The campground offers access to boating, fishing, and hiking. The famous Molly Brown lived in the town of Leadville, just 5 miles east of the campground.

This is an amazing beautiful site. We were able to pull our 22 foot airstream in without difficulty. The sites were spread out enough that you didn’t notice your neighbors. We had wonderful hikes and beautiful views.

An amazing campground where you can surround your self with nature and get away from your problems for a while. Minutes walk from a jaw dropping blue lake at the base of huge mountain. The trail around the lake is what bob ross would have painted. We will be coming back soon.

Overall campground and host were great. However, out site (18) had a dip in the entrance that was so deep it bent our rear stabilizer jack.

Fire Pit too close to table so had to choose between having a csmp fire or a canopy over the table .. seemed to be an issue at most of the camp sites. Other than that everything was good!
