About Windy Point Group (CO)

Windy Point is located near Dillon Reservoir at an elevation of 9,000 feet in the White River National Forest. The site consists of a group camp and a group picnic shelter that can accommodate up to 100 people each. With views to Dillon Reservoir and several mountain ranges, Windy Point is ideal for larger groups seeking recreation and relaxation. Due to the pine beetle infestation and removal of hazard trees, there is little or no shade at Windy Point.

What Guests Are Saying

Overall, the experience was positive, with a history of pristine conditions at the site. However, during the recent visit, the bathrooms were found to be in unacceptable condition and unusable. This unexpected issue detracted from an otherwise enjoyable stay.

Everything was great except the bathrooms were unusable. I’ve been to the site many times and specifically checked the bathroom, they were usually pristine. For my personal rental on sept 6th and the whole weekend they were not cleaned and they were HORRIFIC. I don’t really understand why and there was nothing we could do to fix it so we just couldn’t use them.

We camped here with 10 kids for a birding trip. It's a fine campsite, but not the best I've been to. The vault toilets and site was very clean. The hosts were nice. The forest site does not have much shade at all near the picnic tables. There are also no bear boxes, which is astonishing since this is a group site for a lot of people who have a lot of food! Please put bear boxes here to store food. We had to jam our cars full of food which was not ideal for taking day hikes in the area with a group of kids. In addition, if you do not swing the gate shut, random people will drive through this campsite and use the vault toilets. We had to make sure the gate stayed shut (it doesn't lock).

Absolutely LOVED having our wedding here at windy point!! The weather was amazing (thankfully)! The only down side was we got rentals for our wedding and we had a man there getting very angry with everyone that was helping set up and refused to let them “hide” the picnic tables and so we had to have them
On the corner of the gazebo. Which definitely wasn’t aesthetically appealing for our vision. We were quite confused because we have talked too and seen others have their wedding there and they were able to hide the picnic tables and didn’t have a man yelling at everyone.

I love this place. We got lucky on timing and were able to have a fire in the fire ring before the Stage 2 fire ban. It lives up to its name… usually windy at some point. So much room for tent camping up on the hill. Next time, if we can swing it, we’ll rent out the group spot adjacent to it because they kept driving through our camp. It wasn’t a big deal, and I’m pretty sure at least one of our friends accidentally drove through their camp. The bathrooms were as clean as they get, and it was nice to have the bear proof dumpsters on site.
