Deer Creek Campground

Deer creek is tucked under dense fir and pines along the shore of Huntington Lake. The campground offers scenic lake views, especially during the annual sailboat regatta. There are two loops to this campground: one is more heavily forested with more sites along the lake, and the other has more open and sunny sites with closer access to the resort community of Lakeshore. All sites have paved access, a view of Huntington Lake and a table, fire ring, and grill. Marina and boat launch nearby and boats can be moored near some of the camp sites. Deer Creek Campground’s proximity to the Kaiser Wilderness offers the chance to explore a wide network of hiking trails. This wilderness area is known for its scenic alpine and meadow views. Located nearby is the Billy Creek Guard Station museum, providing historical overviews on Huntington Lake, Native Americans and the Forest Service. Vista Recreation sponsors a variety of interpretive programs throughout the summer at several locations in the Huntington Lake area. Scheduled programs are posted at campgrounds throughout the Huntington Lake basin, and at the Eastwood Visitor Center. Visit the Eastwood visitor center for area information.
