It was a beautiful place to camp with beautiful morning views! Our camp site was adjacent to the bathrooms which was great. The staff was very friendly and helpful. There is a small market which we used to purchase ice. There isn't a lot of hiking in the actual camp area, if you are avid hikers, which we are. We had to travel a bit, but that was ok. Overall a great experience and we will be back.

What an incredible experience! Campsites were large and spacious. The whole Dinkey Creek area is super fun with so much to see and do! Another bonus is that the Dinkey Creek Inn is right there so you can grab stuff from the store or use the shower, if you need to. The bathrooms were clean, BUT after a couple days there, they stopped working so that really sucked.

I Love Dinkey Creek! The water level was concerning, but our stay was wonderful.
Thank you.

LOVED this campsite. Seriously had a blast. Our campsite was the perfect size and had a good amount of shade throughout the day (And it was one of the campsites with the least trees). The creek was beautiful and so fun to wade in all day long. The Honeymoon pools were beautiful and refreshing. Only negatives about our trip were several bathrooms becoming Out of Order over our weekend so we had some inconvenient treks to further away bathrooms. And loud, rowdy campers in the middle of the night. But other than those small inconveniences, we truly loved our experience and are returning as soon as we can.
