Open terrain and proximity to a creek and lake define the layout at Holiday Campground, a US Forest Service site in Inyo National Forest operating from April through October. The campground is set up to accommodate large groups, with a central fire pit and grill plus four additional campfire rings. Vault toilets are on-site, though the shared two-stall arrangement has drawn complaints about odor. Drinking water, picnic tables, and pet-friendly access round out the basics. RVs are limited to 16 feet. This site works best for groups who prioritize fire pit availability and don't mind rustic restroom facilities.
Description
Holiday Campground offers 35 campsites with drinking water and trailer spaces. It is located east of Mammoth Lakes and west of Bishop on US Highway 395. This is an overflow camp used as needed only. In the winter, the water systems are shut down and Holiday is the only Rock Creek Campground that remains open. There are no fees to camp in winter and snow is not removed in the campground.
