Cristopher Creek Campground (CCC) was amazing! I have passed by this place 100 times but never stopped- My wife and I used this short trip to test the boon-docking capabilities of our RV trailer but found it to be so enjoyable! We were in site 35 and have a 20 foot trailer with bed pop-outs on front and back making is about a 30' end-to-end and it fit perfectly. Best-part was we were surrounded by the mountain and it felt like our own heaven. I recently returned from a two week camping trip in the Eastern Sierras and, unfortunately, had to deal with a jerk of a camp host. When we arrived the CCC, Cheryl was quick to come and meet with us and was friendly as ever! Her trips around the campground (about twice a day) was perfect. She kept the place well-maintained and beautiful at all times! Such a breath of fresh air! IN every single way! Thank you! See you next time!

Amazing campground, plenty of room to set up. There is table, grill tops, fireplace and a bear safe. The host Sharon was extremely friendly and helpful! Life saver on the way out when our car wouldn’t start and she jumped us off! Much appreciated!!💕 We’ll definitely be back, campground was very well maintained. Bathrooms were very clean, the smell is obviously unavoidable. Beautiful views and lots of wildlife to enjoy.

First time camping as a family and this was definitely an awesome experience, no body in your business just you and nature. The outhouse was clean just smelt awful 😂 nothing you can do about that. I was expecting more hiking options but you kinda just had to make your own path and hope for the best. My kids loved it (3 and 1 years old). Will definitely return with my extended family. Thank you everyone!

We've been camping at christopher creek for the past decade and it is always reliable for a relaxing time. I would recommend staying in the b loop as it's a little more spacious and backs to the creek. My son has thoroughly enjoyed exploring the creek from when he was 5 to now 16 . It is very clean and we'll kept. Only a 20 minute drive to woods canyon lake and 20 minutes from the nearest grocery store. Christopher creek is the best camp grounds to make long lasting memories.

Enjoy this camp ground a lot. Rained 2 out of the 3 days we were there - but still was beautiful and relaxing. Camp host was friendly and made sure everyone was ok Durning the storm.

This is a wonderful campsite that is pretty well maintained. The camp hosts are friendly and informative. This is a go to place for me and my 2nd time going this year. The sad part is the creek is dry and there's barely any water in it. The pictures of the creek in this post was from June. I'm hoping the creek will fill up again soon.

Dusty and Cindy were so welcoming and kept up on the fire restrictions and made us feel so safe with the dry forest. They also kept up the campground by keeping bathrooms sparkling and picked up trash from the campers and groomed the grounds. Thank you Dusty and Cindy!!!!

To the amazing park ranger on June 12th 2025, I will forever be grateful for you and your time helping fix our broken down vehicle at the campgrounds. We were completely stranded and he was so generous to help us in any way that he could. You will forever be in our hearts forgetting myself and my baby boys back to the valley safely.

Lovely campground situated around Christopher Creek. Potable water, grills, fire pits, and pit toilets. Popular place with lots of kids and families around. Make sure you have headlamps for after dark and are physically prepared for the cold plunge temperatures that happen overnight.

It has amazing campsites! Easter weekend they were all first come first serve and they are all great sites. Of course, some are better than others. They have bear proof lock boxes at each campsite to secure wood and other items. They have fire pits and grills at each site as well. It did decide to snow Friday night so it got pretty cold but it made for a beautiful Easter weekend out of the Valley ❤️🏕️

Great Creek. Lots of crawdads. Some camping spots are a bit close together, and on weekends the sound of the road can be annoying at night - but overall a great spots for kids and adults to hang out and cool down under the trees and play in the creek. Good access to the rim, lakes and fish hatchery nearby.

It would been a 5 star if only the toilets weren't possibly the worst ever. There was no staff onsite and every single toilet was super stinky and unhygienic with flies all around. These were pit toilets with no ventilation whatsoever. If only we had known or researched this beforehand, would probably have skipped the campground altogether. That being said, the campground itself is beautiful with tall palm trees all around. Every site comes with bear proof box, which we saw for the first time (and got a little scared too ). The sites were well spread out and still didn't feel too far away. There is a little creek which was fun. We had a blast overall, if only not for the restrooms.

Nice large camp sites that are clean and spread out. Creek with crawdads goes around it. Bathrooms are cleaned regularly. Vault toilets no sinks or other services. But there are water facets for drinking, dishes, etc. Heard elk not far away. Nice it’s far from the road so you can’t hear highway traffic except for loud semi trucks. Host was great! Super helpful!

Based on the reviews being positive...I was surprised to find a dirty and rustic site with one shared very dirty unisex bathroom for 6 campsites. It was disgusting. The other restroom didn't lock. Keep in mind it's about 16 people using one toilet. We picked up trash around the campsite for the next campers since it's not done by the hosts. The squirrels are cute, fun, and little scavengers.... so watch out! Other than that... the creek is cool, the trees are shadyand my family had a nice time and the other campers around were polite. We had site #13 and #14 and there were plenty of tent spots to choose from. Kids love playing in the creek catching the crayfish and minnows with their nets.

It's a bit crowded, but overall a good trip. The staff are very cool. Most cell carriers cover the area. It's family friendly and a good place to try if you are new to camping.
