Great campground with many spots next to the lake. Clean. Very friendly camp host. Camp sites are on a kind of tier system up the hill. Dump station is on one of those tiers. Bathrooms were clean but dated. Separate building for handicap was newer. Only one small trail behind the campsite. Most trails are across the lake.

We just love the peaceful atmosphere at Fishing Creek Campground, with the beautiful lake views. The camp hosts are so friendly and easy to work with. It is a wonderful place to visit. Almost all sites have water and electric (including tent only sites) so make sure if you have an RV you are not booking a Tent Only site. They are all clearly labeled on Recreation.gov. We highly recommend this campground!!

Quiet place. Cell service is mediocre. Plenty of water pressure. No golf carts.

Hosts were very pleasant and friendly. Don't believe website was very accurate on site dimensions. Did not use washers and dryers but looked overdue for replacement.
