Gore Creek Campground offers a beautiful and peaceful setting, with spacious sites, clean bathrooms, and a friendly camp host. Guests appreciate the proximity to Vail, bike trails, and the scenic Gore Creek. While some noted traffic noise from nearby I-70 and the lack of water or showers, the campground's cleanliness and well-maintained facilities were frequently highlighted as major positives.

Our family loves staying here, this was our second year camping during the Vail GoPro Mountain Games. It's close enough to the event to experience all the event has to offer but far enough away from Vail and i70 that it still feels relaxed and secluded.

This site is one of the better sites, but it is very sloped, so it was difficult to back the trailer up into the spot and hard to get it level. Tent area is also sloped. I like the sites near the creek because the noise from the creek muffles the freeway noise, however, they're certainly not the best. #1-4 have the most noise, but they're the nicest sites, very cozy and private. This campground is very popular due it's location in Vail, but it really needs some maintenance and upgrades, it's very rustic.

What a wonderful little spot by the creek! It was quiet, and the restrooms were spotless and everyone was really respectful of the grounds.

Loved our site- site 12. Right on the creek. You can hear the highway from this campground, but not from the sites on the river like ours. Very quiet campground, nice camp host. Fun to be near Vail! Pretty campsite!

My reserved campsite (#12) had been given to someone without a reservation. When I arrived at 4:00 pm, a camper was on the site but they were away. The host refunded my reservation payment in cash and apologized. So I left and can’t recommend this campground.

It is a beautiful little campground. The pit toilets were some of the cleanest I have ever experienced. The hand sanitizer and trash bag were especially welcome touches!

I love this campground and have stayed several times. I was surprised, however, that there was no water available! We asked the campground host and he confirmed this. Thankfully, the campground is right along a creek, so we were able to fill up jugs with water from the creek to put out our campfire. Bring your own water for drinking and cooking!

Beautiful campground. Especially if you can get next to the creek. Can access bike trails from the campground.
