Elk Creek Campground
Reviewed Aug. 20, 2024

Easy Access

Stayed in the loop D Back-In section. It has water and electric. The bathrooms are clean and sanitary. No showers. Just sinks and toilets. You are in close proximity to other campers as is usual in a BLM or NFS campground. Not an issue really. There is a rodent issue at the camp. Use cotton balls soaked in mint oil under the hood of vehicles to deter from wires being chewed. Do not feed or leave food out. I had several chipmunks crawl up on me sitting in my camp chair. The night sky is awesome. Several hiking trails near to enjoy as well as off road exploring in the surrounding National Forest. Fly fishing in the Gunnison as well as great fishing and swimming in Blue Mesa Reservoir is a short walk or drive. The Village of Gunnison is 30 minutes away, Crested Butte an hour.
