What Guests Are Saying

Green Ridge campground offers stunning views and a tranquil atmosphere, with clean facilities, helpful camp hosts, and great access to Shadow Mountain Lake and nearby trails. While some sites are close together, leading to a lack of privacy, and issues with tree trimming and parking have been noted, the overall experience remains positive. Campers appreciate the well-maintained bathrooms, though some flush toilets were out of service during certain stays, and many guests express a desire to return for the beautiful surroundings and recreational opportunities.

Beautiful trees on this campsite and enjoyed a nice view of aspens changing colors. Campsites on either side of us were a nice distance away. We were fortunate to not have anyone directly across from us. It was a very short drive to where you can put in kayaks at Shadow Mountain Lake - and a beautiful lake to explore. We also enjoyed heading into Grand Lake a couple of times while we were in the area.

The campground is well-maintained and the camp host was friendly. I'm giving it four stars instead of 5 because it is not private AT ALL! the campground is in between a residential area and the shoreline, so there are mansions on the hill that you can see / that can see you, and there is very little spacing between sites so you don't have much privacy from the people next to you either.
Also, my specific site had a yellow jacket nest in the bush between the parking spot and the tent pad. The bush touches the bear locker. I was able to use the bear locker without getting stung but I'm not sure I could've gotten away with that earlier in the summer when it was warmer.

We loved the Green Ridge campground. Great proximity to Rocky Mountain National Park and Grand Lake. Shadow Mountain Lake was beautiful. We would visit again.

The campsite was lovely with a nicely sized tent pad that was safely separated from the fire ring area. The picnic table was huge and while somewhat warped on top, was fine to use. We appreciated the fact that while heavy, we could relocated the table further away from the fire ring so that if sparks flew, our tarp would have a lessened chance to be affected. The drive through the campground was nicely paved as were the parking spaces for each site. The bathrooms were kept clean and well-supplied with toilet paper and the water faucet in the bathrooms worked well and the sinks were kept clean. The only issue we found with the campground was that the bathroom that had flush toilets and cold-water served sinks had no lighting at night or power to the hand dryer. The other similar building in another loop of the campground was too far to walk to at night. An adjacent issue one night was that on the ridge above the campground that separated it from Shadow Mountain Lake and along which ran a drive to access the trails adjacent to the campground had a group of teenagers or younger adults who played music and laughed and spoke loudly until at least 2am one night. A camper from our campground finally went up the ridge and told them to leave. Apparently the campground host hadn't heard them as he was nicely ensconced in his large and likely well sound-insulated motor home vs what we and others had as tent campers.

I'd highly recommend going to this part of Colorado and using this campground.
