Do not cap at Panther Creek. Very dusty from gravel road and rude fast drivers. Paradise or Beaver are a better choice.

The site was terrific and the hostess a delight. But just after unpacking our things and setting up our tent, my 8yo and I walked down to dip our toes in the creek for a few minutes. When we returned our cooler (nothing else) with most of our food for our outing had disappeared. I've never had anything stolen while camping and this was the first instance at Panther Creek to the hosts' knowledge. -Charlie

Our second year returning to Panther Creek Campground. Very peaceful with the sound of the creek. Quiet families for neighbors. A little buggy this year, but not too bad. We'll probably turn coming back into a family tradition
