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.

We have always loved these sites in the Mountains by the Creek. Easy to get around in the area. Nice hiking right at campground.
The sites are large and private. Always great informative hosts.

Doug and Avar are the best campground hosts that I have ever experienced. They were available for campers to ask questions all the time. There was no sign on the door like other hosts have put up on the door. The bathrooms were the cleanest pit toilets that I have ever experienced. The sites were raked when we arrived. The trail to our tent site was raked. And they were extremely approachable and friendly. I have been camping at this campground for twenty years and they are the best ever hosts.

Site 19 is great. It is a walk in site but feels very cozy. You see site 18 but they are far enough away to still feel cozy and alone in your site. I highly recommend it. This campground is very close to Denver and the hosts were great. Pit toilet bathrooms were very clean as well as the sites.

Gore Creek campgrounds are close to Vail, easily accessible from I-70, yet provide a tranquil and expansive setting for your next camping adventure. Dry dock sites are large - several directly adjacent to Gore Creek. Hiking trails nearby are amazing. Amenities at the sites are great as well with toilets, trash cans, and fire pits/bear lockers/picnic tables at each site.
