What Guests Are Saying

Rock Creek Campground offers a beautiful and peaceful setting, with well-maintained sites, excellent access to hiking trails, and the calming sounds of the nearby river. While some facilities, like the pit toilets and lighting, could use improvement, many campers appreciate the campground's cleanliness and the absence of crowds. Overall, it's a great spot for those looking to disconnect and enjoy nature, despite some noise from ATVs and occasional maintenance issues.

Very peaceful and quiet. Cell reception is zero so plan for peace and quiet and family time or just time to enjoy the company you are with.

Visitors should be aware that there is no cell signal at the campground and the map of campsites is very ambiguous. Do you homework before reserving a campsite and traveling to the campground.

Rock Creek CG is a basic CG with pit toilets. No potable water is available. Nice location.

Nice and quiet.
The campsite is really remote - no WiFi, so plan to reserve before heading there.
There were only us and another group there the night we stayed there. There is access to a river where my husband took a quick dive into before we left.

Policies & Rules

Arrival & departure

  • Occupy the reserved site; modify reservations for site changes.

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
