Horseshoe Campground

The campground was well maintained and the host, James, was personable and helpful. The campsite was spacious and away from the road. I enjoyed the trails all around. The road to get there, (4 mi road), is pretty rough on the vehicle so take it slow and be patient. The mosquitoes in this area are no joke! Every one of them are the size of Tinkerbell and they have a relentless disposition that would be an admirable quality if it didn't belong to those blood suckers! I read the reviews...I had the spray repellent, I created a force field around myself... they still hovered around me like a little brother saying "I'm not touching you, I'm not touching you!"
The vault toilets... I'd rather hang out with Tinkerbell-squito. They were super rank.
Overall, great campground and I'd come back again.

Mosquitoes were atrocious. The lots are only marginally trailer friendly.

The campground host while present and greeting customers, did not have the bathrooms clean. There was trash overflowing the trash can and trash on the floor, something that you would expect to be clean since the host was there all day not doing much. He came by an hour after the check- in time when we showed up and made a show of cleaning the picnic table, which was already clean while ignoring the bathrooms completely. Then at 9 P.M. he turned on his very loud generator and left it going until I finally got out of bed and went and knocked on his door and asked him to turn it off. By that time it was 10 P.M..
He did make sure people were checked properly to campsites, so I guess that was good.

Great campgrounds and great host

The only reason there I didn't give it 5 stars was that there was no firewood. It would have been nice to have a fire. But the campground is amazing, stars were beautiful, hikes were wonderful, and the campsite was perfect.

Nice site set back from the loop. Easy trail access, host was very knowledgeable about the area

Good

Fantastic trip and the new campground host is very helpful!

Horseshoe was a remote, and in some ways challenging, location...but well worth the effort. Aspens in full fall glory created a really festive environment. The layout of the campground is very nice, allowing plenty of space between sites...even though it was sparsely occupied at the time we were there. The campground was well maintained by the very present and personable camp host, Celso. He took obvious pride in his job and made it a point to connect with each camping party in a friendly and helpful way. As for the aforementioned "challenges", one must note the rough unpaved 5-mile drive up the valley, the very high elevation (10k+) which made some trailer appliances not work very well, and the lone water source: an old fashioned hand pump which demanded quite a bit of hard exertion!

Great experience
