About Heaton Bay

Heaton Bay Campground is situated at an elevation of 9 ft 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.

Well situated near the water of Lake Dillon, just west of the dam. Well maintained. The camp host staff were friendly and kept the pit toilet bathrooms well stocked and clean. The grounds were well maintained. Close access to the paved bikepath that goes around Lake Dilllon and provides access to bike paths to Breckenridge, Frisco and Copper Mountain. Many activites are available including boating,l paddleboarding, biking, hiking. If you are going to fill your RV with water, their is a threaded hose hookup on Loop B. There are no showers, but you can shower at the nearby Silverthorne Recreational Center for $5.00. It is within a 15 minute drive.

The campsite is special - it’s peaceful, surrounded by Colorado’s mountains, yet easy to reach from Denver

I stayed for 3 days and hiked in the area. Too many good hikes and too few days. The campsites are large and private. City of Frisco water conveniently located in each loop. Vault bathrooms were very clean. Camp host was friendly and helpful. Campground is right off I70 but vehicle noise was minimal. I camp in a camper van and was in site D52 a tenting loop. D52 has a beautiful view of the reservoir and mountains.
