What Guests Are Saying
Gore Creek Campground is praised for its beautiful setting near the creek, providing a peaceful and private atmosphere with well-maintained facilities, including exceptionally clean bathrooms. Many guests appreciate the convenient access to Vail and nearby hiking and biking trails. However, some reviewers noted issues with noise from I-70 and the lack of water and campfires, alongside occasional challenges with campground management and site reservations. Overall, it remains a popular choice for campers seeking a serene experience close to outdoor activities.

#9 beautiful campsite on the raging creek. However, not having water available at a campground is ridiculous. Fortunately we had a 15 gal, container, but had to drive 22 miles to fill it. Never again.

Camp hosts Arva and Doug are great! We met them in 2020 during our first trip to Gore creek and were happy to see them again this year! Great camping, close to town, trails all over to choose from! Recommend !!

Beautiful campground near Vail. You can hear the highway unless you are in one of the sites right next to the creek.

Absolutely beautiful, no highway noise. we also were checked in by a human. Biking and hiking right from the campground. Real gem. Only negative thing was no dump available. It was one of the nicest campground that we stayed in while touring Colorado.

This campground is beautiful. Gore Creek running just behind our campsite. Doug, the camp host, was very friendly and kept us aware of the wildlife. We'll definitely be back.
