    White River National Forest Heaton Bay Campground

    Good and Bad

    Pros: This campground has direct access to Dillon Reservoir which is great! Several of the campsites back to inlets of the reservoir and people were dropping in their kayaks, paddle boards, etc. The reservoir is no body contact, so there is no swimming allowed. We were able to follow deer trails throughout the grounds to access the water and do some fishing. It is easily accessible from the highway and right outside Frisco, so if you forget anything or need Starbucks it is just minutes away.

    Cons: It is just minutes from Frisco, and I70 which makes it a noisy campground all day and night from vehicle noise. The sites are over used so they are extremely dusty. Plan on leaving covered in dirt head to toe especially if you have a tent. There are no tent pads so there is flexibilty on the size of tents. Our 10'x16' tent fit no problem. The sites on the inside of the loop are backed up very closely to each other. Our neighbors tent ended up about 15 ft from ours.

    Site E64: Too close to neighbors to the back. Descent space between side to side neighbors. No shade over fire ring/picnic table area. There is shade around to set up chairs or tent in a shady spot. The bathrooms are pretty far away if you take the road, there was a deer trail between the sites behind leading straight to the bathroom if you feel inclined. You park up higher and have to descend 4 steps to enter the site.

    White River National Forest Heaton Bay Campground

    Great Campground

    This is a well maintained campground. There is water available on every loop. There is electricity and water available at each site on loop A. The driveways and streets are paved. There are walking and bike riding trails everywhere. The town of Frisco is under a 10 minute drive with great grocery stores. Most sites have a fire ring and picnic tables along with bear proff storage containers. Heaton Bay is quiet and lovely. Firewood is for sale at the local grocery stores. There is really something for everyone. We will definitely return when back in this part of the country. Have fun and safe travels.

    Heaton Bay

    Well maintained campsite with moderate privacy. It is a walk on site but parking is right by the site so not far to haul stuff at all. There are trees all around the site but there is an opening/walkway to the neighboring campsite so not 100% private No one on the other side of site so there is an opening in trees that makes for a perfect hammock/ hang out spot which also provides more shade & privacy.

    Bear locker, fire pit and picnic table. Bathrooms nice & well maintained. Close to stores and restaurants in case you need anything. Right on lake Dillon so paddle boarding and trials close by too.

    Castle Mountain Recreation Area at Wellington Lake

    Private but Crowded

    Beautiful lakeside camping just outside of Denver. Campsites are a bit close together, but great for groups! No hookups here but you have bathroom facilities and a visitor center where you can buy firewood. Campfires allowed in the fire pits. If you have an RV beware quiet hours from 10pm to 8am, no generators allowed. Lake is perfect for paddleboarding, kayaking and fishing and you will most likely have phone service if you are with AT&T or Verizon. Many day use areas, however vehicles and individuals are charged. For campers, if you bring more than one vehicle you will be charged daily for any additional ones. No drinking water is available, you must bring your own. Dirt roads to the lake are rough and narrow. Close to Deckers for incidentals. Intersects with the Colorado trail for hiking and biking and close to the Colorado River for tubing!

    Arapaho Valley Ranch

    We love Arapaho Valley Ranch!

    There are community fire pits, stocked trout pond, access to the river, acres of woodland, and Colorado’s smallest bar! We love the vibe at AVR and the owners are amazing. Occassionally you can catch live music and there are several historic buildings they are restoring. We have a few friends that don’t camp which is okay because they also offering glamping, tipis, cabins, and a lodge. Trust me... one stay and you’ll be booking another one soon after!

    Arrowhead Point Resort

    Great campground!

    This campground is right off the road and easy to find. They had RV sites in the front of the camp and tent sites up the road. We had showers and laundry, general store and wood for sale. Our site was very nice with lots of room. We had a picnic table and a fire pit in the site. There were a few portable bathrooms that were super clean available for night time runs.

    Great views of the mountains!

    Castle Mountain Recreation Area at Wellington Lake

    Good Campground for Social Distancing

    Currently they don't have day-use open, so there's plenty of space at the lake to set-up and spend the day playing with the kids. We stayed in a mountain site (not lake-front) and the kids loved climbing the rocks and exploring the mountain. Really friendly staff. Quiet hours are not well kept and that would be my only complaint. No motors allowed on lake. Great for paddleboarding (rentals available), kayaking, canoeing & kid's floats.

    Red Mountain RV Park

    RV camping in Kremmling

    In Kremmling, the Red Mountain Lodge is a large RV campground with some cabins and motel rooms. It was a bit confusing trying to navigate the access roads in the campground as it was extremely large. However it had several amenities including a pool, free showers (that campers from outside of town can come use for a small fee), full hook-ups, access to the many off highway trails heading out of town (including trails that start in the campground), access to the Silverton Railroad Station (a few blocks away), jeep rentals, hot tub, rec center, laundry, and a playground. There is a SMALL tent area that is really just a grassy lawn between two of the rental units. The rental units are older and in need of some sprucing up (the paint on the exterior was peeling in large swaths). A short walk down the road takes you to some good restaurants as well as a microbrewery. Across the street is the grocery store/general store/post office, and a gas station is just down the road.

    Tiger Run RV Resort

    Full Service Glamping close to Breck

    Let's be clear - this is not camping. This is renting a driveway with access to power, water, sewer, internet, and cable. It is EXPENSIVE. It's also the only place near Breckenridge that offers all of these amenities.

    The clubhouse offers a heated pool and hot tub, arcade, business center, locker rooms, laundry ($2 per wash / $1.75 to dry), and owners lounge. There are tennis/pickleball courts and a community fire pit in the center of the resort that hosted movie night during our stay.

    No complaints about this place other than the fact that no one answered the phone at the office during our stay. The good news is that they email the gate code and wifi password ahead of time, so we were able to find our way to the site on our own.


Guide to Frisco

Cabin camping options near Frisco, Colorado range from basic to luxury accommodations at elevations between 8,000-10,000 feet. Most cabins in this region require advance reservations at least 3-6 months ahead during peak summer season (June-August). Winter temperatures often drop below 10°F at night, making proper insulation a critical consideration for off-season cabin stays.

What to do

Fishing at Dillon Reservoir: White River National Forest Heaton Bay Campground provides direct lake access. "Heaton Bay Campground, located near Dillon Reservoir in Colorado, offers a stunning lakeside camping experience with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. One of the biggest highlights of Heaton Bay is its proximity to Dillon Reservoir, where you can enjoy kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing," notes Paulina B.

Winter sports access: Tiger Run RV Resort offers year-round accommodations near major ski areas. "Breckenridge Colorados premier all season resort. Full service RV sites or mountain chalets (cabins) await you near Breckenridge Ski Resort, Copper Mountain, Keystone, A-Basin and Vail," explains Pepper I. Many cabin rentals in this area remain open through winter, providing access to ski resorts within 15-30 minutes.

Mountain biking trails: Multiple trail networks surround Frisco cabin sites, particularly at Golden Gate Canyon State Park. "Golden Gate Canyon SP is absolutely gorgeous! We loved the experience at the park, the trails are great and the views are wonderful. The drive up can be a bit breathtaking, but it can be done!" shares Minette and Ron G. The park offers over 35 miles of multi-use trails suitable for various skill levels.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Reverend's Ridge Campground receives high marks for maintenance. "Campground is very clean. Loop E (electric hookups) is very spacious and well laid out. Every campsite is a pull thru allowing you situate anywhere along the paved area to best suit your needs. Mostly level, fire rings, and very large metal picnic tables. Enormous amount of room," reports Dennis G.

Proximity to towns: Sugar Loafin' RV/Campground & Cabins offers convenience to nearby services. "Very convenient to trails. The kids play area needed attention. The restrooms were very clean. Helpful staff lead us to our spot and helped us park," notes Sarah J. Most cabin sites near Frisco are within 5-15 minutes of grocery stores, restaurants, and other services.

Recreational amenities: On-site activities enhance the cabin camping experience. "Tucked up on the edge of the woods this little gem is only 3 miles from Leadville. The outer edge sites are far better for views and space but even the site in middle are spaced out enough to have table and fire pit in each spot. The little general store is sparse but has emergency stuff and folks are really nice," explains Kurt K.

What you should know

Seasonal water availability: Water access varies by season and location. At Heaton Bay, one camper noted: "You get a spot and that's it. There is no water to fill your tank unless you're a lucky one who got loop C. There also isn't a dump anywhere and of course no power (not unusual)."

Reservation requirements: Most cabin facilities require advance booking. "Last minute decision to car camp here but worth it. Easy access to lake from camp spot, walked our paddle boards to beach 20 yards from camp site and had great Mountain View's," reports Meleia O. about a fortunate last-minute stay at Heaton Bay.

Cell service limitations: Connectivity varies widely near Frisco. "Very quiet, not so private. Kind of tricky to get to big overall nice. Good, clean bathrooms Ruth showers," shares Chloe M. about Golden Gate Canyon State Park, where cell service is minimal to non-existent in many areas.

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Look for cabins with child-friendly amenities. "This campground was tiny and a little cramped but was very clean and had running showers that was a plus. It was surrounded by trees but they were small which didn't help block the wind. We would stay here again because the staff was very friendly and they had a nice little store and playground," notes Pam B.

Educational opportunities: Middlefork RV Resort offers unique activities for children. "We stayed here in August for 10 days or so and besides struggling at first with how to get into the actual campground (there is a small road off the parking lot for the stores there that leads down into it) we absolutely loved it!! We got to do a little fishing on the stream fed trout pond, but most of all got to take in the South Park region which was great," shares Todd W.

Wasp prevention: Pack insect mitigation for summer stays. "We camped at E70 and there was a trail right to the lake. It was beautiful! It was a little noisy from the highway but we were far enough away that it was really white noise. There were a lot of wasps, so I recommend bringing a wasp catcher for your site," advises Sarah G.

Tips from RVers

Year-round options: Denver West-Central City KOA provides cabin options with RV amenities. "Yes Mountain High!! 8100' high. 7 miles off I-70 at Idaho Springs. 25 miles into outskirts of Denver. Don't worry they have oxygen! Not kidding!! Nice campground, friend staff, laundry, fun little gift shop with some food stuffs, beer and liquor," explains shari.

Leveling requirements: Bring stabilization equipment for cabin stays. "The campground is in a beautiful area near Golden. There are plenty of hiking trails in the park some easy some difficult. Make sure you leave out prepared. The sites are not very level so be prepared to use your blocks. When we where there, there were bear in the campground," warns Rich M.

Elevation considerations: High altitude affects camping equipment and health. "This KOA campground was impressive to me. My bf and I arrived too late to use the hot tub but the showers were clean and spacious. The campground offered pizza and wing delivery! They also offered an all you can eat pancake breakfast for $3 in the morning," shares Lexi A.
