Cottonwood Creek

Say was good only reason I did not give an excellent is, because the bathroom smelled really bad. The Yellow jackets were really bad but, that's part of nature.

Camped here for the second time this summer. Camp hosts are wonderful! Water is currently potable although online when we booked it said it wasn't. We had a blast - we had the whole loop to ourselves.

Great, quiet campsite. Campground was everything a campsite should be. Camp host, Patrick was extremely nice and helpful. Site was clean, was enjoyable.

We stayed in loop farthest from the hwy. It was quiet and very pleasant. The campsites are spaced well apart with adequate screening. Water readily available. Pit toilets were clean and well maintained. Camp host was excellent! A couple of nice trails in the campground. The town of Sierraville is close by. It’s small . Had a good restaurant for dinner and a store to get supplies and breakfast. We actually forgot the camp stove so took advantage of the town. Close to Independence lake. A nature conservancy preserve with free kayak use Thursday through Sunday.

I can not say enough good things or express the joy it was to spend 2 weeks at Cottonwood Creek campground. It's a beautiful peaceful campground just close enough to civilization and plenty far at the same time to really feel the escape. The GREATEST part of my trip has to be the friendship and bond I made with the hosts. Carrie and Pat are truly family to me now. They work harder for and care more about the campers experience than just about any hosts I've ever been around. They go above and beyond with making sure everyone knows the rules (telling you in a conversation not just reading from a card), making sure everyone understands it's a community that watches out for each other. The campground this year has had a bear frequently about, but Pat and Carrie have been vigilant about keeping visitors "bear aware" and having everyone follow a bear in camp signal with car horns just enough to make it known and not misused. They've been doing extra patrolling collecting trash bags from campers at night to run to dumpster, just so it isn't forgotten about by anyone overnight. Pat and Carrie are class acts, friendly, nature minded, and just great examples of what a great host can be. I look forward to returning and camping at Cottonwood Creek campground again and hopefully with Pat and Carrie especially

Host was great. Facilities were very will maintained. My only complaint was my site was at a fairly steep slope and made it difficult to walk around
