Private sites
100% of recent Hipcampers say the sites felt private.
This property was used by the Shoshone Indian tribe as a summer camp area. Later after the pioneers came they set up a dance floor and had parties here. The dance floor has since overgrown. This property has also been the host to never dams. It has been in our family for many years and we have enjoyed it. Learn more about this land: The campsites are located in a wooded area so lots of shade. 2 sites are creek side along maple creek and the other has a small stream and a pond. All sites have a fire pit available. All sites are carry in carry out. Easily accessible with a four wheel drive. You will need to cross maple creek to reach site 1. The road down to the river bottoms is a bit steep so 4 wheel drive is recommended. This area is ideal for tent camping.

Tucked away and surrounded by trees
This is our second time here. We love the quick access and the pretty scenery. We would definitely recommend this spot for those looking for something relaxing and pretty fast to get to. Thanks Ken!

Camping at Maple Creek was a very peaceful and enjoyable stay. The Creek was wonderful! Me and my fur babies spent lots of time cooiing off.... Stary nights were incredible!

Site 1 is beautiful!
Well shaded and secluded with ample room for our get together. We had 4 trucks and 4 tents with plenty of room to spare! The stream running through was fun for kids of all ages!

Nice secluded spot and Ken was very responsive and helpful. The only recommendation for Ken would be to add signs for each campsite. We will be going back!

Beautiful and private
The campsite was beautiful and secluded, though not far from the neighborhood road. Unfortunately there was an infestation of European red firebugs that infiltrated our tent, cooking supplies, and basically everything that wasn’t in the car. We came in July, though, so it could’ve just been the time of year. But they are generally immune to bug spray. We stayed in Site 1, across the stream. Site 2 is the first one you‘ll see as you come in but it’s too small for more than 2 tents plus 1 vehicle so plan accordingly. Site 3 is next to a still pond, so beware of mosquitos, and Site 4 is up a steeply inclined hill so 4 wheel drive is greatly recommended. We were worried about one of our vehicles bottoming out on the drive there, but there were pavers that we used to cross the stream. Overall, it was a great trip and would recommend because of its beauty and seclusion.
