Good, clean campground. Our equipment is a 33' 5th Wheel - not all sites can fit. Just make sure! We backed 'er in to site 9 OK (uphill, turning hard, gravel - but certainly doable. Website says max 40'.

I stayed for 3 nights in August 2019. it was wonderful. It was not crowded & the hiking from the campground to Lake Isabel is thoroughly enjoyable. The restrooms were clean. The camp host, Steve, was next to my site & he was very helpful & friendly. I will definitely be back.

The site and restrooms were clean. The camp hosts were friendly and helpful. It was a beautiful site by the creek. We enjoyed fishing San Isabel Lake from the bank and with our float tubes.

Such a beautiful campground with shade trees, big boulders and the lovely St. Charles river right there. So close to Lake San Isabel for fishing and boating.
