Campground ***
This campground is pretty much out in the middle of nowhere. The closest town is Lamar, which is 20 miles away. There is only rare cell phone signal, unless you drive just outside the park. Our myfi signal was off and on, and slow when it was on.
Our site was very large, with large common areas on 3 sides. The yard area was dirt and small gravel. outside the yard area was weeds and grass. They mowed the morning we arrived, and there was dead grass clippings everywhere. We had a problem with them being tracked inside by us and the dogs. We had a problem with a large ant bed in the center of the yard area. We had to use an xpen to surround it. We tried ant bait and spray, but they kept coming back.
This is an Electric Only campground, but there was a water spigot right next to our site.

Campground ***
Our site at this park had a really beautiful view of the lake, marina, and mountains, including Pikes Peak, but the picnic area was just dirt with a little small gravel. The picnic table had a curved metal sun guard, that shaded about 3/4 of the table in the afternoon. But, the yard area was mostly sunny in the afternoons even with the awning out. Also, the fire ring was in the center of the yard area, so we had to use one of our xpens to go around it. We used 6 pens to make the yard, and probably couldn't have used the 7th one anyway. The area outside the dirt/gravel area was weeds and stickers.
This is an electric only campground. There was a water spigot on the other side of the site next to us, so we were able to stretch a hose over to it to fill the fresh water tank.

We stayed in this same site 8/21/19 - 9/4/19. The only thing I want to add, is I don't remember the dirt in the yard area being as fine and loose 2 years ago. The dogs got filthy dirty very quickly and the inside of the coach was covered in dust. Elwood looked like PigPen from Charlie Brown. A cloud of dirt followed him around as he moved around in the yard.
------------------------------
This campground has nice wide spaces, but they are all curved pull-thrus, so it was a little hard to get situated, and it is just barely long enough for our rig with bike rack on the back, and our car parked sideways. We were able to use all 7 xpens. The patio area is mostly dirt with some gravel.
Like most parks in the cooler climates, there are not water hookups at each site. But, there is a water spigot at the site next to our site, and we were able to reach it with a hose to fill the fresh water tank.
This park is near the Rocky Mountain National Park, which is really beautiful.
