10. Lake Henry
Swink, Colorado8 Reviews•19 Photos•62 SavesThe smaller of the two sisters, Lake Henry offers campers an opportunity to play and camp at a site where the stars are actually visible to the naked eye. Normally calm waters, a stocked lake, easy access the water, and fee free camping are perfect for individuals and families who feel that vacation is more about communing with nature, visiting with friends and family, and great fun in the sun, rather than a hustled and hurried routine.
Less than three miles west of Lake Henry, in the Town of Ordway, one will find two gas stations, a handful of restaurants, a grocery store, a drug store, medical services, a water spray park and quiet and fully shaded parks. Behind the Junior High School you will find tennis courts and a baseball stadium which you are welcome to use. In addition, JR's Country Store offers garbage and sewage dumping services, free Wi-Fi, fishing and hunting licenses, along with laundry facilities.
Camping is free and based on a first come basis. Campfires are permitted in designated areas. PLEASE call the local Sheriff's department to get CURRENT FIREBAN information. 719-267-5235

Lovely Foliage
This lake bed is nearly dry so the camping was super empty. There’s some basic composting toilets but otherwise no facilities. I loved how remote and empty it was.

Last minute slept in car
Place was quiet, besides animals. Pulled over and parked for the night. It was chill no one bothered us. Shell casings everywhere, seems like we always wake up and find out we're in a shooting range. Saw some tracks, bear maybe? Kept the doors locked.

Large sites with plenty of shade
We spent one night here while passing through. We had a reservation in advance, arrived just before they closed, zero issues getting checked in. The place was strangely empty, only a handful of sites taken. Our site was clean and had great shade. Facilities were clean and functional. Zero complaints.

Neenoshe Reservoir
No trees, high plains, hot in June, windy, not crowded
About 15 parking spots off the road in a grassy patch with some bushes. Each spot with a sign labeled "parking" and not explicitly prohibiting camping. Arrived at 5pm and no one else was there but it was 100 degrees (June) too hot to set up tent etc so left and returned when the sun was setting at 8pm. Still no one else at the site and it had cooled down so began setting up tent but while sun was setting the winds picked up enormously (over 18mph) and whipping tent around it was too windy to tent camp so left around sunset. It would be a great camp site if it wasn't too windy! Very spacious, open land, birds singing, few people, green grass and bushes, near a reservoir for fishing, and no bugs besides ants, anthills, flies, grasshoppers, and stink bugs. Bathrooms down the road and good cellphone service

Great Last Minute Save
Last minute ditch effort to find a spot after driving 21 hours. Nice and quiet from any traffic and perfect breeze from the river. Woke up to a beautiful sunrise. Wouldn’t stay here for the day but a beautiful random spot!

Great Stay
I stayed here with my pups for three days. The lake is really pretty - it makes the bugs worth it. There were several other campers, but enough room to spread out for total privacy. You simply drive in and find a spot by the lake. It looked like there were some more single spots right as you drive into the lake area - I might try those next time.

All gravel, but neat and clean. New Owner's for one month now. Nice folks and they are working hard to spiff the place up.

Nice campground
After reserving our campsite, we reached the campground and located spot #61, which was quite distant from the water and restroom facilities. Wanting a better location, we visited the office and the attendant kindly relocated us to waterfront site #35, boasting shaded areas and scenic water views with diverse birdlife. However, upon inspecting the restroom, we were dismayed by the abundance of mold and bugs, making it unsuitable for use. Also bring quarters if you want to take a shower.

Adequate with a great view
It was just a place to park. I only went to sleep for the night, which was fine. I would not want to spend more time than that. I saw a sign that said no fire. But it’s right on the Arkansas River, so at least it had a pretty view

Vogul Canyon
Possible overnight, primarily picnic area
This is a great spot with 3 covered picnic tables with grills. There are 3 nice, relatively short hikes to see canyon, ruins of homestead sites and stagecoach stop. The board clearly states day use only, yet I spent a quick overnight in the parking area. Nice pit toilets, like other USFS sites. There are garbage cans at each of the picnic tables. No water. Met a local here and he told me about Withers Canyon Trailhead, further down a rough road if I wanted to stay longer. It has dispersed camping and a similar toilet.

Cool Caboose
We stayed in the Cool Caboose for a night! It was definitely cool. We were greeted with a warm welcome upon our arrival. An ice cold bottle of water for each of us was a nice touch. The caboose is very cozy and has everything you need for an overnight stay. We made great use of the back patio for dinner and breakfast. The only feedback I have is regarding the beds. They’re not the most comfortable, but they’re sufficient. We’d stay here again. We walked the property and I’d have to say, out of the dozen or so KOAs we’ve stayed at, this is definitely among the best!

Quiet spot right on the trailhead
Secluded area with a pretty clean bathroom. The road is a washboard for a couple miles but worth it.

Lake Henry
Great spot to boondock
There are flies, atvs and trucks that drive around the lake, and cows. If you can deal with those things then this is a great spot! I was left alone, few other campers here and there but we all had plenty of space. I stayed 14 days and would stay again. Some towns nearby too. Gas is really close. The Loves in La Junta is tiny.

Standard campsite
Lots of sites, electric service and water from a tap close. A few nice places to walk and from the back of a bike, plenty of places to ride and explore. Also has a small hike and a frisbee golf course.

Well spaced sites with many trees and Lake Hasty. Bents Fort and Sand Creek Monument in area. Clean showers and rest rooms. Water is available, but no hookups.

Popular campground with shade and lots of birds
I come here most springs for bird migration -- it's fantastic to see the variety of birds that move through this campground. Mature trees provide shade to a large portion of the campground, while another portion is in full sun (with picnic table shades). Popular for weekend boaters and fishers, bathrooms don't stay very clean. Right on a small lake popular for small wakeless craft, includes a swim beach. Part of the State Park system, so expect to pay an entrance fee if you don't have your annual pass.

Sundance High Plains RV Park & Cabins
Cozy atmosphere; great knowledgeable engaging staff!
Fair Pricing! A perfect one night stay for campers who need a place to stay and won’t be using the extras as they do not use a dump station or electric. If your on the road, out of state (quasi-retired aft. 65) trying to see YOUR country and not having deep pockets. Colorado not only charges you a fee to drive into their state Parks but also charge site fees for a camping site. (They should make allowances regarding out of staters & 1 night stays.) This Park was great and does that. It is level, pet friendly for ppl who travel with a pet. (We do not) Plenty hot water in the shower. Happy to have discovered them via local C’ty Rec Ctr. ALSO, really enjoyed friendly knowledgeable staff!

Lake Hasty Campground — John Martin Reservoir State Park
Suppose to be an ACE CG
Called in a rainstorm looking for a site just for the night. They give no discount and also charge a fee just to drive into your site if your out of state. They were far from full. Why not make revenues and give a discount under these conditions. GS Agent sounded haughty regarding questioning the fees. Ppl like to travel but don’t always have deep pockets like the huge RV to spend esp. when just passing thru being an out of stater

Beautiful, lots of room
There is a lot of space for camping on shore. The lake was filled back up to the bank. Bugs were very light.

Nice State Park CG just below the John Martin Reservoir Dam
We have a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow and stayed in site 55 for 2 days in mid June. The pull-through sites are very roomy, lots of open space and fairly level. This is a fairly large CG and there were only a few other campers here mid-week. The road leading to the CG is a little bumpy, but not too bad. The gravel roads within the CG are filled with fairly significant pot holes that must be maneuvered around and there are a few low branches that need to be trimmed. The men’s showers were rust stained, but otherwise fairly clean, but my wife said there was hair on the floor and walls of the women’s showers. The showers are coin operated and mine was amply hot, but the water heater kept shutting off every 45 seconds or so. Turning the faucet off and back to hot would start it again. My wife said hers didn’t shut off, but only got warm. Water spigots available around the CG, but the one nearest us was out of service. AT&T coverage was decent, with 1-2 Bars of LTE service and speeds up to about 3.5 MB/s. We had a clear view of the southern and northern sky, so we were able to get DISH coverage on all three western satellites at our site and Starlink had speed up to 5 MB/s.

Safe & Secure under tornado warning
Right after we set up, a huge storm went through. Never lost power and all was fine. Staff was friendly. A weird set up here, but it works well!! Facility is all gravel. Plenty of room to maneuver. Nice grass area for dogs.

Clean and Well Maintained Campground
Spent the night in early March 2023 on our way back to Colorado from picking up our new Casita travel trailer in Texas. Only four sites were occupied on the evening that we stayed there. The trees were leafless and the grass was that lovely winter brown color, but we loved the solitude and peacefulness of a nearly empty campground.

No amenities. Says there is a vault toilet, but it’s been taken down. Lake is mostly dry. Free range Bulls! They’re nice though.
