Visited Gore Creek twice this year, once in July and once in September. Both times at the same tent-only spot in the upper loop. Gore Creek is very accessible from I-70 but feels remote. The hiking is rich with wildflowers in late Summer and filled with yellow aspen in the Fall. The bathrooms are kept tidy and the distance between camps makes each site feel pretty private. Highly recommend!

A little gem! Small campground on a beautiful river. Basically dry camping but provided clean pit toilets and potable water. The camp host was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We hiked from the campsite. Not Real easy to find per provided directions.

My 3 sons and I had a great experience. The only complaint I had, was that the website makes it sound like all the campsites are ready for tents. When I got to the site it was covered in tall grass that made it difficult to set up my tent. For the price to rent the site I would have expected and levelled, clean area for the tent.
Other than that, everything was clean and we had a great time camping and exploring.

I absolutely loved this campground. Its small, quiet, and clean. Awesome getaway for some peace just me and my dogs. It is right by the town of Vail so easy to get any forgotten items. There is a long train right next to the campground too which was great for my dogs.
Spaces are definitely decent sized and you don't feel like you are right on top of anyone else. Facilities are well kept and management was great!
This will be a repeat for me.
