The site was clean, the restrooms were very clean, we were so grateful for the water pump, and my family had a fantastic time. Thank you.

Our camp host Elizabeth was AMAZING! The campground was clean, quiet, amazing and peaceful. Restrooms were very clean and the campground was easy to find and there’s limited cell service but, we were able to make calls, check emails and even stream a show for the kids to watch one night. We booked Blue Mountain because our normal spot in San Isabel was not available due to the aspen acres fire. We knew about the fire ban prior to coming and understood that there were no open camp fires so we ensured we were prepared and made the purchase of a propane gas fire ring to take with us.
We had an absolutely amazing time and will definitely be back!

Stage 2 fire restrictions with signs for no campfires, yet camp host let 3 separate sites keep their fires going. Camp host also speeds around the campground road in a golf cart with no lights. Almost hit our dog once and my husband another time. Just yells "sorry" as she swerves and speeds by. Totally reckless!!!

Nice hiking from the campground. Friendly host and the cleanest restrooms I've ever seen at a first service campground!

Best spot at this campground.
Couple of pines too close to the fire pit, close to trailhead, away from the entrance, shady, good spot for hammocks, saw a black bear pass by maybe 100 feet away.

Beautiful, quiet and shaded. Yes the restroom is close, but no smell whatsoever. The down side is there are no real flat spots for a tent. Found a flat-ish spot for a 2-person tent, but anything larger and there is no space.
