We have stayed at the Camp Hale Campground every summer for years and love it! The campground is small and quiet. The camp host does a wonderful job of maintaining the toilets and campsites. She will share insights and her observations about local wildlife and history of Camp Hale when asked, but otherwise works quietly, almost behind the scenes, to keep the place orderly. There is a healthy bear population in the area, but each campsite has a heatproof container for coolers!
As with most Colorado mountain campsites there are great opportunities for hiking, fishing and wildlife watching. The roads through the Monument provide opportunity for road, mountain bike and gravel bike cycling. BUT the OHV users in the area can be disrespectful, especially concerning speed and kicking up tons of dust. If you enjoy a great dining experience, consider going to the Tennessee Pass Cookhouse for a real treat. Reservations well in advance are needed and you will need to walk about a mile into and out of the yurt for dinner.
You will hear morning and evening commuter traffic from the Vail Valley workforce. If you have a choice, avoid US 24 during peak commuter hours.
The campground can be hot during the day due to geography, weather trends and limited number of trees at some sites. Be sure to bring your own water, as there is non available at the campground.

Beautiful campsite, peaceful, clean. And the BEST campground host (Traci). Gave us all kinds of helpful information about the area and things to see. Definitely want to return.

Very quiet campground. We stayed in Site #11 and it was perfect - backs up to a beautiful meadow. It is a wonderful base camp for exploring the whole area. You can hear the highway some but it's not too bad. It would be nice if they had water pumps but otherwise was excellent. Highly recommend.

This is a great campground. There is so much history regarding the location as it was where the 10th Mountain Division trained during WWII. Lots of things to do nearby, close to Leadville. Whether you come via Minturn or Leadville, it’s a beautiful drive. If you pick the right time in the fall, you may see spectacular colors as the aspen change color. Some spots don’t have much shade, so be wary at the elevation. Bring plenty of water! The same camp host was there this year as last year when I visited and they do a fantastic job keeping the camp clean and maintaining the facility. The Colorado Trail intersects very near the camp site, and not too far up the trail you can hike to a waterfall. Special thanks to the wonderful camp host!
