First time here. Great area, in walking distance of everything. You can see right out on the lake, and there is a creek down the hill. Right by the bathrooms . A little hilly for a tent but we made due. Several trees for shade. Everyone was super friendly.

We were on Site#2, full hookup.
We had the grandkids with us for 2 nights. I was very comfortable letting them ride bikes around the loop.
We had nice neighbors & the weather was good. The bathrooms were spotless & the showers were clean too.
Love love Boulder!

The grass was mowed but nothing weed eaten. Weeds behind my camper was probably a foot tall

We love Boulder. It is always so clean and well kept. Even though it was packed itβs always so quiet.
