About Roubaix Lake

Roubaix Campground is tucked into a grove of Ponderosa pines along its namesake lake. With a popular swim beach and opportunities for non motorized boating and paddling, campsites are dispersed among four loops, and many offer lake views. At an elevation of 5,500 feet, this camp remains comfortable on hot summer days, and sites are spaced far enough apart to offer ample privacy. This popular camp makes a great base for exploring all the activities and attractions at the lake and in the surrounding area.

Number of accommodations: 29

We love this CG. It is much quieter than many nearby CGs. Loop D is especially peaceful and spacious. The host was always friendly and helpful and made our stay pleasant. The waterfront is small, sandy, shallow - perfect for young kids. The lake is small, so ok, but not exciting for kayaking or paddle boarding. The woods, open sky, coyotes in the distance, clean campsite, friendly campers, quiet lake, etc, make Roubaix the perfect CG experience.

Beautiful area and campsite. Sites are a comfortable distance between each other and have plenty of toilets in the area. Wished I had booked sooner to get a site on the lake, it’d be an experience well worth planning for. Only complaint is that it seemed like the camp ground was behind on trash pick up and the dumpsters were over flowing. Overall I’d highly recommend to anyone, especially to any boating and fishing enthusiasts.

We had hundreds of bees at our site. It was so bad we could not eat outside.

One of my favorite places I have camped ever! Peaceful, great location, private, and beautiful! Spent the night here after hiking in Custer State Park. Great place to unwind and relax!

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.

Site types & loops

  • Generators are allowed from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. at non-electric campsites.
