The campground was really spectacular, the wooded forest was beautiful, and the grounds were maintained really well (always nice to have a cleaned and maintained vault toilet). Lots of hiking is around the area, and we especially enjoyed the off-roading just continuing on the main road too!

Camp Host was awesome. Campsite was dope. No WiFi & limited cell service only for Verizon. Clean bathrooms. Lake NightHorse for excellent paddle boarding and swim/lake pad.

The camp hosts were very nice. The campground was clean and well maintained especially the bathrooms they looked almost brand new. The river was very close along with the Colorado trails so there is plenty of hiking and mountain biking to do.
