Great camp host and the campsite was well maintained. The campsite was really big and we had more than enough space. The site is super close to a few trailheads and the river area was very fun to explore. We did get snowed on in early June, so plan for cold weather at this elevation. Highly recommend staying here overall!

Nice campground near Vail. Very quiet and wooded. Rustic like a campground should be. Don’t expect the locals to know about it though. It seems to escape their notice.. Great hiking trails near the entrance to the camp.

Amazing campsite! We camped in site 13, the creek was just down the slope immediately behind this site. The creek provides a perfect amount of peaceful noise and beautiful scenery. This is the cleanest campground I have ever camped in. Nice size spaces with privacy from neighboring sites. Hope to camp here again.

This has been a family favorite spot for years but we hadn’t been back in awhile. We weren’t disappointed and so grateful to be able to reserve a spot now. It used to be FCFS so this is a welcome change.

We were in at site 5 and really enjoyed our time here. The sites are far enough apart you don’t feel too close to your neighbors. The bathrooms were also very clean. Most sites are surrounded by trees and a few are along the river. The only complaint is you can hear the highway noise but being so close to town was a huge plus.

Great small campground with no hookups. Wooded and nicely kept. Restrooms very clean. Profusion of wildflowers right outside my camper door. Deluge Lake hike, right from the campground, is spectacular. Very nice hosts.

Very, well-kept campground! I stayed here one night and it’s surprising how close it is to I-70 yet how secluded it felt. Would stay here again!

Really nice campground, impeccably clean and our site felt very private. Peaceful except for the noise from I-70 at night which can be a bit disruptive (this is probably worse than usual due to the construction works which is no fault of the campground). Great base for hiking/biking, and spectacular scenery.
