What Guests Are Saying
Horse Creek Campground offers stunning views and a serene atmosphere, making it a delightful choice for families and nature enthusiasts. While some amenities, particularly restrooms and showers, were closed or in poor condition, many visitors appreciated the cleanliness of the portable toilets and the overall beauty of the site. The campground's proximity to Sequoia National Park and friendly rangers contributed to a positive experience for most campers, despite minor maintenance issues.

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!!!!!

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.

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

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

Sure would be nice if I could just drive to the camp, pay and stay. Some of my friends are old and would rather call a person to reserve a camp

The hike to the bathrooms was the longest I have had at any campground because the bathrooms near us were closed. The only bathrooms open right now are next to campsite 12. Otherwise it was good and had beautiful views. Somewhat difficult to find flat ground to put tents up on though. We tried fishing, but didn't catch any.

Big open spaces! Way bigger than the pictures show! Wow! The pull through sites are very very easy to get into …we have a seventeen footer and a truck. The weather was nice in March. Book it!

Great cellular reception at a quiet lake location. Be advised, two entrance doors to individual shower facility are missing locking mechanisms. Dump stations / water access at this price point is a huge bonus.
