Our favorite site! Perfect with barely a sight from “next door”. Only across from your site. Best place to camp if windy. Oh yes, bonus - your own beach spot. We are so lucky to be able to score this site. Will certainly make it an annual visit - same site!

We had site 68 and was surprised by how busy it gets. It's next to a double site which can have up to 16 people. The group next to us had at least 10 people there. Even with them trying to be courteous, 10 people can get pretty loud. It's also on the cross road through the campground, so a lot of vehicle and foot traffic all around us. No direct water access and it's a long walk to the boat ramp. Wind blew down the mountains out of the east, so it felt like we were camping in Nebraska all weeknd. Trees are small and provide no shade, so there's no break from the wind or sun.

Great location. Campground was clean and quiet. Bathrooms were clean. Having water on site was amazing.

The picnic tables had pieces of wood missing from them. There were tents set up everywhere on the grass and not on the tent sites. Cars were also parked on the grass.

Campground isn't on Lake Granby but it was scenic and there were several clean vault toilets.

People were parking all over on the grass. Also, quite a few tents were set up on the grass and not on the tent pads. The picnic tables need boards replaced.
