Clay Creek Recreation Site

I’m only giving it 2 stars due to the fact that when we arrived at our campsite it was trashed with stuff from previous people, not only that but we were supposed to stay 2 nights we only stayed one because there was people in the campground throwing a huge party til 4am and there’s no camp manager. I used to go here as a kid and loved this campground, after experiencing what I did I don’t think I’d return with my kids ever again, They should really put an emergency number or a camp host there.

Nice camp ground, clean bathrooms, good sized camp sites.

beautiful, shady site. you could hear children playing yet the site had a lot of privacy and shelter

Good, clean, basic campground with plenty of space for camping; as well as good separation between spaces.

Great river with slower-flowing, ankle to chest depth water.

Lots of chipmunks that are entertaining without invading your space.

Bring a light source to use the bathrooms after dark.

The website could use a more detailed map to help pick a space.

You have to share the road with log trucks.

Beautiful place, very relaxing, wish we could of stayed longer!!!

Nice camp spots, very clean potties, wonderful water to drink and swim in. Our fire pit was a little on the sad side - the walls of the fire pit were crumbling, rotted metal, so it didn't hold a fire very well. We fixed it by piling lava rocks against the broken area. Note to maintenance staff: check Camp Space #11 fire pit, it needs some love.

What a beautiful hidden gem! We had 3 spaces, all with great tent pads, fire ring, trash can. One site was too tight to get our trailer in, so make sure you fit! Bathrooms are ok, standard off grid deal, no showers. Be prepared to rough it! Access to the water and natural beauty abounds! Enjoy!

The campground look like it was an afterthought. Lots of areas overgrown, and you rarely see anyone in charge there. We got there on a Monday and didn’t see anyone till Thursday as the got ready for the weekend. The host from another campground were rude, and there was no host on site. Counted at least 8 people that showed up and left without paying. The trash is only picked up once a week, so there are flies everywhere since every space had a trash can. The worst part is the road in. It is a pretty drive, till you come around the corner to a log tuck speeding with a full load and down the middle of the road. It could be a much better place if it was actually kept up on. And if you go be careful, everyone seemed to speed on that road. Even saw a motorcycle hit a deer on the road.

Such a great experience the first time I stayed, I rebooked it almost as soon as I had cell service again. Love it here! The trail is wonderful too. Caught about 50 crawdads with a net and had them in a cajun boil for dinner at the site. Delicious. Campground was clean and quiet.

Lovely, peaceful. Great camp spots. Clay creek so fun to wade in. Crawdads and fish! Not many water spigots throughout campground.
