We love Hopper Creek. Nice and shaded, clean bathroom. Only minus is the lack of potable water. Great camp!

It's a great group area that has a good, clean pit toilet. Bring your own water.

Our group had an awesome time at Hooper Creek. The toilet needed to be cleaned. The grounds are a gentle slope down hill. The warsh has exposed large tree roots, so be careful at night. The driveway and parking is nice. Quite and secluded.

The bathroom was clean and the campsites were free of debris. I've camped there for several years and thus know the routine regarding opening the gate and using the showers at Mountain Lake, but wonder about the experience of those new to the campsite, since there is no interaction with park employees. We did have sleep delayed Sat. evening due to the noise of folks somewhere nearby chasing after their baying hound dogs, but no one entered the campground.

We love Hopper Creek Campground. Perfect for us-out of the way, good solitude, clear clean area to camp. We'll be back!

Hopper Creek is one of the great old campgrounds. Clean and comfortable, spectacular setting. Maintained very well.

Best group camp site I've been to yet. Planned a college friends reunion camp trip here, plenty of spots for tents, parking is close and easy. The campsite is extremely open, lots of space for normal camping shenanigans. It's completely isolated from other campsites, unlike every other group campsite we've been too. No other campers within hearing range. It's also a LOT cheaper than any of the other campsites in the nearby national parks. A++ would highly recommend
