Favorite Campground on the Pass

I absolutely love this campground. There are two loops on either side of the main road and I recommend the one by the creek. There are 4 sites that are down by the creek in the trees that are walk-in only but have the most space between them and are right on the creek. They are my favorite spots on site.

There are pit toilets available that are well maintained and there is water access. There is also a dumpster for trash. This site is better for large rigs too. There are multiple sites where you can easily back right in.

It is really quiet at night and the creek gives off a beautiful white noise for those that are close to it. This campground is very busy during the weekends in Colorado but you can most likely find a spot any day during the week.

This area is an absolutely gorgeous forest setting and is totally what you might have imagined for a Colorado camping experience. Easy access to the Bierstadt trail if you are a 14er hiker and a really fun road bike route up and down Guanella Pass. You are also less than 20 mins from Georgetown so it is also a good spot for you to have a basecamp.
