Fishing draws most visitors to Hell Hole Campground, which sits in a forested section of Eldorado National Forest near a lake that provides the primary on-site recreation. The campground runs from May through November and includes drinking water and toilets. No pets are allowed. Anglers and campers who don't need hookups or full facilities will find this a functional base, with Big Meadows Campground just 0.6 miles northwest for those wanting a nearby alternative.
