Columbine Campground is exceptionally well maintained, with clean restrooms, attentive camp hosts, and thoughtful amenities like hand-washing stations and fire safety water.

CHECK your directions to this campground before coming, there is a very rough 4wd road that is not suitable for most passenger cars and RVs that both google and Waze recommended. Columbine Campground road is the best route in. The campsites are nice and have a lot of space although not very level

Over the years more guests have been bringing ATVs. While most ATVs guest are considerate of their neighbors, the traffic does detract from the beauty of this location. I would recommend not allowing ATVs.

Great place for outdoor vehicles - access road can be a bit bumpy at the beginning but smooths out towards the campground.

This campground may have been very nice at one time. It appears that they’re trying to make it better once again. There were graders and backhoes working in the campground while I was there - which I’m sure was necessary but doesn’t make for the quietest camping experience.

It is easy to miss the turn off. The road into the campground is not good lots of ruts and rocks. Great weekend at the campground.

Really beautiful and quiet site. Lots of dead leaves/sticks great for starting the camp fire.

I love this campground and the host Glen. He is so attentive and really cares about this campground. One thing that was VERY disappointing about my recent visit was the road leading up to the campground. I couldn't believe the condition of the road! It had so many rocks, tree branches and major holes in the road. My Sprinter rocked back and forth during the 1.5 mi trek and I had to go so slow that it took me almost 30 minutes to drive this road. It wasn't like that last year. Not sure what can be done about this but the road is dangerous to your shocks!!

Campground was nice. Road was horrible to get there! A road that should take you to the campground in 2 minutes, takes you 20 minutes with a camper because of all the pot holes and washboards. Didn’t know gravel or a road grader were hard to come by in Colorado.
