Campground was well maintained, fire pit and table at each site, toilet very clean. Camphost - Liz was very friendly and offered information on the other campgrounds and day use areas. Great homebase for visiting the many lakes in the area.

Take lots of bug spray as the mosquitoes are bad!

Campground strewn with litter. Although not the fault of the Forest Service, campground infested with mosquitos, forcing us to remain inside our vehicle.

Great campground! Well maintained facilities and friendly but not overfriendly staff! The yellow jackets were definitely out but it's just that time of year!

The campground was small, but nicely maintained. The bathroom was very clean. It is very close to the highway and we had one night of a lot of traffic and loud trucks, but the other 3 nights were very quiet. It is close to Crescent Lake for swimming and Odell Lake for hiking.

Love this quiet small campground with a lovely creek and only a few miles from the lake for easy access.

The campground was closed do to hazardous trees, yet rec.gov still allowed me to book the reservation. In fact, I learned that Crescent Creek CG is first come first service and can't be booked via rec.gov. So requested a refund and was not awarded one for whatever reason. The CG itself is awesome, but apparently it is closed for the summer, but rec.gov has no problem taking your money even though its closed.

We were there for a week, garbage services would’ve been nice and also moist access to the river from other campsites

We had a great 11 days! Site number 2 was great, 3 not so much. The creek was amazing. The only bummer was the noisy traffic.

Was a very nice and quite relaxing time only one other camper per night more people used it as a rest stop.

We arrived to the site with the wrong name on the reservation board, which was slightly confusing, especially because there was a broken tent, shoes, glasses, and other garbage remaining in the campsite that we had already paid for and reserved weeks prior. Additionally, there were several pieces of chicken remaining in the fire ring, which had attracted hornets. A little more investigation found that there was a hornets’ nest in the ground between sites 3 and 4, in about the only open spot suitable for a tent. There were no campground hosts and so I had to call recreation.gov (hold time was close to 1 hr) to find alternate accommodations. I don’t recommend anyone stay at this campground considering it is so poorly kept up.

Nice small campsite...the only downside is it’s quite close to the road, so you get a bit of traffic noise, but that didn’t spoil our stay. Apart from that it’s great. The pretty creek was the best part, a short walk from the campsites; make sure to go and take a dip.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
