    Bellyache Road

    Super rutted out, but unbelievable views

    Definitely would advise 4x4, and not for travel trailers at all. Bringing one up could lead to a serious situation , since there are no places to turn around whatsoever. That said, views were absolutely breathtaking. We also lucked out and saw the northern lights while at site.

    Tough trail post rain

    Camp sites here are not well defined (look for fire rings). The trail is heavily rutted, and if it just rained gets incredibly muddy. Would definitely recommend a vehicle with decent 8”+ clearance, and decent all terrain tires if using the trail post rain. Otherwise my dogs loved playing in the sage brush.

    Says no public use

    The sign says that state trust land closed March 1-Aug 31, unfortunate bc the app says that this is a free place to camp or hike

    Wolford Campground

    March 2024

    Only one loop was open/plowed, but that was plenty as I was the only one there for a couple nights. Nothing spectacular about this place during winter, but it appears to be a popular ice fishing spot. 30 amp power was clean. Wasn’t horrible leveling a small camper, but I can see why larger ones would have a hard time.

    Sunrise Vista - Steamboat Lake State Park

    Mountain star and lake views

    Nicely separated sites. Superb view of Hawn’s peak. Depending upon chosen site, good views of lake or Hawn’s park. Site 42 just glimpses of lake. Campground was nearly empty mid week late September. Nice. Quiet. Level spots large tent pads. Heated flush restrooms and showers. Very limited T-Mobile. Very good star watching.

    Easy access by a forester

    Efficient for the evening. Sites are a bit unclear. Hikers on road in the AM and bikers on trail nearby. Good for a drive through on 70

    Strawberry Park Hot Springs

    Unreasonable Treatment and Lack of Accountability

    Never experienced such unreasonable treatment and Lack of Accountability in a business like this. We drove for 4 hours to reach this place and arrived feeling very hungry, we informed the staff that we wanted to grab something to eat and before starting the hot spring. The staff first said that we could pay upon our return. Then, I asked to use the bathroom, but was informed that there was a fee to enter. So I paid $40 in cash for two people, but no receipt was provided. The staff assured us that they would remember us and let us in when we returned. 

    However, upon our return, we encountered a different staff member, and had to explained the situation to them. Unfortunately, this individual did not believe our story and refused to let us enter. I suggested that they contact the previous staff member for verification, but the staff member in glasses either declined or claimed to have left their phone behind. Suddenly, in an extremely rude manner, he stood up, leaned out the window, and yelled at me, saying,"Don't tell me what to do!!!!This is private property, and you need to leave!!!!!" 

    This treatment made it seem as if we were attempting to sneak into the premises. At this point, I no longer wanted to proceed with the hot spring experience. I agreed to leave, but requested a refund for the$40 I had paid. However, this staff member adamantly refused to reimburse me and continued to yell at us, insisting that we leave. 

    It is incredibly frustrating that they couldn’t even find my payment record because everything was by cash and I never received a receipt. I wasted $40 and endured a grueling 4-hour drive, only to be met with an absolutely unreasonable situation. I’ve been to many hot springs before, never in my life experienced something terrible like this. I urge everyone to learn from my lesson and avoid visiting this place!!

    Steamboat Springs KOA

    Spacious, Clean, Pretty

    Office people are very friendly. Staff escorted me to the site and was very helpful. The grounds are pretty and well kept and clean. Showers were spotlessly cleaned. The river runs right next to the campground.
    There is a bus that comes right into the campground and will take you into downtown Steamboat Springs, and it is a free service. It runs until 1130pm. Site 74 was perfectly flat and needed no leveling. Plenty of room for my 30' trailer. I will be returning to this place!

    Great little cam area

    I have camped at the campsites located just before the entrance to the Piney Lake Ranch. There’s about 8 Free campsites. Short walk to Ranch. Outside restrooms. Great restaurant at the Ranch.

    Pricey for a car park

    I thought this was going to be a real campground with reserved spots as it costs 110$ per night and they say reservations are necessary. However they offered me car park and a spot by the river where I could walk down and cook. There are bathrooms on site too. I decided it wasn’t worth it as I was planning on spending most of the evening at hot springs anyway - did that ($20) and then found a spot elsewhere to park for the night.

    Great for Winter Camping

    Women’s restrooms were great and hook ups were awesome. Camped here in our pop up truck camper for a ski weekend and it was great - the free city bus stops by the campground so was super easy to ride to the ski resort and downtown for dinner!

    Nice folks, cramped sites

    This park has an old and new section. Right on the river. The older (cheaper) section was ok, but muddy and tight for big rigs. Newer section compares to premium resorts

    Beautiful tent sites by the lake. 186-188 are quiet and beautiful. Especially during the week! Highly recommend!

    Great Camp site

    This site has some great amenities and the location is not too far from town. The facilities were clean, and the site is well maintained. But, the only showers are in the bath room by the front desk, it is a trek. There is no shade on the far side of camp, but the sites by the entrance have tons of trees! The river is nice, but there aren’t a whole lot of access points.

    Big Park, close to Steamboat Springs

    It’s a large park convenient to steamboat springs. WiFi is good restrooms are clean. Sites in the new section are paved and level. There are only bathrooms in the new section, no showers, so there is a significant walk to get a shower.

    Sunrise Vista - Steamboat Lake State Park

    Beautiful vistas and well maintained

    We spent three nights here and loved it. There are many campsites on the edges of the campground loops that have trees and afford more privacy, but we were late in booking.  As it turned out, we had a great view and deer came through the meadow in the evenings.  Sites are level and well-maintained. The wildflowers were beautiful and the views of the lake and the mountains were gorgeous. There are nice hiking trails in the park and the lake looks like an awesome place for paddle boarding and canoes if you're into that sort of thing. A nice little beach for the kids, too. There are brand new showers in Harebell. The camp rangers and hosts were very helpful and pleasant.

    Friendliest and hard working staff

    We stayed at the Steamboat KOA for 2-1/2 weeks on a business trip and greatly appreciated the solid Wi-Fi. The setting is idyllic with mature trees and the beautiful Yampa River running through it. The first half of our stay we were in the original Campground with a center, gravel, pull thru, #71. Then, moved to #31 a back-in site against the fence and away from the road. Although it was smaller, we personally liked #31 better. It had more privacy then the larger open center one. The park opened a new section for Memorial Weekend doubling the size. The new area added 27 paved RV lots as well as 10 deluxe cabins and 14 improved tent sites. They had a large friendly staff, working nonstop who took care of everything!! Every arrival received a person golf cart escort to their site. The general store is well stocked, there’s movie nights and a playground for the kiddos. All the facilities were clean and well maintained. By the end of our stay we felt like family thanks to Lance, Ruth and Beth.

    Sunrise Vista - Steamboat Lake State Park

    Stunning lake, lots of beauty to see.

    We visited this site in Hahns Peak for the first time, it is breathtaking with the scenery it offers. We were able to experience beautiful mountain scenery, have an easygoing time on our paddle boards, and experience the adventure of the trails. Friendly and helpful camp hosts, great environment. It is a popular campground, so you are likely to have several “neighbors”. Nothing wrong with a little company though!

    Steamboat Lake in the Snow

    We had reservations for site 184 in the Dutch Hill Campground for Memorial Day Weekend and we didn't let the forecast of snow and below freezing temperatures keep us away. It scared every other tent camper off and we had the walk-in loop to ourselves. The camp host called us his heroes for camping in that weather. Our site was fairly close to the parking lot and we don't pack light so we made a few trips with the provided wheelbarrow. The site had great views of the lake and a shelter that was necessary given the rain and snow. Note-not all sites had shelters. The vault toilet at the top of the loop was clean. Dumpsters were in a few places but not bear proof at all. Firewood was 9$ per bundle at the marina. Shower house was open and operational but we didn't pack for a shower so didn't use it. Overall, a great campsite-but not sure how it would've been if the weather hadn't kept the crowds away.

    Beautiful

    Water and electric hook up for RVs. Cabins. Laundry. Near a beautiful river. Only downside is that it’s a little expensive and right off the highway
