Loved our large campsite. Loud music all night had to report to camp host who did come out and tried to quiet the party down. Music continued all weekend past quiet time could not hear the sounds of nature. One toilet shut down I was advised it has. Even out of order for over a year which made all campers on the backside use one toilet which needed pumped very badly it was full and stunk. Camp host was friendly and made the water faucets easy to see and had lights in the bathrooms which was nice bathrooms were not cleaned daily there were toilet paper rolls just thrown on the floor with stale urine all down the front. Host was very thoughtful about people blocking roads and paying for their spots and campsite fire rings were clean. We had an amazing view of the lake sunsets were beautiful!

Great experience. Water was fantastic. There is potable water on site. The meat bees were completely annoying, which has never happened before, but the camp sites were large and spaced apart nicely.

Let me start by saying that I have camped at Spring Creek my whole life and it has always been a beautiful, peaceful time in nature. We have now had 2 negative experiences this year, both at site 27. June 2024: -Filthy bathrooms. Pee and sanitary trash all over the floor. Out of sanitizer and toilet paper. Let the female host know and for the last day and a half of our camp, it was never refilled and the bathroom never cleaned. -A group of 15 (and more during the day) in the next site over (with a posted max of 8) that partied all night. We finally went to get the host when this group was screaming, blasting music and kicked on their generator at 11pm. The female host yelled at my husband and told him that she had to work in the morning and didn't want to be woken up late at night with issues. Told him that he should have complained to her earlier. -People cutting through our campsite to go to the lake because the actual trails are not marked and people have no common sense. I am not talking about people skirting our camp, they were walking in between our cars and walking between our picnic table and our trailer. It got so bad that we put a rope up between our cars and drew an arrow with chalk to the trail and people still stepped over the rope and walked through our site while we were eating at our table, even when we asked them not to and pointed out the side trail. The female host accused me of trying to block access to the lake by not wanting people to walk through our campsite. Do not expect privacy or general courtesy in site 27. -Despite trash everywhere and filthy bathrooms, the female host spent most of the day walking her new puppy by the lake and chatting with everybody -Beer cans and trash tucked in the rocks in the canyon and all over the beach, trash floating in the water. July 2024: -One of the two bathrooms in the back loop was locked up and there were a ton of people waiting to use it. I flagged down the male host and told him the door was locked with nobody in it and he said it was out of order. No signage indicated that this was not a working bathroom. -The single working bathroom was, again, out of toilet paper and sanitizer for a day and a half with the added bonus of poop and blood running down the front. This bathroom was not checked or cleaned, despite being the only available bathroom. It was commented by another camper who had been there all week that the host was regularly only cleaning and restocking the bathroom closest to their own site and ignoring the rest. -One site up the hill from us had 4+ cars parked in it with a truck even parked IN the campsite. Another rowdy group of at least 15 people blasting their music and leaving their trash everywhere. The host did nothing. -Again, people cutting directly through site 26 and 27 with no regard for the families occupying the sites. -Trash, cans, clothes, floaties, toilet paper on the beach, in the water and stuck in the bushes around the campsites -Jet skiers and boats speeding and whipping around in the cove with no regard to the children swimming in the water -The people in site 25 packed up and left with their campfire still burning (with the log so big it was hanging out of the fire ring), we put a bucket of water on it and informed the host. He opened the door to his trailer and it reeked of whiskey (at 10:30am), he yelled "F..k!" before closing his door. He came over and put it the rest of the way out but it is scary to think what could have happened had he continued to NOT keep an eye on the campsites and a fire had gotten loose. All in all, we will not be back. This campground was poorly managed on the two weekends that we camped there and between the biohazards of 50+ people sharing one dirty, unstocked toilet, trash everywhere, the loud partying and general disrespect of other campers and the hosts seeming to care more about relaxing and drinking than actually doing the job that they are being paid to do, both trips were miserable and we will seek out other campgrounds where the hosts actually care.

Enjoyed the time. Did not have a nice spot for our camper and was super hard to get into.
