Another great camp here at Cold Springs this past weekend. Campground is well maintained except there is no water at this time even though the website says so...very important. I showed up at camp finding out no water due to water system failure. Besides that the host's were friendly and maintained the restrooms and sites. Beautiful views from the vista at the end of the campground is a must see.

The web site showed that all sites were first come first serve for Friday and Saturday. This was not true or accurate so that cased lots of issues for our large group. Apparently we are not the only ones who had this happen and it is an issue that needs to be fixed with the web site. The camp host were able to help us move to four sites that were actually first come first serve and I apricate their help. The camp host told us several people have had this same issue with the web site. It was a huge inconvenience to have this type of glitch on the web site.

We got rained out so we did not stay even one night. We tried but wet camping is no fun with toddlers. Stinks we lost the money on the site.

Really nice campground. High elevation, water wasn’t available yet (late May) but there were spigots and it is available later in the season. Restrooms were really clean and we appreciated the air fresheners. Nice short trail up to an awesome vista from the campground. Camp host was nice.
