The site had a large and flat tent platform, which we appreciated. There was also a nice overlook of Ouray within walking distance.

Great location to camp to access Ouray. One sort of gross thing that brought this down from 5 stars is that over the course of our 3-day stay, we constantly got whiffs of port-a-potty/sewage at our camp spot and within the campground.
