“The camp ground is always well cared for. The bathroom is always cleaned. Very peaceful and quiet. ”

Michael H 5 · Oct 2025 · Recreation.gov

“There were so many dogs off leash, a lot of noise after quiet time, and not a ranger or camp host in sight to enforce the rules posted. It was a miserable experience trying to shoo strange dogs away from my camp site, and 2 sleepless nights thanks to noisy neighbors.”

Alyssa W 1 · Aug 2025 · Recreation.gov

“Make sure to bring leveling blocks, almost none of the sites are level. The bathrooms were very clean. The sites along the lake are large with good separation. Winds picked up every afternoon. Overall a good place to camp.”

How far ahead to book Willows Campground (Co)

For July weekends, book about 111 days ahead. Three in four July Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 42 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Arrival monthFri/Sat arrivals: half booked at leastA quarter at leastOther days: half booked at leastA quarter at least

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 (1,779 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.
