Summary
A modest fee is required (typically $20/night), and amenities include vault toilets, picnic tables, fire rings, and RV access (no hookups or potable water). Nestled in a peaceful, forested valley at 9,300 feet, the campground offers a rustic, quiet experience amid spruce and aspen. Nearby trails like Homestake Trail offer hiking and fishing opportunities. The best time to visit is late June through September when snow has melted and access roads are open. No permits required unless for specific activities.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
