Cascade (Colorado)

What a beautiful spot! The campground and facilities were SO clean. The camphosts were amazing; not only did they put an adorable "centerpiece" on the picnic tables, but they came around at dusk to sing a song! Amazing! We will be back for sure.

The campground was very clean and the CG Hosts were very nice and accomodating.

Like being in a mini Yosemite Valley or tiny Telluride, this campground is surrounded by tall mountain cliffs of Mt Antero and Mt Princeton, big trees, and so quiet at night! Reservation system clogs up many of the sites, and it’s popularity filled sites early on every day. We got a reservation for a Wednesday night in site 13 to get our “foot in the door” at campground, then found sites available for following night. We lucked out with an amazing “fcfs” site 7 and swapped it out for our reservation site. Several reserved sites remained unused because they can’t fill them if reserved and the person reserving didn’t cancel. Too bad. Fun drive up the road (switches to dirt road just after campground) to St Elmo Ghost Town was a fun excursion. Fed the chipmunks (it’s a thing there). Also great easy hike to Agnes Vaille Waterfall (parking lot near Chalk Creek campground). Easy access to Princeton Hot Springs…also an access side road that will take you on shortcut over pass and straight in to Buena Vista, CO for some fun shopping and restaurants.

Cascade is a great campground. The Host couple was very attentive to their duties, and were willing to go beyond expectations to make my experience the best possible. They even welcomed campers on their first night with a little serenade! There were plenty of vault toilets and water access points, and the restrooms were spotless at all times.

I came a long way on a motorcycle in 100+ degree heat, and I will definitely come back, if I can manage more than a 5 night reservation.
