Rock Creek Lake Campground Inyo National Forest California
Rock Creek Lake Overview

Some are located along the lakeshore, while others are up next to the creek and in the forest. One group campsite is also available on the other side of the lake and close to the boat ramp.
Campground amenities include drinking water and flush toilets. There’s also a boat ramp, boat rentals and day-use area along the lake. Firewood is also available for sale at the campground.
