Dinkey Creek Campground

Favorite campground just to sit around and relax. You can hike ~ splash around in the creek ~ fish [seasonally] ~ lots to do if you don't have to be "entertained". [Has been a while so don't know current status cell svc/wi-fi.]

Small store in campground ~ basics ~ Served bkfst/lunch seasonally. Friendly staff.

We were impressed that CampHosts / ranger actually checked that we matched our reservations

They didn't have soap dispensers in the flush bathrooms. ??? Should be supplied with the Covid-19

We spent a few days here and enjoyed our time. Nice trails to the creek. Clean restrooms. Very quiet when we were here. Sites nicely spaced. Could be a tight fit for big rigs where we were at. Definitely coming back! BTW, it was 83° here and 108° in Clovis!

We RSVP site 5 on loop, when we got there the site length was smaller then described on recreation.com. Lucky I noticed site 6 was open so asked the booth employees if I can switch site; which they did. 6 accommodate our 22’ Travel Trailer an Truck.
The atmosphere for the two nights we stay was peaceful. All campers were respectful with noise.
I would of given DC a five star if they had a their own water fill station, the Ranger Station is closed for the season so filled at home before our departure.
