Loved Third Creek Group Site. Was bigger then we thought and we had all to ourselves for quite a long way. Probably can fit like 8 trailers and 20 tents easily. We took our ATV's up the canyon and that was great but no loops as there is locks on some of the ATV gate trails. Regardless we will be using this location again.

A little messy from the previous group before us, but the grounds themselves were well maintained, cool, the Bowery had great space and plenty of coverage.

Everything was as explained on the website. Bathrooms were well maintained. Pavilion was great to spend it under especially in with hot sunny weather and rainy days. Garbage pickup or a dumpster would be nice with bigger groups camping. I’m was a great time for everyone who came. The reservoir for fishing is close by and it is close enough to get things from the neighbouring towns.
