Summary
Fees are around $18/night. Expect basic amenities: vault toilets, picnic tables, fire rings, but no potable water, RV hookups, or trash service. Located in a serene, forested valley along the South Platte River, it’s ideal for tent campers and small RVs (under 22 feet). Visitors enjoy peaceful surroundings, trout fishing, and quick access to nearby trails like Lizard Rock and Brookside-McCurdy. The vibe is quiet and rustic, with beautiful aspen and pine scenery. Best visited late spring through fall for mild temps and accessible roads.

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
