Campground host was relatively inattentive and a number of camping sites are difficult to back a bumper pull into. Upon arrival to the campground the host was not on site and there were no instructions for hook up/arrival procedures, which led to confusion about where fresh water was available. According to the recreation.gov website there were no water hookups at my site (site 5), however there was supposed to be potable water on site to fill my trailers fresh water tank. At the entrance to the campground, next to the host trailer there were two water hook ups and with no one available to provide me direction I began to hook up to one of these and fill my fresh water tank. Just before I began someone (presumably the wife of the host) yelled at me out the window of the host trailer that I couldn’t fill my water tank there. When I asked her where I could she told me to call her husband (the host). We found his number on the door to the trailer who informed us vaguely there were “water hookups throughout the site”. Once we found another water spout we ended up using it with no issues. Then we attempted to back into our site which was angled about 90 degrees off one way traffic flow of the site which made it near impossible to back our trailer in (30 ft bumper pull). We ended up going the opposite direction of the traffic flow to be able to actually back the trailer in. During this process the campground host showed up and when we asked him what the best method was to get into the site he just shrugged his shoulders. Overall the campground hosts are relatively inattentive/rude and the campsite, at least site 5 and the one next to mine (watched a guy struggle for 45 minutes to back in at an extreme angle), is portly laid out. Once you’re in and set thought it’s great views and perfectly in between Breckenridge and Keystone.

I think we got the best camping site there. It was quiet but rained a lot. The toilets were spotless. No showers here.

The tent sites are very close together and there is almost no shade. The view is okay but nothing spectacular. The location is very close to Dillon and Silverthorne with lots of good hiking trails nearby and of course the lake.
The bathrooms are very clean and the host, Kurt, is fantastic. Fantastic.

- Campers must occupy the site the first night at a campsite. This prevents booking the site for Fri-Sun and showing up on Saturday.

- It is imperative that you are clear from the site on your check out day so the host can come prepare the site for the next event. Please don't be the group that makes the incoming group have to wait.
