Clean sites/facilities, level pads, friendly hosts, quiet campers and free firewood. Who could ask for more? Of course I camped on a Thursday in early June, not sure about the noise level on a weekend.

Spacious tent campsite, next to restroom. Be aware that to reach the picnic table, etc., you will need to climb up terraced dirt steps. Also while I was there, other campers used my driveway where my car was parked as a path to the restroom instead of the actual path. If I had opened my car door, I would have hit them. As I sleep in the back of my hatchback, this was way too close for comfort.

Mary and her husband were amazing camp hosts. Bathrooms clean, shower hot. Had a nice time there during a rainy day. I liked being there during the week where there were few other people. Highly recommend for solo travelers looking for a peaceful place to land.

Quiet campground in mid-week. Sites are pretty heavily sloped and the parking spots definitely require leveling blocks for RVs. The sites have nice level tent pads. The sites are all very shady. The restrooms were in pretty good shape and clean, and there were hot showers. The campground hosts were very nice and seemed to make a point of engaging with campers.

Beautiful woodsy campground. Pretty quiet when we visited on a Tuesday night.

The site was very nice and exactly as expected. The turns were a bit tight in my truck but it managed. Site was clean and literally out in the woods. The camp site was very full and tons of kids and pets and noise. If you're looking for a place for quiet, this is probably not the place. but if you're looking for a nice, clean campsite and don't mind noise of kids/people, this is good. Bathrooms were really clean and the utility sinks were good. Nothing much else to say. it was very nice and definitely on my list to revisit.

This was our third family campout at Owens Creek. The campsites are nestled among tall trees with level tent pads, large picnic tables and fire rings with ample firewood available. The camp is family friendly with clean and well maintained toilets and bath house. Hiking trails are easily accessible and Huntington Creek Lake is a short drive away. A great place to relax and recharge.
