Fry Creek Campground

Absolutely loved this place, it was my first time camping and my boyfriend couldn't have pick a better spot. Dog friendly and lots of space and trails everywhere. Tons of bugs but this netting was a life saver. I recommend 5-7 because it’s the closest to the bathrooms and not much up hill walking to them.

Nice clean campground! Very clean bathrooms and water. Narrow single lane road goes steep uphill, and the sites are each off the road and very visible, but also have lots of shade. It’s very hot in the summer. With the droughts the creek is not running at all. But observatory, hiking, and general store is close and it’s half as expensive as nearby sites. As mentioned on other reviews, some sites are reserved/closed, which is probably either for renovation or nature protection.

The route here was quite nice and beautiful. We love this campground despite all the 3 stars reviews I have read over. The trail next to it was nice and has great views. We did not have any bug problems nor issues with mosquitos. This is the perfect time to camp here because it is cool but not too cold and it's not hot and the sunshine just hits you right when you need a warm up.🙂 we really enjoyed the hike and the campground is clean. This is a nice place to get away from the city.

We stayed in campsite #9 not flat area at all, very close to the road no privacy. There are other campsites far from road campsites 5 through 8. Keep your dogs in a leash due to cars coming in and out, summer is filled with mosquitoes, flies and bees.

I was looking for a last minute place to camp and found this campground. Sadly the creek was not running. The campsites were clean and their was water close to our campsite. We were camping in a tent site, so I’m not sure of what’s available for larger rigs. We drove through the campground and there are definitely sites for larger groups and camper units. Loved the redwood trees and the stars put on a great show. I booked this on the reserve CA website, and according to the website, I booked the last available spot. However, there was only 2 other campsites being used. I walked through the park and although there were sighs saying they were reserved, no one was there. I’ve been traveling around and every “Fully Reserved “ campground is less than half full. Let me know if you have witnessed the same thing.
