Friendly ranger and clean bathrooms. Major clean up was underway to clear driftwood and debris. Excellent birding!

I just needed a small getaway from the city to recharge in nature and this was the perfect little spot. I think the only bummer is that it is right next to the highway so there was the sound of cars occasionally. I also didn't know the lake was completely dried up at these sites so you have to drive down a bit to get to Kaweah Lake. However, it was a cute spot, there weren't many other campers (which I liked because I wanted to feel alone haha), and the camp host was very friendly and helpful. Three Rivers is super close so that's a fun place to visit and Visalia is really close, which is where some of my family lives. There was wood all over the place so you don't have to worry about buying firewood. The bathrooms are a bit of a walk and one of them was out of service so it was even more of a walk for people on the other side of the campground, but I enjoyed the walks personally. There is also no hot water as far as I'm aware, so cold showers! The stars at night were beautiful. Spot #30 was mine and I absolutely loved it. It had a tree on it and I really wanted that haha

Wonderful quiet spot- perfect jumping off point to see Sequoia. The wonderful views and ample driftwood made for wonderful campfires. Caution for bigger rigs- it's NOT very easy to get level- most sites NOT flat. Seemed easier for smaller rigs.

Have enjoyed staying here for many years, but so disappointed that the restrooms are not being kept up. One is totally closed down because of water damage from the lake rising last year. But in the other one it still does not have hot water for a long time. The restroom is equipped for showers but no hot water!!!!!

We enjoyed our stay at Horse Creek. The only C.O.E. we have stayed at that does not have electric at the sites. But that is understandable since the campground is under water once and awhile. Although the large amount of driftwood available makes for a free campfire. Restrooms are dated but served there purpose. Would definitely consider staying here if we are ever in the area again.

Beautiful place! Felt safe. The ranger let us use any cut down wood around us for the campfire. Will definitely visit again.
