We enjoy camping at Johnson Creek campgrounds (we've been there several times). The facilities are clean and grounds are well kept.

Park was very clean. Camp sites were too close together. Visitors in the park were friendly.

The RV spots are super easy to pull in/out of and all have water views. Some loops are very close to one another but not a deal breaker. The one dump station is on the incoming side of the narrow roadway coming in with low hanging branches if in a 5er and the roadway gets very congested on Sunday afternoon so plan accordingly. Overall our stay was great and we did not use it as a fish camp but as a base camp for exploring Jefferson about 20 miles away.

We stayed here while on a weekend hunt. Camp was great. Deer were everywhere. Unfortunately, the deer weren't where we were hunting. Oh well. Still a great weekend with the guys.

- 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.

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.
