Bogan Flats Campground Grp S

Very clean. Great hosts. Lovely area.

This is a very busy campground, with people & mosquitoes! We stayed in the first lot on the right from the entrance/exit. There were water faucets, but they are easy to miss. Bathrooms were overwhelmed. River was beautiful, but from our lot it was a very steep climb down to get to the rivers edge. Picnic table, fire pit & bear proof cabinet did well to provide for a comfortable evening. Yet surprisingly the best bbq in Colorado is down the road at restaurant in Marble.

Stayed 3 nights! This is such a beautiful campground, right in the crystal river, tons of shade, huge camp sites with privacy. Our site really could have fit several tents and a camper…. And there was a little trail off to the side to get down to the water. Loved having coffee on the creek in the AM and wine in the PM. Easy to get to Carbondale, Redstone, and Marble from there. No service but that’s not a bad thing! I would really give it 5 stars but when I say the bathrooms smelled up the entire campground …. I mean constantly….. we wernt even super close to the toilets but we could smell them morning noon and night …. It was frustrating. I was in a tent and I wanted to small mountain air …. But I didn’t. When we walked around the campground i could smell it everywhere for all 3 days… so it wasn’t just our site. Kind of a bummer

We stayed at site 34 and had booked for an RV and a trailer, apparently this is not allowed, even though recreation.gov let me book it with both equipment types listed. The camp hosts were very gracious about it and even found us a new spot from people who were leaving early (I think it helped we had kids, they took pity on us ;) The vault toilets were very clean and spacious. The sites were a bit close together, about half were exposed, no tree coverage, and the other half were provided ample shade with lots of trees. Site 34 ended up being perfect for us because it was right next to a little forest and the kids ran around in there a lot, which they loved.

My family and I camped here in 2020 and are returning in August 2021. Right on the Crystal River and just 15-ish miles south of Carbondale. Sites are huge and have shade all day. Kids loved it. Dad loved the fishing access.

Check in was smooth and the staff was awesome. The host was super helpful and she was like the nicest person I’ve ever met. The spot didn’t have cell reception which was nice. The river was beautiful and we watched it all day.

This campground is right off of the main road close to Redrock, CO. Tons of shade in almost every site with water faucets at every other site. The river is very close but was running shallow when I was there. Friendly host that was very helpful and gave lots of info.

bogan is a great campground along the crystal river in the redstone/marble area. it’s busy and not all sites have river access. camp hosts were pleasant and left us alone. there aren’t many choices in this area so it fills up quick. make reservations well in advance. a must see area is the town of marble- beaver lake, the waterfall, rent a utv and drive to the crystal mill and ghost town of crystal. the whole area around the crystal river is gorgeous and a hidden gem in colorado that has far less of the hype and people from the aspen-maroon bells area.

Reserved a few days ahead of time and had a great spot on the river. Incredible view and an absolutely psychedelic amount of stars. A variety of RVs, trailers, cars, and tents were camping and while sites weren't all that far apart they offered privacy and quiet. Someone was mistakenly in my spot and the host was very nice and helpful getting that remedied. Would definitely come back.

Great campground along the river. Some sites are shady, others are full sun which would be hot in the summer! Our site had a large area for hanging out, we could dip our toes in the water, and we had plenty for privacy from neighbors. No cell service. Water here has sulfur in it, so we just used what we had brought. Pit toilets were clean and camp hosts friendly.

We loved our stay at Bogan Flats! We stayed 2 nights and got in late the first night. Our campsite was right on the river! I was able to just grab my fly rod and fish the river from camp! The staff was amazing and very accommodating. Perfect location for a jumping off point to explore around Marble, CO! We also loved having bear boxes at the campsite for our food and other storage needs!

We'll definitely be back!

This review is not specifically for the group site but for the campground in general.

I’m almost tempted to let my photos do the talking here. That’s because no matter how many words I use, they aren’t enough to describe the true unaltered Colorado beauty.

The campground itself is pristine. It’s certainly remote but I loved it. The sites on the river side are perfect and the vault bathrooms are pristine. The sites are spaced out enough that it feels like true camping.

Now- the area!? Marble CO- about 6 miles up the road is the state’s best kept secret. I almost feel bad about letting it out. What a cool place! No stop lights, no gas stations and no grocery stores but amazing scenery and real Marble laying around that you would never get bored.

Again- I’ll let photos do the talking, but trust me and go!

We really enjoyed this campground. We were in site #10 which was great though not on the water. Next time we will try to book next to the river, which is beautiful! Caught a couple fish at the end of the campground as well. The host was very friendly and helpful. We will be back!

Bogan Flats is a great campground if you want to get away. Great for singles and families. Most campsites are large and allow for several families to one site. They were also semi private. The sites next to the river are the best. The sites closer to the entrance and on the river offer the best shade. My site #25 was next to the water and is an excellent spot for RVs, allowing you to drive through and park. There wasn’t a lot of shade though. At this altitude the heat wouldn’t be a big deal except the weekend we went the temps were in the 90’s. It’s about a 40 minutes drive to Aspen, 20 minutes to Carbondale (and phone connectivity), and 30 minutes to Glenwood Springs. Sleeping next to the roar or the river was wonderful. Each site offers a bear box, picnic table, and campfire rings. The vault toilets are kept clean. There is a faucet for drinking water and dishes. Its a fly fisherman’s heaven. I definitely will be back!

Nestled at the base of towering mountains along the Crystal River this campground is full of beautiful sites. Although our weekend here was very rainy we still enjoyed the majesty of the surroundings. Sites are well spaced so you feel secluded and private. Restrooms were very clean. Lots of hiking and fishing nearby. No cell service. Centrally located for exploring Marble and Redstone. Be sure to visit the BBQ restaurant in Marble. Yum!

My husband, two year old daughter, and I had a wonderful time at this campground. We were fortunate to get a site right on the river bank, but each camp site, whether on the river or not, had it's own unique appeal and we hope to be back to try them out. Bears are active in the area, so you do have to pack up all of your food in one of the provided cabinets; not a big deal, but something to be aware of. Like other reviewers have noted, the bathrooms are kept extremely clean and the camp hosts are wonderful. Absolutely recommend! There are lots of hummingbirds that aren't shy about visiting, so don't forget your feeder and nectar :)

Such a beautiful campsite that I hesitate to even review to as it will bring more attention. Make sure to explore the town of Marble. Situated along the Crystal River, I don't think I've ever enjoyed a campsite more! Just a stunning location. Although this site didn't have showers when I was there, I drove down the street to a nearby campsite (I believe in Redstone) & used their showers. Do be careful if the river seems to be rising as it could be dangerous to your site.

Lovely quite campground in the woods next to a river. We stayed on the side away from the river and I wish we had stayed on the river side, but it was still fantastic. No cell service, pit toilets, no showers. A little far away from civilization/stores, which is exactly what we were looking for. Site 10 setup is great, park near the picnic table and fire ring, pitch tent a little further up the slope under the trees. It did get coooold during early June, bring a good sleeping bag and warm clothes!!

This beautiful campground is located in the White River National Forest near Redstone. A quiet location, with nicely spaced sites and ridiculously clean bathrooms. Our site, #26, was right next to the roaring Crystal River. The views are spectacular and the entire area is gorfeous. .

Wow!! we were right on the Crystal River. Every site had ample trees and shade. The stars were beautiful. The location was convenient to 4x4 and hiking trails.

We fell in love with Bogan and come back every year! It’s quiet and each secluded enough. We’ve seen some wild turkeys and deer up there.

We booked in January for Memorial Day weekend. Recommended because they were packed this weekend. Site 2 was big enough for our pop up and 3 other tents. Each extra vehicle pays per night. The amount of shade trees in this area is phenomenal and the rushing river next to the sites is an added bonus. Fun to go check out Beaver Lake in Marble and eat at Slow Groovin BBQ at least once. Camp hosts very nice, bathrooms very clean. We are locals so we look forward to enjoying this campground several times a summer, hopefully!!

Borgan Flats has it all. Great shady tent sites plus a number of RV sites. The Crystal River flows through the campground and you can fish right from many of the sites. Near by Marble has trails for Hiking, Biking, ATV and 4X4. Dont miss Slow Grovin' for some great BBQ!

reserve early during fall colors. also try and get a creekside spot. perfect location to visit Marvle and Crystal Mill

Beautiful view! We had space 21, right on the river - and it was wonderful. Pull through and easy walking distance to the restroom but not too close. We also want to reserve and stay in spaces 27 & 28 if possible sometime this summer. Very clean campground with great hosts!
