Right off the road, quiet and convenient! The pit toilets are clean and there are dog stations scattered throughout. Our site was level and spacious.
The online pay system was glitchy so we had to run into town to get some cash. I’d come prepared next time!

Not enough stars availability for this place. Quite, by the lake, chipmunks everywhere. Fishing available. No services at all, complete boondocking.

The campsites are generous in size. There just needs to be shade shelters around the picnic tables, as there is absolutely no shade anywhere on the campground. Also, there are showers available at a nearby campground (Lake Fork), but they were not available for use. The visitor's center (at Elk Creek) appears brand new. Why didn't they install showers there instead of large meeting rooms?
Otherwise, it was a decent experience. Just be prepared to either drive into town to a nearby community center to purchase a shower.

Tom is the Camphost and is wonderful! He is very friendly and always helpful. He is continuously cleaning the sites and walking around to make sure everything is alright with campers. We have stayed here several days and will definitely be back. Beautiful views of the Blue Mesa lake!

Tom the host was incredible. He made sure all areas were clean and came by to let you know the various activities that were going on, where they were and how to get to them. There was no internet. However, the host gave daily weather and fishing updates. There is a top of the line fish cleaning machine on site. It is absolutely beautiful. Just 15 minutes from town.

Campground seems overgrown. I realize you're trying to encourage natural vegetation, but it appears unkempt.
