Big Thomson Campground at Carter Lake
Reviewed Oct. 6, 2020

Fantastic Time

Went in early October. No shade at the site. We stayed in site T03. Setting up camp and deer walked through the campground. The following morning a flock of wild turkeys took a stroll through. We were on a hill right above the water, but it was an easy walk down to the water. Did a lot of fishing. The first night we couldn't keep all the poles in the water we kept catching. Caught and released everything, including lots of crayfish. Quiet area. Did some geocaching as well. Had a great time. Bathrooms were very clean. Only downside was the day use fee on top of the camping fee and having to go to the kiosk everyday for a new day use pass. Loved our spot, will visit again.
