About this campground
Large grassy fields are the first things you'll see when you enter Craig Creek Day Use Area, but the creek itself is the real highlight. Generations of families have enjoyed the swimming hole here and it's still a great place to escape the heat of summer. Canoeists can use the area as a put-in or take-out point and enjoy an easy paddle on the warm waters of Craig Creek. A grassy field inside the day use area may be reserved for group camping
