Certainly the most beautiful campsite we’ve had this year!! the Camp Host Jim was exceptional !! The hiking is great even through the burn scar trails are a little narrow, cause they’re mostly developed by horses. We plan to come back in the fall to enjoy the aspens.

Great campground! Tim was an excellent host. The pit toilets were the cleanest I’ve ever seen. Trappers Lake is a special place. Definitely will come back!

We were in one of the most spacious sites, 11. There were 3 tent pads. We were surrounded by trees. The hummingbirds and many more bird species were fun visitors. Tim was a great camp host. The area was serene and beautiful. Lots to explore.
