Camp hosts Chris and Kathy were extremely kind, attentive and knowledgeable! Restrooms cleaned frequently and the sites were great. Fishing was an awesome time and just under a mile hike from camp. All in all, we really enjoyed our time there!

It was okay. One site across from us had too many people like 15/20 people. Too many lights at night time while we tried to sleep. The host was nice and bathroom was clean.

The camp site is kept up very nicely, bathrooms always clean and honestly they rarely smelled bad. The hosts were absolutely amazing and so sweet! We would definitely camp at Colorado Campground again

Fun place. Bummer you can’t play in the water at the lake and we heard massive gun fire for 3 hours in the middle of the night.
Toilets were very clean, host was delightful.

Absolutely beautiful, relaxing campground. The sites and wooded and spacious. Close distance to many hiking trails. There are only vault toilets, but they are kept very clean. We have a 30 ft. camper and didn't have any issues driving through the campground. Highly recommend!

The Colorado Campground is very well maintained. The camp hosts are very friendly and helpful. They are active, and seen around the campground often. The vault toilets are very clean. It is in a beautiful area and one of my favorite campgrounds. The cell service is very spotty. Often, there is no service at all for Verizon.

We camped at site 22 at the Colorado Campground! It’s within a short walk to the lake, and you can hear the Pelicans (yes, in Colorado!) at night. We brought our two kids and dog and it was a great experience. This site was great distance from the outhouse (didn’t get much of a smell from it, but it was a short walk away), and probably most importantly it backed to the (private property) forest. Room for about 2-3 tents, some good tall po de Rosa trees to put up a hammock. The hosts were great, kind, polite, and kept the bathrooms nice and clean. I felt like they kept the campground well “patrolled” as well. Hardly any cell service but you could pick it up when you needed it. We’ll be back!

Great camp hosts. Helpful and kind. Sites are not that level. Nice to have access to the lake at no additional cost. Popular with fishing and paddle boarders.

What a wonderful experience!
A friend and I snuck away for a camping adventure Sunday- Tuesday. Reservation through the recreation.gov app made the process so easy.
We stayed in site 45. Camp hostess was unavailable on arrival, but campground was easy to navigate and marked well. Shortly after setting up - camp hostess arrived and provided us safety information and parking pass for day visit to Lake Manitou ( Accessible via trail).
Wonderful campground and very well maintained facilities. Campground hosts do a fantastic job and are so kind- firewood available and they are able to deliver direct to site. Many trees and shade available on sites and across campground. Water and vault restrooms accessible. We reserved a standard non-electric tent site.
There are many beautiful local trails in the area a short distance away- to explore. We will definitely be back.

We enjoyed this campground over Memorial Day. We stayed at site 46. It was a back in site. The parking area for the camper is slightly down hill, so un-hooking was a bit harder but still manageable. Sites are spaced well apart. We walked over to Manitou Lake everyday and fished, kayaked, or hiked.
