Ferron Reservoir

Love the location by the lake, has good views. The road is good all the way to the location from both mayfield and from ferron.

This is a beautiful place and I look forward to going up each year.

Nice campground, but fellow campers were noisy late into the night.

The location of this campground is remote and the land is shared access. That means livestock are allowed to graze. That being said, the livestock (which are sheep) are all over and inside the campground. They drop their poop all over the place and it smells awful and attracts flies. Complaining to the forrest service is worthless. They did nothing. The forrest service need to erect some fencing around the camp to keep the sheep out. This is the fourth year in a row. I am never going back.

We love Ferron! Our family has been camping there for years and the reservoir was actually more full this year. Was a lot of fun.

Although fire restrictions curtailed campfire gatherings our family still had a great time. A lot of time for family togetherness and fishing was good - our ten year old grandson caught an 18" trout which he cleaned to share with his father.
Some fun hikes including a group hike to Petty Peak for a fantastic view of the area were great.

Beautiful campground, hosts were very nice. Restrooms were pretty clean.

rest rooms were well maintained, and fresh water taps are readily available, also the fishing was great

I loved our camping trip to this gem of a reservoir and campground! Fishing was terrific, campsites are cozy and the hosts are great! The hosts are new to this campground this summer and they were very kind and friendly. All the facilities were very clean!

NOTE WHEN COMING FROM GUNNISON/MAYFIELD DIRECTION: Google Maps, as of this writing, will take you onto Forest Rd 0022 and then to Forrest Rd 0023 which, for autos, is a dead end since you would need an ATV to use Forest ATV 413 to continue the route. Instead, where Forest Rd 0023 splits off of Forest Rd 0022, take the left fork to stay on Forest Rd 0022. You will pass through Twin Lakes and come to 12 Mile Flat where a sign is posted, indicating Ferron Reservoir is to the left. Once you take that left, you will continue down into Ferron Reservoir.

love the views, my family loved how close we were to the water.
I did not give excellent due to the 1 hour dirt road we had to drive to get to our destination.
