Absolutely stunning. Tucked away but close enough to Basalt that if you need something it’s available. Clean camp grounds and lots of fish when we went in late September.

The campground itself was ok. There look to be a few sites better than others but some are very exposed to both the sun and other campers.

Sites are really close together- no privacy at all
would not stay here again
Camp host not available and had off duty sign up entire time we were there.

Small, quiet campground. Access to water is easy. Nice trees for shelter/sun.
Bathrooms very clean!
