looking for a great camping spot in the Huntington Lake area, Lower Billy Creek is definitely worth the trip. We’ll absolutely be back!

Obviously a really nice location; however, that’s where the experience ends. The camp spots are REALLY close together! Our fire pit was within 15-20’ of two other fire pits, so at night you can seriously hear everyone else’s convos. Then of course multiple dogs barking excessively and no camp host driving around to enforce the noise rules. I tried to call the number to report them and it went right to voicemail on a Saturday at 2pm with no follow up. And seems everyone has generators now and like to run them for multiple hours throughout the day. I get it, people want to charge their batteries or cook dinner, but these camp grounds need to outright ban generators or create rules (like all other camp grounds), they can only be run for a certain period of time and only certain times a day. My fav time was when the people next to us were at their camp fire at 8pm (right next to everyone else) then decided to go inside their camper and watch a movie, starting their loud external gen and letting it run for a couple hours…with zero consideration for anyone else’s peace and quiet! So between the generators and people’s stupid dogs barking…not peaceful!

Great park. Flush toilets and sinks. The tent footprint is a little small but there's space between neighbors.
