TravelerBasic clean NF camp site
Quiet, clean, well run. 24 USD per night. Fire pits and wood for sale. New toilets installed (not in use as of Aug 2023). Little path to overlook on Mt Sunshine.
ScoutVery accessible spot near telluride
Paved roads all the way to the camp. Sites were well maintained and spaced out well. Excellent views
GuideNice little CG close to Telluride
Small campground, sites not far off the road, but minimal road noise and worth it for the convenience to Telluride and the great views. Porta potties reasonably clean, garbage available. Enjoyed watching sunset with other campers both nights we were there. Fall colors gorgeous!
