I've gone to this campground every year for over the last twenty years. It is always a treat to be there.

There is a lot of traffic in this area, but that is to be expected and evident in other reviews. But the campground is LOVELY. The South Platte is just beautiful, the overlook hike nearby is fantastic for kids, and the campsite was clean and tidy. We loved our stay and will be back again!

We love this area. One of the most beautiful in Colorado! Unfortunately it rained almost the entire time so we did not stay the whole time. We are so sad but will be back there soon! Fishing is usually great. There's a short hike up to a view point that was beautiful and you can see the reservoir. And now they include the entrance fee in your camping fee.
