We stayed here to break up the drive while driving to another destination and were pleasantly surprised with our stay. We wished we could've stayed a few nights. Our site was overlooking the lake and we the bathrooms/showers near our site were recently rennovated.

It had rained and the ground outside our camper door was mud. then it rained more the next day and it looked like a lake with our camp rug floating in the muddy water. the campsite has not had any gravel put down for quite some time. Not likely that i will return to this site anytime soon. Other than that it was ok. thanks Larry

We stayed in site 53 for 8 days. The park was clean and well kept for our entire stay. We have Verizon phones and a Verizon hot spot that worked great for the days that I needed to work while there. Site 53 is large, however, it is a little tricky to back into with a 42’ 5th wheel. It does have graduated levels with beams at each level, but can be managed as long as you can do stairs. You have about 3 to 4 hours of sun on the south side from about 10am to 2pm, but otherwise full shade. Since it is on the end of the inner loop, the site has lots of green space that is shaded all day also. During the week, the campground is very quiet and peaceful. On the weekend it picks up a bit, but not too bad. Definitely will be back to Indian Creek.

Great shade, full hook ups, and spacing between sites was perfect. Not too close. The private beach was so nice.

We had a good time there. Campground was nice. Make sure you take plenty of off for ticks and mosquitoes as expected when camping in the woods

The campground and facilities were very nice. No phone signal at all, but I have U.S. Cellular.
Security and park rangers came through daily.
Lots, and lots of ticks.
