About Heaton Bay

Heaton Bay Campground is situated at an elevation of 9,000 feet and centrally located for recreation and relaxation in the White River National Forest. There is little or no shade in the campground due to pine beetle infestation and the removal of hazard trees, but the sites offer open views to Dillon Reservoir and several mountain ranges.

Number of accommodations: 84

Garrett was the camp host and was the very best host we've experienced in campsites. We've camped for over 35 years, he was helpful, supportive, not "in your face" like the host last year and that is so appreciated. He was amazing

The tent-only campsites were spaced enough to retain a certain about of privacy, and they have great access to the water for things like paddleboarding.

The moonrise over the lake/reservoir was beautiful! And there were wildflowers in bloom (the tiniest lupine I've ever seen!). Though, you can hear the interstate from the campgrounds, if that matters to you.

In all, a pleasant experience and I'd stay there again.
