Panther Creek is a beautiful, serene campground. The sites are spacious and set so you have plenty of space between yourself and other campsites. A number of hiking trails lead down to the creek as well as across the campground still leaving plenty of privacy. I'll definitely be back;

I had space 11 with little to no traffic and lots of privacy. There are many varieties of trees and vegetation. It is lush. The creek is beautiful.

Been coming here for five years. The campground setting is gorgeous and the host does a wonderful job managing the site. Restrooms are the cleanest!

We had a wonderful stay at this campground. The host was friendly and interesting, and kept the place looking great. We spent most of our time at the creek, but also up and down the road with bicycles. Not far from town, so I could go in to get a connection without trouble, but far enough away to feel truly immersed in the woods and water. Fun to see PCT hikers coming through, too.
