Good if empty - $10 for FCFS

Sites are real tight. Like less than 5 feet apart. I lucked out and there we only 3 campers during my stay. So we had our space.

You’re right on the water which provides some nice white noise.

Bugs werent as bad as most of the Colorado sites I’ve been to.

Dry toilet close by.

Small and a little crowded, but has charm

We planned to camp here two nights but only stayed one. The is a very small campground and the spaces are pretty close together, too close for our liking. It is nice to be close to the river but you have a hard time escaping you neighbors view. We did luck out and get the only site that was outside the circle drive and also on the river.

The main road is right next to campground and there seem to be more traffic than expected. 

The drive down the canyon was exceptional.
