Camp host was great.
Reservation system changed between when we made the reservation and showed up. This forces us to go from a reserved spot to frits come first server. Finding a first come first service spot was vary trying.
Suggest sending an email out to people with reserved spots when you change the reservation policy at the cap ground they are in.

Great campsite close to silver dollar lake trail and Mt. Bierstadt trail. Creek runs through the grounds and it’s so nice to fall asleep to. Bathrooms are the cleanest vault toilets I have ever seen or smelled. Nice camp host too! Will definitely be back to this campground!

We stayed 6/7/21, site 008. There was a 6x10 patch of snow a foot or so from our fire ring. Still cool and definitely needed extra blankets in our tent. The campground is on split between both sides of the road, site 008 is creek side, plenty of trees to put our hammock. The camp host, David, came over to introduce himself. We were not expecting it given the chill but there were a lot of gigantic horseflies that flocked to our tent, we sprayed the tent with repellent. Very clean restrooms although we use luggable loo overnight. We plan to return but will plan for later June/July due to overnight temps. We reserved the spot in late January 2021, by then the spots were already taken, so you have to plan early.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
