Always enjoy the views and playing in and around Rampart Reservoir. Camp itself was very clean and tidy! Fishing for trout is always fun while paddleboarding or kayaking on the lake!

Very quiet, beautiful campground. I normally camp in dispersed campsites only because I don’t want to be around people. Although you’re fairly close to others, there’s enough trees in between each site to make you feel more isolated. It’s beautifully located on top of a ridge overlooking the reservoir. There’s a trail that leads straight to the reservoir from the campground. The host was very pleasant.

The view from the campsite was beautiful!
Our site (#10) was a bit steep of an incline for a larger tent, but we made it work.
The camp host was very helpful and friendly and We really enjoyed the hike down to the lake. We will definitely be returning.

Nice site and grounds. The trail to the water is between sites 12 and 13 and it's about a 15 minute walk. We fished and enjoyed hiking

Site 11 has wonderful view of the lake but is not very level. Difficult to park our 29 ft trailer even though the site is pull-through. Lots of wind o the ridge.
Camp host was helpful and accommodating
