Really beautiful spot. Wasn't clear that there would be so many trailers and rvs and such, but the site had the option to set up farther back essentially creating a sliding scale of privacy. There's water and fire wood (and fire allowed!) We also love that little mountain, it's amazing. It was within 30 min I think of black powder pass which was a thrilling drive up a dirt road and the hike pretty quickly gets you an absolutely beautiful view of the surrounding mountain range. 10/10 good spot to be in.

Campsites were close to one another, but not too close that we felt encroached upon. Though some sites may give that impression. Other than that, this site was great. Restrooms were clean, firewood was available if needed. And for what it offers, it certainly delivered. I'd go back for sure.

Camp host were wonderful. The sites are nice and clean but a little to close together for our comfort. The only major issue we had was the amount of wasp on our campsite. Over all the area is beautiful.

My family and I took a weekend getaway trip up here, and we were sooo impressed with this camp ground!! Little bit frustrated at the beginning, due to not having cash for entering the campsite and had already drove so far to have to turn around and drive back in town to get cash. But once we found our camping spot and had everything setup, we were in heaven! Clean campsite, spacious campsite right in the middle, not too far or too close to the restrooms, quiet and, the best part, no cellphone service!! It was amazing to be able to not hear or pay attention to everything else going on in life, just family time with no electronics to interfere.
