"The location shown looks like it’s super far out but you can find campgrounds pretty close to the entrance(10 minutes from parking lot)."
"There are a few camping spots close to the entrance that are accessible by smaller vehicles, they are decently spaced out. We have T-Mobile and had a solid 2 bars and LTE at campsite M-10."
"This is the most beautiful RV Camp in Colorado. We come every year."
"The area is in walking distance of the Gunnison River and there is a nice hiking trail on the south side of the river heading west."
"Great location for area activities, nice pretty green grass for dogs, bathroom and showers are clean but definitely need an over haul."
"The CG is not in the best location right next to the municipal airport but makes up for it with lush green grass throughout and an open feel. "
$26 - $250 / night
"Slept right next to the creek. Trailheads walking distance away."
"Lottis Creek is peaceful and beautiful, and just a great place to relax and enjoy the Colorado air. We stayed here over the weekend and really enjoyed the hosts on Baldy loop."
"Only downside was that it was very close to the road but that’s not enough for me to take down a star!"
"Yes it's near the highway, but I don't think I ever even noticed that. The noise is not bad. Most of the noise comes from the river, which is relaxing."
"(Rosy campground is between the highway and river so it's also a quieter option.) Creekside sites are sloped but with some flat tent spots at the creek."
"stayed here over the 3rd and 4th of July. big shady site, plenty of trees for hammocks and flat spots for tents. nice little river with trail running along the edge of the campground. also start of doctor"
$28 - $58 / night
"It does have a highway next to it so there is road noise. The camp sites are fairly secluded from each other. There is water available but no electricity."
"Awesome cliffs to view right outside our door. Our site #4 also had two large tent pads. There is a paved path through most of the campground along and up from the river's edge."
$70 / night
"Climbing routes all around and Doctor Park is right there! Can’t beat it!"
"We also went boating on Taylor lake."
$24 - $34 / night
"You are in close proximity to other campers as is usual in a BLM or NFS campground. Not an issue really. There is a rodent issue at the camp."
"Our campsite was number 7 (on a clearing surrounded by a creek with a few other campsites). Campsites are close in proximity, but we had awesome campers around us who we befriended."
$20 - $60 / night
"One of my favorite spots to camp in Colorado so far."
"other than the Neighbors being so close by it was amazing. we had really close water access.we stayed at #11 so cool I think it had the best amount of tree shade available and cuz we were so close to the"
ScoutThis campground has amazing views, is very quiet and has electrified spots. A perk is that there is great Verizon coverage, so if you are working remotely you have a great signal. Another good sign is that there are a lot of state employees that choose this campground as their home for the season.
RangerStopped here for a night while passing through. Yes it's multiple big open parking lots, but there is a lake with shore access, a boat launch, and clean facilities. We stayed in the lower loop site 19 and no one else was here on the lower loop there were several RVs near the boat launch (middle area sites 20-25) and a couple in the upper loop. Restrooms are available at each loop. Upper loop appeared to be fairly level, the lower loop has a bit of slope to it, I had to raise the downhill side about 6 inches.
There are two handicap accessbile sites in the lower loop site 15 and site 3. There are 2 EV charging stations just before the lower loop each with two outlets (Rivian and Charge Point +). The restrooms were clean on the lower loop there are no showers in this location and I didn't check the other two restrooms to see if there are showers or not.
Each site has a nice picnic table and a fire pit with grill.
TravelerThird trip to OBJ. Pro: nice beaches to wade, play with the dog, have a bevy; great hiking; compact, but not on top of each other; shady, and cooler due to the river; Tent sites 21-26 are great - shaded, soft ground, near the toities. Cons: Tent sites 28-30 are awful (exposure to elements, rocky, dusty, bugs).
GuideThis is by far the best campground we stayed at on our month-long tour of Rocky Mountains. Site was clean, freshly raked, bathrooms were super clean, and there was plenty of fishing, hiking, and space between sites. Fully recommend if you can snatch up a spot.
ScoutNice place to camp. Lots of OHVS use campground. Walking distance to town of Pitkin. Definitely will be back. No phone service unless you have satellite service
GuideExcellent access if you're a river runner. RV and can sites are out in the open so they can be hot during the day. Walk-in sites have shady trees and are next to the river.
GuideWe enjoyed our midweek stay here. The creek flowing adjacent the campground is a plus. Site 17 was spacious and overlooked the creek. One vault toilet is located toward the east end of the CG. Expect hiking (popular 14ers nearby) and UTV traffic, especially on weekends. Kind of pricey at $26/night. And there is good dispersed camping along the road leading to this CG.
GuideWe dispersed camped here. If you exit off of 82 then turn onto 24, that will take you up to Lakeview campground which is a pay for site. Keep going past that campground and up there you can pull off many different places to camp. Very amazing views with trails nearby. You will be up by Mt Elbert forebay lake looking out over Twin Lakes. WE LOVED IT. No one bothered us, it was like we were in our own world up there. No trash cans, no toilets, no nothing. Bring your own gear/power. There are some motorcycle riders in the area usually but it's not to bad. They are just going out on the trails. Ppl in the distance with gas generators didn't leave them making noice all night either. Solar is the way!!! Pack it in, pack it out, so we can keep these gems. Big rigs will drag in some spots and would be dangerous to enter with. Most of the big rigs camped at the very top hill if you can get up the steep entrance.
GuideThis place was pretty good. There's enough space for a camper/RV. It's a little hike up to the lake, and the area just below the site (meadow and aspens around a stream) was very pretty.
