Mountain Park

Great

It's a beautiful park with many wooded sites and it provides adequate space between the sites.

My son and I spent four nights, from 23-26 August, at the Mountain Park campground. We had perfect weather and had a terrific time. The hosts have done an excellent job keeping the park in great shape, and our 'neighbors' were the best. We had a campfire several nights with the wood sold by the hosts and the fire rings worked perfectly. Each day we took a morning trip to local areas including Joe Wright Reservoir, a alpine meadow park on Laramie River Road, and the town of Walden.
We brought along a 6 gallon water jug that we used to fill the water tank in the PUP, and refilled it once from one of the potable water spigots located near the vault toilets. They even have showers available for 50 cents!
Being only an hour and a half from Fort Collins, this will be a park that we go back to regularly!

Appreciated the on-site hosts. Outhouses and showers were very clean and well kept. Absolutely no cell service, but that was ok. Make sure to bring cash or a check for firewood bundles! All around an awesome experience! Thank you, we'll be back!

Friendly

The most amazing hosts in the area! Truly a great spot, hence the reason we have gone 16 year straight!

Perfect in every way. Needs more electric hookup spots???

Great campsites! Spaced decently apart, everyone was friendly, and bathrooms were clean. What else could you ask for?

This is an amazing campground. We reserved Site 22 but camp hosts Dee and Dave were wonderful enough to point out first come first serve Site 17 that had more privacy and still had an electric hook up. We were within walking distance of the very clean vault toilets. And the coin operated shower house was right down the street. First time using a coin operated shower. It was so clean and super easy. 50 cents for 5 minutes. Firewood $7 bundle sold at camp hosts site. Ice can be 20 minutes east, down the road at the Buffalo Lodge Store.

The campground is super quiet and surrounded by the Poudre Canyon Mountains. Dee and Dave are amazing and super helpful. We will definitely be back. Our site was within walking distance of the Poudre River which you can hear roaring at night. Also hiked the Mt. McConnel Trail with the kids behind the campground. It was a challenging 4 hour hike but a good time. Saw a mule deer lounging on our trail 1/2 way up. Love love love this place.

You can fish for trout out of the river, catch and eat up to 4 even, but the river was very black and we didn’t get a single bite. There are areas near the river to swim or wade but it’s ice cold. Some people were even tubing up and down the river near the campground. Farther down you will see several river rafting outfits like Wanderlust Adventures Rafting. Very reputable raft company. Overall this is an amazing campground.

Great park, great camp hosts! We will be back ;)
