Poole Creek offers a beautiful setting with excellent opportunities for boating, kayaking, and fishing, making it a popular choice for campers. The campsites are spacious and generally well-maintained, providing a peaceful environment, though some guests noted issues with dust, noise from other campers, and restroom cleanliness. Overall, visitors appreciate the friendly camp hosts and the campground's proximity to scenic spots like Crater Lake, making it a great destination for outdoor enthusiasts.

Aweful camping experience!! We left 4 days early. Submitted refund request twice, no response. Toilets were FULL, trash cans were FULL, there were dirty underwear at our site when we arrived, people screaming across the campground all hours of the night. Camp host didn't care about anything. Just wild lol. Certainly not a campground for a family camping trip.

The campground itself was good. The campsites are nicely separated from each other, water and bathrooms were convenient. We had two issues that keep me from giving a higher rating. First, at this time of year and with warm weather there was a considerable amount of algae in the water so we did not feel comfortable swimming. The second problem was inconsiderate campers surrounding us. We had generators running for several hours each day throughout the 5 days we were there, starting around 6:00 am and running well past dark. At one point our neighboring campsite left their generator running for about 7 hours straight. The generator noise combined with loud talking neighbors definitely took away from the peaceful time we had hoped for. I wish the camp host or rangers would have at least enforced the quiet hours in the mornings; we had to sleep with earplugs just to be able stay in bed past 6:00.
