If you’re looking for a place where your kids can run free, make noise, laugh, run, and enjoy themselves this is not the place. This time around we couldn’t play music, not even low. We have been camping at Dinkey Creek for the past six years. Our last five years were memorable, we played music, played games, laughed, hiked, went in the creek, and enjoyed ourselves. This year we are unsure what changed, management? Grounds keepers? From the moment we arrived we were targeted. The Grounds keeper was rude, shoved papers in my 17 year olds face. Yelled at my husband when my husband wasn’t even at the camp site while we were playing music. He Kept making rounds and found any little thing to complain about. Honestly this all started when we played Mexican music. While we played country, no complaints. So if you have kids, want to play music during non quiet time hours, laugh, run, and play, this is not the place to camp at anymore! Rude, racist, no customer service!

Why does it seem so hard to check availability

Jason Saxton | Oct 11, 2021
Tracy | Oct 11, 2021

It's not. Just check recreation.gov ... Spots fill up so your best bet is to reserve months in advance. You can reserve up to 6 months in advance. If you are having issues it's likely because it's booked or because you are looking to reserve a spot for an off season date maybe?

There's facilities up near Shaver that should be able to facilitate that, as well as faucets on actual campgrounds where you can grab more water, as needed.
