Inconvenient that the dump station is our of order and has been for some time and no indication of when it will be repaired.
Had a good time even though no fires were permitted.

We stayed here the last weekend of August and it was beautiful. The camps hosts are so nice and gave us lots of recommendations! The campsite is clean, easy to find, and right on grand lake. The bathrooms were cleaned multiple times however, we did stay there during a pandemic and there was NO SOAP OR SANITIZER in the bathroom at all. There is a little picnic area a mile from the groups were moose like to hangout. We saw one each day we stayed. There is also paddle board, kayak and boat rentals. Would stay here again in a heart beat!

Pros:
Clean, safe, and scenic.
This is a great place for people that are not advanced wilderness campers, but want to be in nature.
There are some trails available right near the campsite.
Close to the Rocky Mountains Naional park.
Close to a ton of other hiking trails (that you can drive to, such as Stwaberry lake and Monarch lake). Ask a nice lady at the visitor's center for the town nearby.

Cons:
As someone mentioned, there's no tree cover whatsoever. It is still beautiful though.
There was a fire ban, so we had to use camping stove (along with everyone else).

The lake and campsite are beautiful. We walked down to the Colorado river (two minute walk from camp) and it was so beautiful. Be careful though, at camp there isn't really any tree coverage so make sure you have shade and if possible a fan. There isn't any electricity but a battery powered fan and shade will do wonders.

Our campsite was very tidy and included a great bear-proof locker to store food and other items. The campground is just a short walk to Shadow Mountain Lake. The area surrounding the campsite had plenty of firewood for the campers to use, though make sure you bring an ax or woodcutter! The trees are not cut up enough to fit into the fire pit. We were able to get wood a short drive away in Grand Lake. Would stay again!
