The area is beautiful and usually peaceful however there were campers that allowed their children to ride their 4 wheelers around and around and around the campground. These children appeared to all be very young as well. Also some decided to repeatedly fire off their weapon close by. Gone are the days campers are respectful to others and the environment.

The camp ground is full of trees, right at the base of the mountains, very nice. Our spot, #5, was not ideal. It was basically a pull off right along side, parallel to the road and not very level. The camp sites are very dusty, they need gravel layed out all around the fire pit and picnic tables. Between the three campgrounds in that area, there’s not one dump station. Also, we noticed that some of the cattle guards in the road going to the campground are busted up. Be careful driving over them with your trailer.

Great campsite next to a beautiful river. Very rustic toilet situation and no campground host that we could find to take care of the noisy group campers.

Beautiful and spacious campsite. It’s well shaded and quiet. We had to use several blocks to level our trailer, but it was workable.

The rear of the campsite is boarded by a wire fence, probably to keep cattle from wandering into the campground.

I wish the camp host would have posted our reservation (our last name on the post) like they do at some campgrounds. When we arrived, someone was on our campsite thinking it was a first come first serve sight. We worked it out, but had to wait 30 min for them to move, and it could have been prevented had our reservation been posted.

We really enjoyed camping at the Iron Mine campground. Its was so beautiful. We stayed in site 5. It was not the ideal site being so close to the road but fairly level. We definitely plan on staying again.

Great little spot, easy to set, not too far from the restrooms, not to close either.

This was a fun campsite. There is a spigot with running water on the site which is convenient. Not much shade but plenty of aspen trees for hammocking. Stayed for a couple nights and got pretty cold at night needing at least three layers and pretty hot during the day (shorts and t-shirt). There’s a fun defas dude ranch saloon and restaurant close by to buy ice.
