About Angel Creek Campground

See web site and consult Recreation.gov for exact opening and closing dates each season.

Nestled in the heart of California's stunning national forest landscape, Angel Creek Campground offers RV enthusiasts an authentic escape into nature without sacrificing the comfort of their mobile homes. This well-established campground provides an ideal basecamp for adventurers seeking to explore the diverse ecosystems and recreational opportunities that make California's national forests so special.

The location itself is a gateway to some of the most breathtaking scenery the state has to offer. Towering pines, clear mountain air, and the gentle sounds of flowing water create an atmosphere of genuine tranquility that allows you to disconnect from daily stress. The campground's proximity to hiking trails means you can spend your mornings exploring cascading waterfalls, meadows bursting with wildflowers, and vistas that stretch for miles. Whether you're an experienced backcountry hiker or someone who prefers leisurely nature walks, the surrounding forest accommodates all fitness levels and interests.

Fishing enthusiasts will find themselves in paradise, with several streams and waterways nearby offering opportunities to cast a line in pristine settings. The crisp mountain waters support healthy populations of native fish, and the solitude found along these waterways provides a meditative quality that many RV travelers seek. Birdwatching is another popular activity, with the forest hosting numerous species throughout different seasons.

The campground serves as an excellent base for exploring the broader region as well. Charming small towns with local restaurants, shops, and supplies are within reasonable driving distance, allowing you to stock up on essentials or enjoy a casual dinner without straying too far from nature. The area's rich history, including old mining trails and forest service roads, adds another dimension to outdoor exploration.

Angel Creek Campground attracts families looking for screen-free vacation time, couples seeking romantic getaways in natural settings, retirees enjoying the RV lifestyle, and solo travelers craving solitude and self-reflection. The forest environment provides natural temperature regulation, making it comfortable during warmer months while remaining accessible during shoulder seasons when other destinations might be too crowded.

This is a great campground and the people running it are awesome. We have a large group and they are very good at accommodating our needs. The Maintanence on the Pavilion could be much better, out of the 4 stoves only one barely works. We asked the maintenance guy and he did not know and did not do anything about it. Not great support on that issue. I would definitely come back and they are super... This is a great campground and the people running it are awesome.

The park was clean and the sites are easy to get into. The staff was nice also. It rained pretty hard one of the nights and when we woke up the next morning we had a lake surrounding our trailer. We stayed in what I would call a wagon wheel or court. There were four sites in that area. Other than that it was a centrally located park that's close to Murphys and downtown Angel's Camp.

I used to love coming to this place and would try to come every couple of years. This year on my birthday we rented a cabin to celebrate.

This year on my birthday we rented a cabin to celebrate. Even though it's the middle of december, the park is pretty much empty, we were put directly next to a party of teenagers who kept us up all night. We had to call and complain at 2:00 in the morning when something was done finally. I thought that the curfew for noise was 10:00 p.m. but I that doesn't apply to everyone. We understand that things like this happen, however when we told the employees there at the office, all they did was apologize. We asked for a little bit of a credit back for the inconvenience but we were told that it was our own fault for not calling earlier to complain. I really don't understand Angels camp RV? Why couldn't you just avoid this whole situation by putting a somewhere else? The "Owner", who is a really rude individual, said that there was no other available cabins or any other lodging for us available, however the place was practically empty except for permanent residents. But there was nowhere else to put us??? You guys knew that there was a party of at least 10 teenagers right next to us with no parental supervision! So REALLY???I have been going to Angel's camp RV and resort for over 20 years! There has obviously been a management change and it is NOT GOOD! That was the last time I will ever go there and I will never refer any of my friends to go there again!

Our group, the gold country travelers, had a fantastic day at Angels Camp RV resort. The campsites on a hillside was a challenge for our group. All in all it was a great time we had a potluck that the staff set up for us. Very clean, Staff Was most gracious and we hope to stay there again soon.
