When I first started going to this campground, I could fill my water tank onsite, then they changed the adapter so you could only fill jugs, now they have them completely taped off. luckily I a little water with me until I could get water in Frisco. The bathrooms aren't as clean as they used to be, but not horrible. I also wish there would be a notification that Swan Mountain Rd to Frisco is closed. Super annoying when I picked this location due to proximity to Breckenridge. Overall still a nice little campground. I wouldn't say it's great anymore.

There was no water in the campground and Swan Mt Rd was closed making it necessary for us to drive all around the reservoir to get water.
The caretakers/managers of the campground only did minimal cleaning of the vault toilets. The floor was not washed in the 6 days we were there. It ran out of toilet paper and for a day we had paper towels. The only time we saw the campground host was standing around at their campsite eating and socializing with other "caretaker/managers". This was our 5th visit. The first 2 were great, the last 3 have been progressively more disappointing. We will likely not be back.

Small, clean, and quiet campground close to trails, the lake, and modern conveniences.

We consider Lowry to be a primitive campground. No water. No bathhouse. Only pit toilets. On the other hand, I enjoyed my stay. I used to camp in tents in primitive areas so Lowry is an upgrade from that. The electric worked fine but I think it is overpriced. I have stayed in Lowry on two different trips so obviously I think it is okay. I will return some day if it fits my trip

My site (and some of the others) was very unlevel with a very uneven surface. Either one alone is problematic. Together even worse. Luckily I was able to overcome.
Bathroom went days without being cleaned.

Nice campground, nicely spaced out sites. No water, but they were electric sites. Vault toilets. Can't complain, we had a nice 3 days here.

Beautiful! Loved this campsite. This site was extremely close to the neighbor. Water wasn’t available and the main road was closed so had to drive 20 minutes around to get it.

we really like the beauty and quiet of Lowry. We will hope to stay there again next year.
