Camping near the water

Roberts creek is a great spot. It’s pretty much where all the crappie live. There is a boat ramp that gets you on the other side of the lake which is nice. It’s a great place to kayak or canoe. It’s a no wake side so you don’t see speed boats and such.

The campgrounds are kind of busy on the weekends but most have fire pits and they sell firewood for $5 a bundle. The lots aren’t very big but it’s ok. There are showers and bathrooms also. Water hooks up and dumpsters for trash.

There aren’t to many trails, there are more trails down by the water but it’s like deer trails.

There’s also a really cool disc golf course and playgrounds for the little ones.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I make reservations at Roberts Creek East Campground?

Reservations for Roberts Creek East Campground can be made through Recreation.gov, the official reservation system for Corps of Engineers (COE) campgrounds. It's recommended to book well in advance, especially for summer weekends and holidays when the campground is particularly busy. You can also contact the campground office directly for information about any first-come, first-served sites that might be available. The campground typically fills quickly during peak season, so securing reservations early is advised.

Is there a map available for Roberts Creek East Campground?

Yes, maps of Roberts Creek East Campground are available through several sources. You can find official maps on the Corps of Engineers website, at the campground entrance station, or by contacting the park office directly. Additionally, Recreation.gov provides basic campground layouts when making reservations. These maps show the campsite locations, boat ramp, shoreline areas, and facilities to help you plan your stay.

What are the differences between Roberts Creek East and Roberts Creek West campgrounds?

Roberts Creek East is located on the no-wake side of Red Rock Lake, making it perfect for peaceful kayaking, canoeing, and fishing, particularly for crappie. The east campground features a boat ramp providing access to the quieter portion of the lake without speedboats and jet skis. Roberts Creek West, in contrast, likely has access to the main body of the lake where motorized watercraft are more common. The east side tends to be busier on weekends due to its popularity among anglers and those seeking a more tranquil water experience. Both campgrounds are managed by the Corps of Engineers at Red Rock Lake.
