About

Overview

The Timberline Campground, near Kenosha Pass, is about 7 miles southwest of the small town of Grant. The abundance of aspens at the site creates impressive fall scenery along the forested hillside. Wildlife in the area includes golden eagles, elk, mule deer, moose, chipmunks and porcupines.

Recreation

The Colorado Trail is located within one mile of the campground and offers abundant hiking, biking and horseback riding opportunities. The epic 471-mile trail stretches across Colorado from Denver to Durango. Visitors may also enjoy fishing in Hoosier Creek.

Facilities

No drinking water is available and the roads through the campground are dirt and gravel. Each loop has a parking spur, picnic table, campfire ring and grill. There are 2 vault toilets within the campground. Firewood may be purchased at the nearby Kenosha Pass Campground.

Natural Features

The family campsites are divided into two loops, that are separated by a rise. Both loops sit among a stand of aspen, spruce and lodgepole pines along Hoosier Creek. The campground sits at an altitude of 9,700 feet and features mild summer temperatures and cool nights.

Great shaded campsites close to Denver.

Camped September 24 - 27. First come first served sites. 31 sites, had the place to ourselves. Wild turkeys and Steller Jays. Well maintained. Some shooting in the distance. Very serene otherwise.

Good views and spaces

This campground is not far off the main road and is easy to access with any vehicle. I was there on a Saturday and it still had open spots, but was mostly full. The vault toilet was very clean. The hosts kept it well stocked with toilet paper and they checked in with groups daily. Really good views and hiking spots. Pretty much no cell service (occasionally a text would make it through) and good tent pads or spots to put tents and campers. Noticed a few people had trouble finding flat parking for RVs and vans. The mosquitos weren't bad at all, and the biting flies were manageable with bug spray. The traffic going in to Denver was visible in just a few spots, but out in the distance. Many sites or close together sites would be great for groups. Lots of shade and places for a hammock. 

 The down side is the road noise. Especially because this is close enough to the highway on a downgrade, so you can hear the trucks downshifting throughout the day and night. But with that in mind, I would go back. The location was convenient and we had a good time.
