Available Nov 13–15 · 2 nights3 sites open for every nightA forested campground near trout fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.
The campground is part of the larger Arapaho National Recreation Area, so boating, sailing, swimming and a strong trout fishery (kokanee salmon plus rainbow, brown, mackinaw and cutthroat trout) are focal points; National Fishing Week takes place the first week of June. Trails for day hikes and horseback rides including access to the East Shore Trail (part of the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail), Roaring Fork and Monarch Lake trails begin nearby, and amenities of the region support a wide range of activities from wildlife viewing and picnicking to winter sports and auto touring.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.
Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (31,812 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
