Beautiful place to wake up

My time here was brief as I arrived just before dark and packed up fairly early, but overall it seemed like a pretty decent campground. I woke up to a lovely view and light snowfall. It was quite a peaceful place to stay. 

The campground: I stayed in the off-season, so only B-loop was open. While the loop wasn't full, there were plenty of other campers. My campsite looked out towards the valley and evergreen covered mountains. My site had a slightly elevated tent pad, a picnic table, and a fire pit with a grate. The campground was very clean, including the vault toilets, which were still open.

The area: This campground is only about ten minutes away from the Beaver Meadows Visitor's Center at the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. It's a great location for exploring the eastern side of RMNP. After I packed up in the morning, I took the road up to Bear Lake where the snow was a lot heavier. If you want to leave the Park for awhile, Estes Park is only about a twenty minute drive and has plenty of restaurants and shops. 

Booking: It was the off-season, so first come, first served. I stopped at the entrance to the campground put my payment in an envelope and into the drop box.

Cell Service: Verizon was spotty.
