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

The site we were in was too narrow. (C30) It took many tries for us to back our 35' - 5th wheel in and when we got it in and the slides out it was way too narrow. The picnic table etc was at the back of the trailer and we had trouble getting to it because there was a hill beside. We took note of some better for us sites and will reserve them next time.

The hosts were GREAT. Very friendly and helpful. Campground and facilities were very clean.

I have a suggestion: get a contract with a sewer/septic company to come to the campground to dump rv's. The dump in town was a challenge to get to because of construction and there was probably a new rv'er that took about 30 minutes to dump. They weren't smart enough to dump and fill at the same time so there was a big lineup.

the space I was in had a rickety, splintery, peeling wooden table. The seating bench was so bad I fear someone will likely take a fall from it one day.
most of the other tables were metal.

Love the bike trail, but older people do need to know that this campground is at 9,200 ' in elevation, so oxygen levels can be a bit low.

The camp is in a beautiful area. It is poorly run. Several people partied all night and nothing was done. Our last night, someone snuck in and stole our neighbor's site, running their generator at midnight. The host came by the next morning and the only thing he said about it was that he was sorry he couldn't let them stay longer. This is despite several signs staying that the campground was full that the person breezed past. Ugh.
