The campground is just as amazing as everyone says - far away from the crowds, beautiful location, and the cleanest toilets I've ever experienced at a campground. We were in G Loop, had shade and a big site - the only downside was that the grill on the fire ring was too tall for grilling steaks over charcoal and we had to improvise. Only explored G loop, most sites were great, though a couple were lacking shade. Not great access for the reservoir, but the river was super close. It's a long way from Denver, but the 4+ hour drive was worth it. Hope to go back next year!
