Our family was excited about a Christmas trip here after our Halloween and Thanksgiving trips were cancelled due to Hurricane Helene devastation.
However, upon reading the most recent reviews on Google, Facebook, Trip Advisor, and other platforms, we decided to cancel our reservation due to MULTIPLE recent complaints of theft, security concerns, and non-working gates/cameras, closed amenities, and lack of staff.
Campers beware, CreekFire keeps 25% of your reservation for a cancellation, even if it's 30+ days out. $25 is typical, 25% is absurd! Not to mention, there was absolutely NO indication of this policy that I could find on their website before booking. Even now, I still can't find it. The only place I found it listed was on the reservation confirmation email I received 6 months ago AFTER booking our stay, buried in a messy, unformatted bulleted list.
Not only is that EXTREMELY high, it is also highly unjust since CreekFire cannot provide my family and our camping equipment with basic security measures and guarantee our safety while staying on their property.
A working gate is a must, and both of theirs have been broken for almost two years according to reviews. They were not apologetic, and didn't seem to care for my concerns when I called. The girl I spoke with confirmed that the gate is still broken but they "are working on it" and that they, "now have a police officer on-site from midnight-6am" and they "have a patrol car that drives around". That gave me the warm and fuzzies!!!
We will be crossing CreekFire and other Cove properties along with their hokey and secretive business practices off of our list for future stays.

So... we are staying at creekfire campground. It is our anniversary. We figured, why go out when we can dine in the park. The pictures online and reviews looked great! We got seated right away. Our waitress was great, the views were perfect. We ordered drinks just after sitting down, and they didn't come out until after our food was served. It's not our waitresses' fault. Whoever was manning the bar was non-existent. (Restaurant wasn't packed either) When we got our food, it all looked great, but the flavor was just kind of missing for a lack of a better word. And our drinks weren't the greatest either. Maybe it was an off night? I'm not sure. I am sure we won't be trying it again. It's definitely not worth the $60 we spent.

Received a notice regarding crime in the campground when checking in. Security gates are not even being used. Hot tubs have been broken for an extended period of time, walking trail is closed also. Called before arriving to be sure all amenities were functional and was told they were. Very disappointed in what this campground has become.

This campground should have an enter at your own risk sign… campground is nice but having everything stolen while you are asleep is not something a camper should have to worry about. We have been camping for several years and never had any issues. I feel like the staff should have warned us. The police officer that filed our report said it happens almost every night at this campground…

Food was okay. Service was great and the atmosphere was quite nice. Unfortunately there is no air conditioning and the humidity on this day was quite stifling so we really could not enjoy the meal, but the setting is very nice And if you're lucky, you might see an alligator or two

Nice to have a restaurant in the campground that serves great food and the service is outstanding. Thank you
Liz was a fantastic server. We messed up our timing and she was great at quickly moving our dine in order to to-go. All 5 family members cleared every last bite of the meal too.

Food was good and service even better. Everything came out as ordered. Sat outside so it was a bit buggy but nice to sit by the lake.

Food was delicious. Ate outside in deck overlooking the lake. Had county fried steak (3 pieces), mashed potatoes, and fried okra. Price seemed reasonable for the amount of food.
