Camped here quite a bit. Only problem is fire pits need to be emptied of previous ashes and trash.

We love the Area and the wild life that is very abundant in the forest. The grounds are very well taken care of. Shower house was clean. This is our go to place for a relaxing & recharging time around the lake. Restaurants have great food, plus folks are a hoot to boot. We are returning ASAP per our crazy schedule.

Indian Creek is a beautiful, peaceful, campground. Everything is very clean. The hosts are very friendly. The campsites are very nicely spaced. We will be back.

We reserved our site and I called about the size of the site. We have a 38 ft. travel trailer with slides on both sides. I asked if this site was big enough and the person told me it will be large enough. I did squeeze our trailer into the site, but had to adjust a couple times so we could get our slides out. One slide was an inch from a tree on one side and the slide on other side was very close to the water spigot and electrical pedestal. When we left we had to watch to make sure the tail end of trailer did not hit trees as we pulled out. The person we talked to must not know the layout of the campground. People taking reservations should be at the campground or at least know the layout of sites. There were plenty of sites that were not in use that would have handled our size camper better. Maybe the person checking people in could suggest moving to a better site if available.

I kind of expected the campsite to be a little messy (in April), but to our pleasant surprise it was in perfect condition and the surrounding area was well trimmed and clear. Bravo to the ground staff. Our site (043) service connections were in a perfect position which made for an quick setup and the trailer driveway was almost perfect which made for easy leveling. We had a great trip. Thanks

The campgrounds were decently clean notwithstanding lots of trees and limbs on the ground. Bathrooms were clean didn’t use the showers. My site “5” had water standing most of the time around the w/e/s hookups. Also the sewer “connection collar” was loose in the ground and allowed some leakage while dumping and was too high so my hose ran uphill. Otherwise we enjoyed the trails, wildlife and birds. Not much for shopping in Monroe City and it’s not that close, so load up when you go. Only 5 OTA channels and all were religious.

Sites are clean and people respectful of quiet hours. Cell phone service was available when we needed it as well. Great trail for walking too. This was our 2nd time here and we will stay again.

The sites are well spread up amoung mature trees. Some hiking trails along the lake perimeter would be nice for exercise.
