I was there in early June midweek and the campground was nearly empty. On the weekends this site is used by motorcyclists so expect some noise.

What a great campsite. We went mid October and it was really quiet. Site 35 was spacious with a trail down to the Meadow and stream. Can't wait to come back and explore more of the trails.

Lovely campground! Stayed with a small group at site 35, which is a large site with a parking area that can fit 3 cars/SUVs. We set up 3 large tents, 2 hammocks, plus a lot of cooking equipment, and still had room for more! There's a trail that leads down to the creek right from the site, which we used each day to cool down in the water. Very dog friendly - our group's pups enjoyed themselves too. Vault toilets are clean and the toilet paper was abundant. The price of $17/night (plus $5 for additional cars) is very reasonable. Used a bit of the non-potable water and came prepared with lots of drinking water from home. Was a pleasant temperature in the high 80s with a regular breeze. Now for the downsides...it was extremely buggy;. Even with multiple types of bug spray and a Thermacell, we got bit by mosquitos and various flies all throughout the day. Plus, there are really big beetles that flew on us at night. Wish we had a big bug net over the picnic table or other areas, but at least the hammock was covered. There were also noisy neighbors - one group had a bunch of ATVs they started riding at 8am, and another was shooting guns. No cell service, but that was expected, so we brought satellite devices for emergencies.

Great camping spot! Sitting at around 7400 feet elevation, you can beat the heat of the summer. If you are a fly fisher, there is golden trout in the creek nearby. Recommend that you bring bug off or a similar product. Although we saw mosquitos, we didn't get bit. There are vault toilets here, and they had running water, but the water needs to be boiled for at least 5 minutes. The cost is 17 bucks a night plus 5 per extra vehicle and is a first come, first serve, so no reservations available.

Really awesome network of Motorcycle trails. Beautiful scenery and much lower temps than other riding areas in the summer. And the best part: Red Sticker Bikes allowed Year-round. Just a heads up: Most trails are not beginner friendly and the Bikes will have less power in the high altitude.

Had to haul gear up a hill. Most spots can only fit one vehicle. We were a little leery of starting a campfire because there was so many pine leaves and cones near the fire pits. The hike down to Fish Creek was fun. If you head North on the creek you will end up in a nice meadow.

Went with my dog. It was fun, small creek not really meant for fishing during this time of year, but maybe in spring it's better. There is some glass here and there so be careful not to step in it but overall for someone to just hike and camp it's a great place.

Fish Creek Campground has wonderful spacious spots to camp in with easy access. It is the only campground allowing campfires in the Sequoia National Forest. Plenty of vault toilets for the campers. Very nice!

Family and I stayed here for just a couple nights but the nearby creek campsite over looking the meadow was a great summer day to enjoy fishing by the creek or take a quick dip in it. Hiking is also great along this creek below the campground downstream. Campsite was only $18 a night and free fire permits available at the nearby Ranger Station.
