Always a great time at Boulder. Been going there for about 23 years now. Love it and look forward to it every year!

It was an impossibly windy situation with no barrier off the lake. Beautiful in the AM but brutal in the PM. We lost our screen tent to the wind. Our fault it wasn’t tied down, but we didn’t know this spot was a wind tunnel til it was too late. Very sunny in the evening as the sun sets over the lake and bears down in the site. It’s a buddy site so we reserved so we could camp with the grandkids. It wasn’t the dream camping experience we had hoped for.

I made my reservation online and paid the total that I was charged. When I arrived at the site I was told that I had not paid. I had to pay an additional day that was not computed by the website.

This is one of the Best Buddie Sites i have been to. This site allows both campers to park in a manner that allows the doors to open into the same common space. Compared to other buddy sites that makes the people staying in one of the campers walk around their camper to enjoy spending time with friends.

The Campground was very nice and very clean. Don;t be afraid to just drive around and explore as we did this and found beautiful areas to explore.
