Cascade (Colorado)

A very nice campground, well maintained, beautiful sunrises and sunsets over the mountains and walkable distance to Chalk lake for some gorgeous views and fishing (and a lot of Stellers Jays!)

Beautiful area, only drawback was my campsite was right next to the road. Also it is a popular campground and difficult to get a reservation. There are two other campsites nearby that were closed or it would be much easier to find camping. On the more expensive side to reserve a campsite and pay the recreation.gov fee

We love this campground! Have been coming here for over 11 years. Only wish that people would respect the reservation system. It’s there for a reason. Unfortunately someone was in our reserved space refusing to leave after we waited all day (1:30-6:00 pm) for them to return to the campsite and move.

Lovely Campground. Though it was quite busy. I couldn't believe it. The reservation situation is out of hand. Many people were angry that first come first served is not really a thing. Somehow people reserved those sites. It even happened to me. I wanted to reserve three nights. Could only reserve two as the third was listed as FCFS. I figured I'd go anyway but when I got there someone had reserved the two nights immediately after me. Shouldn't have been possible according to recreation.gov. Though I knew it wasn't the hosts fault. Sheila was so sweet. The person after me canceled and I was fortunate to stay on the dates I wanted. Many angry people drove through that campground cursing about no FCFS. It's awkward. Anyway, the toilets were mostly clean. Water was available (though quite yellow). People were generally well behaved at night. Firewood was expensive at 10 dollars a bundle so stop elsewhere locally and bring your own. There is no service at all (Verizon).

Clean campground, friendly host, clean bathrooms.
