This was one of the cleanest and beautiful campsites we have ever been to. The camp hosts, Rob and Kay, were warm, friendly and diligent in their work at cleaning the restrooms, cleaning and maintaining the grounds, and interacting with campers. We will be back.

Please don’t visit here! You won’t like it! The restrooms (outhouses) are kept clean and well supplied. The camp hosts are friendly and hardworking. The campgrounds are pretty and well maintained. Many have great views and those that don’t have a scenic view have plenty of trees around to create a lovely campsite.

Great facility!! Clean and very pleasant. Beautiful lake with lots of small trout. Perfect for SUP. No cell phone at all...which I like, but my wife did not due to her need to be in touch with clients. Highly recommend!

Bathrooms: excellent
Site: super clean
Bears: totally there and will get into any unlocked vehicles including campers. My husband forgot to lock his truck and we woke up to all the doors open and no crumbs left in the truck. It could’ve been way worse. My car had a bear paw mark on it but it was locked so they were SOL.

We had a 21' tent trailer on Loop F, site 49. This area is removed from the reservoir camp loops and is very quiet and relaxing. Fishing in the Frying Pan River is available on the East side of the loop and kayak, paddle board, fishing and canoeing are all within 5 minutes at Chandler Reservoir. The campground is managed by American Land and Leisure, the bathrooms are very clean and well-maintained, the grounds are mowed and trimmed. The campground offers easy access to hiking and 4-wheel trails. Unlicensed ATVs are not allowed. The area is very busy on weekends but offers good access during the week.

This is definitely the best spot in Loop A. 100 ft away from the resevoir, a slight walk from the parking lot so you're not seeing cars, a direct path to the water/dam...we loved this spot. Would absolutely pick again. Only downfall was no trees around the picnic table so bring a canopy.
