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.

Nice site, surrounded by trees, nice tent pad, has food locker, have to walk a bit from tent site. Site 20 is higher elevation, if you like that.

Enjoyed walking down by Gore Creek and in early June it is flowing pretty good from snow melt. Site was easy to back into and was pretty level, also close to everything around Vail

This was our first time camping in Colorado and I'm glad we choose Gore Creek. Host was great, my kids loved her. Bathrooms were clean, our space was well taken care of. There is no running water other than the river so bring plenty. We had all kinds of weather sunny, cold, cloudy, windy a little rain just come prepared. There is a couple trails within walking distance. Definitely going back there next yr.

The campground was great and so was the campground host. I just wish I had known there was no water at the campground ! Luckily the store wasn't too far so we were able to get water (at a absurd Vail prices) but other than that minor hiccup it was a great experience.
It was quiet, no noisy campers. We were away from the creek but it was still a great experience

Great site and easy to get to from Denver. The tent sites and RV sites are separated a bit. The tent sites each have a bit of a walk from the parking lot to the site, but it is worth it. Each site feels secluded. The campsite host this year was very friendly and welcoming. There are two great hikes just down the road from the campsite entrance.

We enjoyed our stay at Gore Creek. The camp host was very helpful. The toilets were clean. It is a beautiful setting especially near the creek and convenient due to proximity to Vail.

Nice campground just outside of Vail. Hidden gem with great hiking trails nearby.
