Uphill walk to campsites. The campsites at the top are gorgeous, but you can hear the traffic from I-70 all night. Lower sites might be better. Great campground hosts. Good hikes nearby.

A beautiful location next to Gore Creek and very close to Vail Village.
Boundless hiking and fishing opportunities are close by. Biking up and down Vail Pass from here is challenging/rewarding!.

Fantastic campsite and a very nice campground host who was accommodating and friendly.
The location is close to the highway, but feels very quiet and isolated.

A beautiful campground that is close to Vail but you still feel like you are out in the woods! The bathrooms were very very clean. Lots of space between campsites!

One of the best camping experiences we have ever had. Camp host was awesome. Fells so remote even though it is less than 5 minutes from a quickie mart if anything is needed.
So quiet too even though it looks close to the interstate. All we could hear was the stream at night.

Great looking sites, close to major trailheads. Camp sites are well spaced and not too close to each other. Hosts are helpful and friendly. Will be going there again.

The hosts were the friendlyess and most ambitious that we have ever encountered. The toilets were immaculate and the campsites were the best groomed that we have seen. Thank you for your service.
