White Star Campground is highly praised for its cleanliness, friendly camp hosts, and beautiful, well-maintained sites. Visitors enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere, proximity to hiking trails, and stunning views, with many expressing a desire to return. While some noted noise from nearby roads and an increase in dog presence, these were minor concerns compared to the overall positive experience.

White Star is an excellent location for many activities! We paddle boarded on both lakes, rode up Independence Pass and hiked both directions on the Colorado Trail. The only thing missing was fresh water, but we have been told that that will change soon.
Valley Site 51 had plenty of shade and space to move around for us and our dog.
The toilets were clean and well-maintained.

We tried a new loop this year. As always, the campground was nice. And cell service was decent. We have always loved Twin Lakes BUT-when will the water system be fixed? We were told years ago that it would be fixed by the next year. And it never has been. Our group will probably search for a new campground next year because of the lack of water. We feel that it is a fire hazard to have no access to water.

Enjoyable stay. We are tent campers and relocated from our reserved space in the Sage loop for a nicer site in the Ridge Loop. Ridge loop sites are first come first served, and not as newly renovated as the reservable sites, but are in the trees and offer more privacy. As of Summer 2023 there is no water available in the campground, so come prepared. We never met the camp hosts, but restrooms were clean.

We stayed one night in early June and loved it. Our campsite was beautiful, trees everywhere, and not close to anyone else. There was a pit toilet, however it was the cleanest one I’ve ever seen. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it to other who want a nice quiet place to camp in the woods.
