What Guests Are Saying

Dinkey Creek offers a beautiful natural setting with excellent hiking opportunities and friendly camp hosts who provide helpful service. The campground is well-maintained, and many visitors appreciate the spacious campsites and clean facilities. However, issues such as the lack of functioning flush toilets and potable water have caused some inconveniences, alongside noise from generators and nearby campers. Overall, many families enjoy returning to this campground for its charm and the memorable experiences it provides.

Pros: very spacious, very clean and spacious bathroom with flushing toilets, 5 min walk to the creek (some parts are steep), friendly hosts
Cons: lots of “meat” bees. I would suggest placing a screen canopy wherever you cook or eat. No phone service with tmobile

Very nice location. Bathrooms are clean. We made it in late so it was difficult finding our spot other than that it felt good to connect with nature. Honeymoon pool was a nice little area to fish and swim. Will be back again :)
