Dinkey Creek

Wonderful forest setting with well spaced sites for a bit of quiet. Some offer terrific canyon views. There’s a small very convenient store just outside the entrance, a plus in this lightly populated corner of California, while Shaver Lake with its larger set of amenities is not terribly far west.

I’ll definitely be back.

There was supposed to be running water and flush toilets along with showers. None of the above was available and the water was shut off for the season. What a bait and switch. Very disappointed with the amenities at this campground.

This experience was not so great this time around. The water was turned off and all bathrooms were locked except the “vault”which are not the flushable ones. So with no working bathrooms and no running water for 4 days was a lil rough.

Dinkey Creek Campground was very nice, clean and relaxing. The bathrooms were always kept clean and the rangers were very friendly. We were not advised of the showers not working during booking the stay but we were there for only 2 nights so it wasn't too bad.

Good campsite that's away from the other campsites nearby. Only problem was the amount of wasps that came around whenever cooking/eating. This was during the last weekend of September so the days were still warm. A canopy with a netting would have helped a lot.

I had the worst experience ever, there was no showers and on the description it said the showers are working, we haven’t shower for almost three days supposedly it was out of order due to season, and an employee named Jason was so rude to my dad yelling at him and screaming and cursing at him when he could’ve learn some customer service by helping us instead of coming towards us aggressively my family full of kids had to see and hear this rude employee yelling at us. I do not recommend this campsite
There’s no service, no showers, rude employees and it’s expensive. I’ve camp on September 27-30,2024 and it was worst experience for me and my family. The worst thing was that employee Jason he’s rude I still can’t believe he yelled at my dad and curse at him and my dad didn’t do anything but complain about the showers. What kind of campsite is this, I’m going to a different site that has showers and good bathrooms I’m not coming back here again EVER, nor the other people I suggest to move to a different site.

great

Lots of large groups camping and no enforcement of quiet hours. It was a competition between two sites on opposites sides of the campground as to who could blast their music louder, all of which started after 11:00 pm. We forfeited our second night.

Had a great time at Dinkey Creek. Bathrooms cleaned regularly, quiet hours respected by other campers, no bears sighted. The proximity of the creek was a nice addition to cool off midday.

usually love donkey creek, but this time it was such a horrible experience. when we got there someone was in our campsite and had to ask them to move. Then our camp neighbors walked up to our camp site at 6am insisting we give them coffee because we kept them up all night??? we were all asleep by 10. Then on our last night a couple campsites were being super loud and screaming laughing, and the camp manager came down to yell at me and tell me people complained about saying we were keeping everyone up. When we didn’t, we had young children with us for 1 year olds to 5 year olds so we were all asleep by 9 and we told him what campsite was making all the noise and he was so rude and just being obnoxious, and was telling us he could cute us for that and told him to prove that it was us being loud and who complained because it was false and he couldn’t prove it was us. overall a terrible experience. on top of that the rangers were always passing by telling us we were going to get cited if we had an trash in the floor and we didn’t. DONT GO also there are so many wasps that are there literally probably about 100 wasps just around us and two of our family members got stung!!!!! so bad
