We love this campground for a quick visit. It is a pleasant place and close to Jefferson Lake. Betty and Tim are the camp hosts this year and they are amazing. The grounds are kept clean and the bathrooms are kept very clean. They were both very friendly and helpful!! Hoping they return in the future.

We came during the week and it was great, probably less than half full. Looks like the weekends are busier. Hiking, kayaking, 4-wheeling, and opportunities to view wildlife. We also enjoyed going to the coffee shop in Jefferson everyday to get Wi-Fi and have a great cappuccino.

Lodgepole Campground has a nice hiking trail that connects to the Colorado Trail. The pit latrines were clean and well maintained. The parking spot for site 14 isn’t especially level for trailers or RVs. But the picnic table and fire ring were more private than many other sites.
