Great camping site bathrooms are really close to the camping area. Clean bathrooms and hot showers! From #3 spot we were able to pull some WIFI the campsite offers 😁. Definitely recommend. Lake water also very clean

As we were arriving and confused the ranger was very rude and not helpful at all. We were horse camping and the website says 2 vehicles. Each truck and trailer is one vehicle. The parking pads are only big enough for one truck and trailer so we had to get extra campsites just for the parking. It was unanimous that we will not ever camp there again. Maybe after the group camp opens it would be better, but that won’t fix the rude rangers.

overall a good experience. However there are some maintenance issues that need resolution. We were in CO60 and had electrical issues with the GFI plug on the power pole. what ever was plugged in, tripped the GFI. tried several devices. Friends in an spot two away had Water issues with the restrictor/backflow adapter on the site hose bib.

Our experience was outstanding, from the Host that helped us find a site, to the Ranger that checked us in, to the perfect site with a view of the lake. It was all good!

I came in on Friday 2/14/20 without reservations. The volunteer host gave me a map and showed me what was probably available. I found this spot and it worked out well. Although it says tent only I have a 19' (box length) travel trailer I was able to fit in the spot easily. I had a great view to the west for some awesome sundowns. I did not use the restrooms & showers as I'm self-contained I did use the water spigot across the road for water to put out the campfire as well as the trashcans. Good pressure and good flow.
Cell service with AT&T was mostly usable near the table. In the trailer 20' away it was not usable.
