tent pad was super small. Likely only big enough for a 2 person tent. Put out tent in the ground behind and unfortunately it flooded during a rainstorm but otherwise pretty site.

Had a great experience here. The grounds and latrines were very clean and well maintained. In walking distance of the lake and trail heads and close to Leadville. Some camp sites were much more spacious and flat than others, so be sure to look at the pictures before you book.
