What Guests Are Saying

Seedhouse Campground is praised for its excellent location near backcountry trails, clean facilities, and quiet atmosphere, making it a relaxing spot for campers. While some sites lack shade and there are occasional issues with wildlife, including bear activity and flies, many visitors enjoyed the privacy and space between campsites. The campground offers great access to fishing and hiking, though cell service is unavailable and some areas may be difficult to reach.

Great campground again, I remember it before the beetle kill and when it got cleared out. So much new growth and so many new trees. Seedhouse is our favorite campground. The camp hosts are super nice and informative, I like them.

This is a lovely campground with proximity to hikes in Mt. Zirkel Wilderness and the Continental Divide Trail. The sound of the Elk River lulled us to sleep each night. It was not full when we were there mid-week, but I imagine it fills up on weekends. The hosts were friendly and helpful.

Seedhouse is a pretty basic, but nice campground. The way I like them! Sites are a bit varied, so check the pictures before booking. Camp hosts very nice and friendly. So well-located near great trailheads...my go-to for Mt. Zirkel Wilderness!
