We stayed at Boulder Campground for about a week. The campground is very well taken care of. If you had any questions the campground host and gate attendant were very helpful. The shower house and restrooms were kept very nice and clean. Their is laundry facility onsite. If you have children you can go to Coles Creek Campground to go swimming. I would definitely return again to go camping.

Beautiful sunsets over the lake. Has some really great sites, some pretty close to neighbors. Bathhouse air-conditioned, can't regulate showers, run hot for summer temps. Restrooms and bathhouse kept clean. Can get very crowded on summer weekends.

Super nice campground. There are a couple of spots that have no shade, which we had one and it was so so hot. However, there a so many nice spots and great views of the lake.

Nice campground with nice folks running it. Always seems to be a nice breeze at Boulder even on hot days. Some of the campsites could use upgrading but most are well maintained. Facilities are always clean.
