What Guests Are Saying
Dumont Campground is praised for its stunning scenery, excellent hiking, and proximity to Dumont Lake, making it ideal for outdoor activities like paddleboarding and biking. The campground is clean, well-maintained, and offers large, private sites, although some are not level and may require leveling blocks. While there are challenges such as a lack of drinking water and significant mosquito presence, the overall atmosphere and beautiful wildflowers contribute to a positive camping experience.

The campground is beautiful and well-maintained. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that the wells were not working when we went.

Campground was very dusty and mosquito infested, so it took away from the enjoyment of its use. Also, there is no water available. however the wild flowers were very good and there is convenient access to a nice hiking trail and to Dumont Lake.

Dumont lake is incredible. Visited there once on a day trip and now returned for a 4-night camping trip. Would highly recommend this site to anyone looking for a quiet get away with family, friends, or even solo! The water spiggots were not were working and we were notified in advance (way to go Recreation.gov) so we came with plenty of water. Tremendous amount of muskitos, but that can't be changed by the host! :) Please visit here but don't tell too many people!

Beautiful location but lots of mosquitoes at the end of June. Would have rated 4 stars due to the condition of the roads and sites. They could use some grading and leveling. I knocked the rating down to 3 stars because of issues. We arrived on opening day to day to discover there was no water. The one hand pump had not been working for 4 years and the other broke the previous year. There was no warning about this. Nearest water was Steamboat Springs (~24 miles). We received an alert about the water 3 days after we arrived. Second issue was the outhouses. Although they did check toilet paper supplies, the outhouses were not cleaned during our 4-night stay. Needless to say they were rather dirty by the time we left.

There were no camp hosts and the bathrooms ran out of toilet paper 3 days and they did not get cleaned the 6 days we were there. Also, the mosquitoes were terrible!! The wild flowers were amazing, there were tons of different varieties.

This campsite is amazing in so many ways. The sites are large and fairly private. The wildflowers were everywhere and it was quiet, which is exactly what we wanted. Do make sure to have extra toilet paper and your own firewood on hand, as there is no host on site as far was we could tell. The mosquitoes were atrocious our first day and night there, so bring bug spray. This campsite is also close to 10,000 feet in elevation, so it gets nice and cold at night. Steamboat is only 30 minute drive away. We will definitely be back!

Quiet campground. Lake within a short walk was beautiful. Saw an osprey catch a fish one morning. Some people fishing around the lake, some people mountain biking.
