Site 98 is an easy site to back in. it is pretty long but slopes down towards the front, and slopes from right to left (facing the front). had to raise the driver side of the camper by a couple of inches. There is a decent amount of space on the site and other sites are not close to each other, giving you a decent amount of privacy. Cellular internet is slow on T-mobile and Verizon

We were amazed above and beyond by the beauty of the park and recreation areas. The campsite were 5star. Facilities were always kept clean. We plan to make it one of our favorite areas to camp now!

Indian Creek is one of our favorite campgrounds. We have been camping there since it opened. We would just like to see it better maintained.
