What Guests Are Saying
Molly Brown campground is praised for its beautiful location, spacious sites, and excellent amenities, such as clean restrooms and attentive hosts. Campers appreciate the stunning sunsets, proximity to hiking trails, and activities like paddleboarding and biking. However, a recurring concern is the lack of potable water, which requires guests to bring their own supplies.

Restrooms were awful!! We have camped there several times and this is the first time for this. They needed pumping and the odor made one have to hold our breath when entering. If this is a change in your policy, we will not be returning and will let others know as well.

This is my favorite campground area in Colorado and have been coming here multiple times every summer for years. Even in a packed campground for the 4th of July weekend, this place feels spacious with all the trees and widely spaced sites. Lots of firewood for sale, clean bathrooms, and drinking water from a tap. Nice and cool at nearly 11 thousand feet and close to the historic town of Leadville should you need anything.

Nice campground but was unable to get a site closer to the lake even though I reserved a spot at 8AM 6 months prior. The restrooms and sites were clean. Mosquitoes were plentiful due to all the recent rains and snow melt. Lots of great hiking and biking trails surround the lake.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
