My trailer is 27 feet long. I drive an F 250 and I could not fit into site 23. I tried for about 45 minutes to fit into the camp site. I had to almost jackknife my rig from the road and when I would try to swing my truck out to straighten the truck with the trailer I would run over large decorative rocks and boulders and also had to deal with a steep incline on the truck side. I was worried that I would damage my truck and trailer. I finally gave up and looked for the host but she was nowhere on site. This was terribly frustrating but fortunately we found a site in Central City to camp for the next few days. I did notice that most of the trailers in this part were of the smaller variety and would suggest that anything over about 18 feet would have trouble with this campground. I have never heard from the campground about a refund and I can't find a phone number to discuss my issue with anyone. We are extremely disappointed with this campground as we were looking forward to camping here. Beware!

The view from the campground toward the mountains is lovely! We enjoyed being in a small campground separate from the huge ones next to Dillon Reservoir. We could walk a short distance down the road for a good view of the reservoir. By walking a short distance up the ridge we could look down on the whole Keystone area, which was lovely and green -- but we were happy to be away from all that development. We especially enjoyed the Dillon Nature Preserve.
There are lots of activities, stores and restaurants in the area, although we usually avoid such things.

I often stay at Lowry campground because it is small, has electric hook-ups and is centrally located to Summit County activities. This visit there was limited water which was an inconvenience to many campers who came expecting to be able to fill up their tanks.
