We had a brief visit from a relative during the evening of our stay. The host required him to pay $7.00 for this. It may be the rules, but it was a ridiculous requirement.

Decent primitive sites. Would have liked parking to be a bit closer to the site, and water too. Very sunny. Fun to walk over to the reservoir and play with stones. Awesome that the bike path goes right through the campground!

Beautiful camp ground with views of the Rockies. We appreciated all the trees and natural surroundings. We had a quick walk to the lake which is very nice! We will camp here again.
