Lake side campground

Very pretty campground within lake Pueblo state park. You need reservations before entering the campground, but you can do that online or at the visitors center easily. Spaces are spread out nicely and had fire pits and picnic tables. Beautiful views of the lake nearby and the mountains off in the distance

Really Spread Out

In a good way, it’s all very spread out, with your own picnic table and covering thing and fire pit, your set up for a really neat stay.

Our site didn’t have water or sewer, but had 50 amp, odd little spot to get into with a bigger rig.

40’+ 5th wheels, READ : 12’ clearance coming into the park WILL HIT YOUR AIR CONDITIONERS. Use the main road and block traffic, don’t go under the covering thing.

Game warden did have to move someone who was poaching in our spot, which was a 2 hour delay.

Neat park, killer views, friendly folks, supposedly great fishing, neat trails, some beaches, etc…

Can’t go wrong with LPSP

This is our second time visiting Lake Pueblo. After staying at Arkansas Point the first trip, we decided to check out the other side of the lake and reserved a spot in Yucca Flats. It is so peaceful here! Great views, and super quiet. One of the best parks in the Colorado State Park system.

Kettle Creek Campground

We stayed at the Kettle Creek Campground in the Northern Plains area of Pueblo Lake 8/27-8/29 2021. We found that this campground is all about knowing the spots. You can walk down to the water from many campsites but some you have to find your own path. We were in a very crowded swimming/boating area and ended up walking a bit to find a more secluded spot to hang out and get in the water.

The spots are well spaced and felt private enough. Bathrooms were a little far but not terrible. Bring your own form of shade as the shade provided is not great until the afternoon (depending on your spot)

Won’t Go Back Ever

There is nothing to do unless you have a boat. No swimming allowed & it was 90*. The 1 area that allowed swimming was closed. Playground was closed & the rubber ground had lots of holes. We had electric hookups only. Our reservation was for 2 nights & only stayed 1. It was miserable. We stayed at Prairie Ridge space248.

High plains camping-wind, wind and more wind

Nothing to write home about but it has electric. Decent spacing between sites but nothing between sites except sagebrush and dirt really equals zero separation.

Good for boaters

We had a fairly spacious site but beware back to back sites when booking. Some sites looked like a pull through that was split into two sites which is not great for privacy. Most campers had large RVs and came with their boats. This seems like a perfect camping spot for boaters since all the activities are on the lake but if you don't have a boat, you might want to consider another spot. We brought a kayak and it was not the best lake for kayaking as the water is rough from boaters who were frequently inconsiderate. The shoreline is very rocky and sharp so bring sturdy water shoes. The campsite is exceptionally windy so best not to pop-up a shade structure unless you want to watch it fly away.

Nice but could be better

Huge campground with multiple areas within. We were in Yucca Flats. Which was nice, but very open. Not much cover anywhere, maybe 1 tree or large bush per site? There is running water in the bathrooms, which is super great, and each individual bathroom has a shower, which is good and bad. No bathrooms when everyone is trying to shower, and not many hooks for your items or a place to keep things dry while you shower, and when you shower it's a button you push continuously apx every 30 seconds or the water stops. But nice that you don't have to pay for a shower, and that there is hot running water. Also no soap for handwashing at sinks, which was eghh? We had a great time even with the weather was all over the place. The access to the lakeside water can be a bit tricky. Look for small trails that lead down to the lake. Lots of cliff spots and drop offs. But the fishing was good, better when you get on the water via paddleboard or boat. Seemed to be very popular for Memorial Day Weekend!
