Our group had four sites. All were well maintained. The restrooms were also well maintained. The one guy who was doing the maintenance was doing a good job and was friendly. Not sure if the other guy that was in the camper at the host site was the host, other than asking to purchase fire wood we didn't have any interaction with him. Overall we had a good time. Thanks

the camp host kept everything very clean and well managed. There was plenty of room. They even had wood for us.

It is a perfectly maintained and clean campground and I would have given it 5 starts except for the proximity to the highway. I was awakened numerous times by trucks using their jake breaks (out in the middle of nowhere for some reason). No firewood at the campground, but the market in town sells little bundles for $6.

This is a nice location, and not very far from Denver. The trails were mowed and the grounds were very well kept. We did have a group of drunken cowboys that carried on well past quiet time, but they weren’t overly obnoxious.

Quiet, well-kept campground. A little far from the metro area but nice to be somewhere different.

Nice, clean campground with shade trees. The noise from the highway is the only drawback. We didn't realize it is so clase, and trucks roar along it all night long.
