We had a site that backed up to the river and was beautiful. Right by great hikes and the paved bike trail.
Easy access to Vail and the host was very helpful getting firewood.
We had a great time!

Beautiful area. Gore Creek running by the campground. No amenities. Roads a little rough but OK. Trees low enough that my solar panels worked and my Starlink worked.

My low rating has to do with the system for reservations. So many people cancel after booking there 6 months ahead and there are no notifications that let me know a spot has opened up. So, you have to keep checking over and over only to miss out because someone else beat you to it.

Campground bathrooms were clean and sites well spaced. Some had quite a bit of direct sun but overall it is a nice campground

A nice little campground by the creek. It says they sell firewood at the camp but they weren't when we went at the end of July. You can get wood at the local grocery stores though. We had a nice time at here and it's pretty close to some nice trails and little towns.

Beautiful campsite. Site 16 is by the creek and the noise of the creek is really relaxing. Toilet is really clean. Convenient to get into Vail. Definitely planning on coming back.

We were driving cross country so didn’t really have time to hang out, but the campground was beautiful, quiet, well maintained and easy to access. Would love to come back some time when we can stay longer.

We loved our stay at Gore Creek Campground! We stayed in site 13, which was right by the river, and a delightful place to set up camp. We hung our hammocks in the trees by the river and had the pleasant sound of rushing water throughout the night, which masked any traffic noise from I-70. We enjoyed a talk from a local park ranger, a campfire in our site's fire ring, and overall very peaceful and quiet conditions throughout the camp. We can't wait to come back!
