Summary
Owen Creek campground offers a peaceful and scenic experience, with fewer ATVs this year and visits from wildlife like moose and bears. The host is praised for maintaining clean facilities, and the campground's small size adds to its charm. Some challenges were noted regarding campsite reservations and nearby dogs, but overall, visitors enjoyed their stay and appreciated the beautiful surroundings.

We loved staying at Owen Creek. Must-see for us is always the Medicine Wheel. We also love hiking and enjoying the mountains and wildlife.

Campsite number 1 is basically unusable during OHV season. It’s about 10 ft away from a highly used road. If you like to eat dust and the hear nonstop noise of OHV’s from 6am until midnight you will enjoy it.

We come to Owen Creek every year it's so peaceful the hosts were very friendly and helpful. The only thing I would suggest is changing the first come first serve sites from 2 to 1 just switch them around we usually come with a group and we reserve site one and then there is someone in between us which is silly usually there isn't a problem but this year the person in between had a dog that wasn't the most friendly and the grand kids were scared of it. Love the campground

Beautiful little campground. The creek is not visible from the campsites. Somewhat annoying that there is ORV noise and dust from the dirt road into the campsite. Campground is well kept and it was perfect for an overnight stop.
