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.

Camp site #15 - Camp facility was very good. But the weather too hot for comfortable tent camping - highly suggest taking battery operated fan. Had temps up to 103 during day, 80 at night. Many cooled off doing lake activity. We escaped to Sequoia National Forest about 45 min drive which was definitely cooler. Appreciated flushed toilets and shower. Camp site #15 had some shade but shifted during the day so did not have shade all day. It was close to the bath house and had adequate space, To get to the camp site need to walk up a ramp or climb over a stone wall.

This place is located at a beautiful location, even though it's close to the freeway the location is peaceful. To me, bathroom and shower were a major concern along with safety and after my stay, I can guarantee that this location has not disappointed me at all.

I recommend the 50 and 60-series campsites, as those are closer to the lake. I ended up loving the view from #78 but our neighbors partied until the early morning and left trash at our water faucet. Moreover, no shade was available at our site and there was barely room for a two-man tent. The bathroom, despite being in close proximity, had a two-hour line for the shower. Next time we’ll get there early and try to snag one of the first come first served sites.

No much character to this campground. Few trees. Wide open campsites with full view of others around you. But a good value at $20/night, with running water at each site (but no threading to attach a hose; you have to go up near the bathrooms to fill your camper/RV water tanks), flushing toilets, and some basic showers. Temperature here is hot even at night in late June compared to the higher elevation of the nearby national parks campgrounds.

Excellent camp hosts that were very helpful and attentive to campers needs. I showed up at the scheduled check in time, but my site was still occupied by the previous person. The hosts handled the situation with courtesy and respect to both parties. The facilities were kept very clean, and the sites were well maintained.

The campground host was helpful and friendly... but the location was just really disappointing. Don't go in Summer! The lake was buggy and just not something that you can really enjoy.. unless you are maybe launching your boat on it. Weather was SO HOT! It didn't cool down much in the evening so it was really difficult to sleep. No electricity and we didn't think to bring battery operated fans. Maybe in the fall or winter it might be more enjoyable.. but I would recommend not staying here in the warm/hot months.

I had a sweet spot for my RV overlooking the lake. We were next to the showers and the bathroom. It was so convenient. It was easy check-in and our park ranger was very pleasant. It just got too hot that we had to leave days early. Other than that, it was a great experience.
