We love going to Fishing Creek, we love the sites. Kid friendly and dog friendly. We have been going there for over 30 years. We camp when our kids where little, now we are camping with our grandchildren.

The campsite and buildings were great. The creek area was disappointing. A lot of trash around the water.

We were very disappointed in the amount of traffic permitted to drive around the campgrounds. And since the campsites are so close together, there was no peace and quiet . Pretty sure there were at least 25 people on the site next to us and the noise never stopped.

Not our favorite by far. Broken playground equipment and weird campsites. Many sites were a space along side the road for your vehicle with the power and water and the actual site set back several feet. Hard to explain just strange. Our site 28 was small but had a nice view.

Although the campsite was very nice and the bathrooms were immaculate we left a day early. In the evening there was no one to be responsible for the park. The gate was left open and the people who came into the site across the road from us were terrible. They blared loud vulgar music, were yelling and cursing all while children were camping there. This music and yelling went on until 2 in the morning.. There was no one to take care of this so everyone in the campground had to deal with it all night. We were planning a 3 night trip but we left after night 2 of this going on and went to Kendall campground on the other side of the lake. Much better atmosphere over there and someone on site all day and night. We will not be returning to fishing creek campground due to lack of management and not making others adhere to the rules.

Really nice little campground. It was just a quick overnight stop for us. The bathrooms were clean and all the sites have water and electric.
