About Seedhouse Campground

Seedhouse Campground is a gateway to the Mount Zirkel Wilderness along the Elk River with plenty of opportunities for hiking, biking, horseback riding, camping, off highway vehicles, hunting, fishing, river rafting and more. At an elevation of 8,000 feet, Seedhouse Campground lies in the mountains of the Park Range near the Middle Fork of the Elk River. The Middle Fork of the Elk River is so close, campground visitors can hear its roar. Campers can access the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail via a connector trail nearby. There are 24 campsites, 15 of which may be reserved. Remaining sites are first-come, first-served. There are two hand pump water systems throughout the campground.

Number of accommodations: 18

Recreation.gov "double" booked us two camp sites and charged my card "double" for both. Did not realize this until the camp host pointed it out.

Campground is very quite. There is no cell service, no over the air tv, and no FM or AM radio. First time every camping that we could not get even a radio station. Most of the sites are fairly small, there are a couple of large ones that are well shaded. There are 2 water pumps for water that you must pump by hand. There are a few good hiking trails close by.

Not a ton of shade at this campground but still in a beautiful area! If you are looking for a quite camping trip go in the middle of the week, as we left on Thursday the campground was starting to pile up with large loud families

bear visited twice on Wednesday evening. overall very good campground. also even though stage two fire warnings were in effect, no postings other than stage one were posted. this resulted in a lot of folks having campfires in the campground...not good

The cabin-like out house is horrific. It should either be emptied out or closed, it smelled awful. Any outhouse with a "historical building" designation is likely to be questionable, I suppose. The other two toilets were acceptable, although the sign on the door stated that the USFS was cleaning "frequently" due to covid-19, and in the 2 nights I was there I don't think they were cleaned, judging from the ever-growing layer of dead flies on the floor. The campground is pleasant, but dusty, especially the sites nearer the road, and in this drought even worse. Very convenient to many hiking and biking trails, lovely scenery. I'd stay again, but try to get a site further from the road. It might help if they put some "slow" signs on the road leading to the campground, trucks pulling trailers full of OHVs race by very fast, bad for dust and dangerous for kids as well.

Seedhouse Campground is easily accessible by car via a gravel road. There is a lovely river behind the campground. It was lovely to hike around. The bathrooms were clean. It’s a really beautiful spot.

Lovely campground. Quiet in a beautiful area. One thing to note is that some of the campsites look like they are right on the river (which is true). We picked a specific campsite for that reason. However, there is about a 50- 100 foot drop to access this river. So if you want to easily access a river, you do have to walk across the road and leave the campground (which still isn't far at all - just something to know). This campground has access to a lot of great hikes and isn't far from a few lakes and Steamboat as well. You will probably want 4W/AW drive as the last few miles to drive to this campground are quite bumpy.
