Summary
Craigs Creek Group Area is a great venue for large gatherings, with clean restrooms and well-maintained facilities. Guests appreciated the helpfulness of Ranger Christine and the overall cleanliness improved after the camp host arrived. Some noted the pricing as a bit high and mentioned a need for road improvements, but overall, the experience was highly recommended.

Craig's Creek Campground was in perfect condition. The campground host couple was extremely friendly. We had a most enjoyable experience. The Wayfarer group looks forward to coming back to Craig's Creek again.

My only complaint is that campsite B is not level. It kind of felt like you were sleeping on a slope. But the campsite itself was nice. We enjoyed ourselves.

I recently stayed at Craig’s Creek Site A and had an overall excellent experience! The natural beauty of the area is simply breathtaking, and the amenities provided made our stay comfortable and enjoyable. However, there are a couple of minor areas for improvement that would elevate the campground even further.
First, the bathhouse and restrooms could benefit from a bit more attention, particularly in terms of pest control. We noticed a few spiders during our stay, and a thorough spraying would certainly enhance the comfort and cleanliness of these facilities. Additionally, some of the wood on the picnic tables and grill tables is starting to show signs of wear and could use replacement soon to ensure they remain safe and inviting.
Despite these minor issues, the campground is truly a gem. Bill, the camp host, was a standout! He had the entire place mowed and looking pristine, which really added to the overall ambiance. It's clear that he takes great pride in maintaining the grounds. Bill's presence was reassuring, as it felt like there was always someone around to keep an eye on things, which added to our sense of security. Plus, he was incredibly helpful, offering firewood and ice for purchase, which made our stay even more convenient.
In conclusion, Craig’s Creek Site A is a fantastic destination for anyone looking to enjoy the great outdoors. With a few small improvements, it could easily be a five-star experience. Thanks to Bill's hard work and dedication, we had a wonderful time and will definitely be returning in the future!

The bath house was not cleaned before we got there, had to clean it ourselves before we could use it . After the camp host arrived the third day things got much better!!
