Arapaho National Forest Byers Creek Campground

Arapaho National Forest manages Byers Creek Campground outside Fraser, Colorado, with basic amenities including drinking water and toilets. RVs up to 32 feet can access the site, though at least one visitor found the campground gated and closed on arrival, so confirming current status before the drive is worth the effort. Cell service has been noted as a consideration. The campground sits close to hiking and biking trails in the surrounding forest. Campers wanting a confirmed-open alternative can look at St. Louis Creek Campground nearby, or browse campgrounds near Winter Park for additional options in the area.

Closed to dispersed camping

Sign up saying no dispersed camping, pullouts are blocked. Forest service personnel and others work up along the road so probably not worth the risk.

Closed

Tried to visit over the weekend and there was a big gate up with a closed sign on it. Close to lots of hiking/biking trails. Will try again next year!
