The sound of Maple Creek flowing through camp defines the experience at this forested campground in Fishlake National Forest. Located off Highway 50 near Fillmore, the 20 individual sites and three group areas occupy a shaded setting against red rock cliffs, with maple trees providing cover throughout the seasonal May through September operation.
Sites vary significantly in their relationship to the water feature. While the creek runs through the property, not all sites sit directly beside it, and campers often walk the dirt roads to find the pull-out areas along the water for fishing access. The creek receives regular fish stocking throughout the season. Sites 15 and 20 draw praise from visitors, while site 10 offers double the space at the same price with views toward the red cliffs. Martha M. describes it as "a forest with maple trees in the desert."
The campground provides water hookups for RVs up to 35 feet, though access involves rough road conditions that some visitors note. One vault toilet serves the family camping area, with additional facilities at the group sites. A single trail leads to Rock Canyon, though the steep, rocky terrain limits casual hiking. The camp host maintains a low profile, and ATVs are prohibited within the campground boundaries.
For campers wanting more remote dispersed options, Maple Hollow sits 5.4 miles northwest.
