"We were looking for a place to overnight in between stays and stumbled onto McDonald Flats after having no luck at a few other spots along Highway 6."
ScoutI checked out this area and the exact place. No trespassing signs everywhere including this particular sight. So many private properties in the area that i gave up camping there
ScoutThis was a great stay, conveniently located just down 285 for a short get away during the work week. We stayed for 3 days and during that time there were only a few other campers here. All of the sites are surrounded by trees, there is quite a bit of shade, and even though it is very close to 285 I thought the road noise was pretty minimal. The campground is very clean, the camp sites were nicely spaced out, the vaulted toilets were very clean, even though we had brought plenty of water there is a water pump (we did not use it so can't speak to it), and having a trash dumpster on the grounds was convenient. The camp host, Dan, was very nice and we saw him on multiple days so it's nice to know there is someone around day or night. The trailhead for section 6 of the Colorado Trail is right next to the campgrounds so we checked out a portion while we were here and loved it. There is no Verizon service anywhere on the campgrounds
ScoutWould be 5 stars if the restrooms were open, however the porta-potties are spotless if not somewhat full of waste after only one day. Wonder how often they pump them out?
I stayed at spot 60 and thought it was lakefront. There's a berm between the spot and the lake, no view.
Very quiet campground with generous space for most spots. Easy bike trail to town with rolling hills.
GuideVery remote but easy access, we car camped to be near a trailhead the next morning. We had some visitors in the middle of the night that were racing their trucks around in the parking lot, but I doubt that’s an every day occurrence. Overall pretty good parking lot campsite.
ScoutGreat spot for a night or two , loop goes around hill blocking highway , all sizes fit! Why sleep in a parking lot when this gem exists!
ScoutThe Dyrt usually has great camping sites, this one I’m not sure why it has 4 stars. First off, you cannot access the lake from any campsite, it’s a steep drop off from the area. So if you are looking to kayak or paddleboard, or camp lakeside this is not where you want to go. It’s also Denver drinking water so you can’t go in the water. The drive in is beautiful, flowers everywhere but I don’t think you want to camp here. We camped Sunday night and there is a Mine or Quarry on the other side of the ‘lake’ and they worked non stop for 24 hours, which means non stop noise. Once it got dark they had 3 bright spot lights that traveled across and lit up most of the campsites so you can’t see any stars. I’m not sure why no reviews mention this, maybe it’s only seasonal or certain days that they work 24/7 but good luck sleeping while listening to construction noises and bright lights. Also there are mountain lions in the area so they national forest recommends not bringing your dogs which also isn’t mentioned here at all.
RangerThis series of pullouts is excellent for those that want to camp near steamboat for $0. They do slope upwards, so bring your leveling blocks. We choose the third loop uphill, some lake views and we watched a thunderstorm roll across the valley. We fit our 20 ft trailer easily, others had longer ones, also saw tents, vans and cars camping.
GuideI loved this spot! it’s only about 10 minutes from Nederland and 45 minutes from boulder. There are mountains and aspen forests. and wildflowers everywhere! i also saw elk nearby. the road isn’t terrible but there are some rocks and bumps. i made it in a volkswagen tiguan while towing a camper. i couldn’t get super far down the road but i made it to a nice spot on the top of a hill. It got a bit chilly at night but not too bad! I also had 1 bar of 5g with t-mobile. i recommend for mountain peacefulness!
ScoutThis place was a quick hike to some of the campsites. Beware there are signs stating to not build fires and be within 1/4 mile of creek. Place was clean and beautiful!
