Awesome campsite with ample tent room! Plenty of trees but not the most private campground you've ever seen. Access to the CO Trail is super easy! Loved it

Beautiful wooded campsites, well spaced for privacy. The available drinking water is ice cold and has a refreshing taste. Vault toilets were very clean and well stocked. Firewood is available for purchase on site from the campsite host. Keep in mind, no card transactions since there's no service out there. Bring cash for the $7 car entrance fee, and possibly for firewood, too. LOTS of Golden Aspens out there so it's a great early Fall camping option. You're gonna love it!

Very nice location well off of the busy highway. Very quiet. Great attendant at the campground. Ample restrooms for the campground.
