Camp host didn't check bathrooms often enough and had to be told that there was no toilet paper twice.

We are regulars at Painted Rocks. Good clean campground with friendly camp hosts. I would recommend if you are new to camping or want a nice clean site.

004 is a great site. Neighbors aren’t too close and you get a great view of the hills in the morning. Several flat areas for tents and enough trees for hammocks. Bathroom is easy walking but not too close. Campground was super quiet in the evening, and I was there for 4th of July weekend. You also get free access to Manitou Lake! Will be back for sure

Quiet campground. The water was covered while we were there. Unsure as to why, but be sure to bring water.
