Fish Canyon — Guernsey State Park

Within Guernsey Reservoir State Park, Fish Canyon provides drive-in camping for RVs up to 50 feet with sites positioned away from the reservoir's main water access points. The campground features picnic tables, fire rings, and vault toilets, though past visitors note maintenance issues with restroom facilities and scattered litter in some areas.

Group sites accommodate larger parties, with multiple RV configurations possible on combined sites. Water pressure receives positive marks from campers. The location sits in a canyon setting removed from direct waterfront access, making it less suitable for swimming or water activities compared to other areas within the park. Reservations are available for $10 per night, and pets are welcome throughout the campground.

Group Camping Trip

It was a weekend trip with a few of our friends. 6 Adults and 5 children. Three Rvs ranging from 16 ft to 35 ft. We got the group camping sites at Fish Canyon Campground 200A+B and 203A+B. We had planned on spending most of our time at the water but didn’t do much research. This was not the campground for that. Highly recommend going to Sandy Beach or any of the cove campgrounds if you plan on swimming. Watch out for high winds.

Hot and sunny - but might be nice with a boat

This was rated highly by others but we didn’t enjoy our stay. The State Park is spread out over a few miles around a lake formed by a dam. The entrance fee collector was not helpful in describing where to camp. Driving through it looks like you pay a fee to get in and then look for campfire rings for a dispersed camping site. Little loops are given different campground names. 

It was hot and we needed some shade. We found one spot that was down a canyon and away from the water. We were the only ones in the loop so it was private but what a mess. Garbage was all over and I couldn’t even use the men’s vault toilet near us. Water pressure was amazing and garbage cans were easily found at the end of the canyon loop. 

We did drive around to see the highlights and everything is out in the sun. They say they have miles of hiking trails but we didn’t go far because of the heat. 

If you have a boat and get a spot by the water this might have been a different experience for us.
