Collegiate Peaks

Enjoyed our time there.

This is the second time I have stayed in this campground. It is beautiful. The only reason for less of a rating is the host seemed a little lazy. We stayed 4 nights and never saw the bathroom cleaned. Toilet paper remained on the floor. No hand sanitizer.

Beautiful campground however there is much car traffic throughout the loop where all campsites border. This creates a lot of dust and noise (and light at night) most hours of the day. Sites are well-spaced but you can still hear your neighbors easily. Pump water is available although it has sediment and is not chlorinated so needs to be filtered. Host was available for emergencies only, not to answer questions or give recommendations. Recommend not staying in a site near the bathrooms as the sound of the door opening and closing is constant. Sites near the river are lovely however expect people from other sites to walk through your site to access the river. Bathrooms are the cleanest I've ever seen at a campground. Location cannot be beat as it's close to multiple trails and a short drive into Buena Vista.

the hosts were great and kept the sites and bathrooms clean

well cleared site, level for tents (which we did not use) . Very clean restrooms. Access to all kinds of stuff. Good weather. Need to adjut your expectations cooking at high altitude but it worked. Would stay again. Jut wish could park additional car at site.

Nicely spaced sites situated in tree cover and near an audible creek. Bathrooms are clean.

Beautiful campground for smaller RVs in general. It would help if Forest Service would fix the broken pumps as only one works. Near hiking trails, and short drive to fishing.

Sites provide plenty of space. Many aren't perfectly level which could be an issue for tent camping. The bathrooms were clean and well-maintained. When I was there the hose bib was out of service and the only other one was a manual pump a good walk away so doing dishes was tricky. The highlights were the robin songs (though they did get started at about 4am) and the three moose that came through in the morning.

Space 26 relatively secluded with easy access to bathroom. It was also nice and level for my VW Vanagon.

This has been one of my favorites for years but Forest Service is kind of letting it go. Terrible roadway. Water is undrinkable and pump barely works. Bear bins are just randomly placed on a few sites. More suitable for smaller RVs and tents as many of the sites are barely large enough for an RV and tow vehicle. Hosts seemed nice.
