First thing I noticed was the toilets. Clean and pleasant odor. Next the grounds were also clean and ready for campers. The pines and view were great where I was B001 Loop B. Will definately come again.

This campground was kept exceptional clean by hosts. Everything was very enjoyable. Fishing was good and close to the campground. It was fun to go into Leadville and eat at a couple of the local restaurants. Casa Sanchez had excellent food and service! I would highly recommend this restaurant. We had an excellent breakfast at the restaurant in the Delaware Hotel!

Apparently the water system was under repair so there was no water taps at the campground. We had to bring all the water with us for cooking and putting out our campfire. We only found out the day before we left. Loop was quiet and pretty.

Had a great stay with our 13' Scamp RV. Level sites, very clean bathrooms! No water right now, the system is being worked on. Make sure you bring lots of water. Dan was an awesome camp host! Be aware this is a family friendly campground, so it may not be for you if you don't want to see and hear kids playing.

The site and facilities were clean and well cared for. The campground host was great. There was no water, which I was aware of. Some issue between the FS and State administrators.

There is absolutely no water at this campground. This is unacceptable. You have to drive for miles and miles to buy water. Buena Vista has locked all their water spigots in the entire town also. If you don't want anyone to camp here, close the campground. We will never return.
