What Guests Are Saying
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.

Th campground is well kept & has great views of the beautiful surrounding area. There is plenty to do in this general area.
There is no potable water available in the campground or campgrounds nearby. Had several visits from off-leash dogs of neighboring campers.

The camp host was great, I’ve been going to Twin Lakes since I was a kid. Primary problem is it’s too popular and requires booking as soon as the new year opens. The dump station is STILL not available, seriously folks get your stuff together.

Campground was in good shape, well spaced camp sites, and nice flat area to set up a tent. Noise from highway was noticeable and you could hear the nearby powerplant every now and then. (Site 51)

Once again, there is no drinking water at White Star campground and the dump station is still closed. It's been over 3 years now for this situation and I doubt we will be going back after this year unless drinking water is once again available. We hear the same old story, maybe later this summer, maybe next year. Very frustrating. Only talked with a campground host once and that was to tell him we were leaving a day early since snowy weather was expected that night. We also checked on the Lakeview campground, since we have reservations with the family for later in July. We looked at the vault toilet in the D-Loop, and the conditions were dirty and deplorable. We checked in another loop and the situation was better.
The White Star campground was one of our favorite campgrounds in Colorado but now it's very disappointing.
