Dispersed camping in Roosevelt National Forest, Manhattan Campground sits within the Red Feather Lakes area of northern Colorado, where beetle kill and old burn scars are visible across portions of the surrounding landscape. Drive-in access keeps it reachable without high-clearance gear. Campers exploring the area can also find campsites near Red Feather Lakes through the broader region. Pack water, as dispersed sites typically lack potable sources, and visit before late summer to avoid afternoon thunderstorms common at this elevation.
