Stunning place

Such a beautiful place makes it up for the norrow/bumpy 8 miles road to get there. The creek sound off the noise of the busy road since I camped close to the road with my 21’TT It wasn’t level enough so I dont think I will be back but I loved it, I spend 10 days and I have no complaints with temp of 65-45 it was womderful taking off the crazy storm with having hailing one night. So sad people laugh so much trash behind even broken glasses.

Unreal camping spot!

Unfortunately some of the campsites were absolutely trashed :( however, we walked a bit to find a good spot right next to the creek with a mini fire pit and enough flat ground to pitch a tent. The spot was gorgeous and the sound of the creek completely drowned out any noises or people. When we went not many people out there however, the spots are super separated. Even has a nice big flat area to pull in an RV or something like that. The road was pretty bumpy, windy and very narrow in some areas but nothing too crazy.

Great spot!

Was pretty busy, hard to find a spot at first but found a campsite across the stream that you cross a log on. Beautiful drive to get to.

Secluded sites along creek

Drove ~3 miles along the service road to find our spot, it was the second pull off “open-area” with several fire pits to choose from. Road was a little bumpy but would be fine with a 2WD. Gorgeous, secluded spot next to the creek. No Verizon service.

Peaceful and Secluded

Came mid August. Arrived about 5pm on a Saturday and there were a handful of spots left. I was right next to the river. Had 2 groups close to me that I could see, but it wasn’t an issue. Easy enough to get to.

Best campsite I've ever had

I've stayed at some great campsites but I think this one has them beat. HUGE site right next to a creek. Not a solid around on a Wednesday. I expect the weekend to pick up but for right now it’s quiet and peaceful.

Not many places especially not for RVs

We drove out here based on the good reviews, but were very disappointed. The roads getting here are not very good and especially if you are hauling an RV. We like to boondock off the grid, but unfortunately this is not the place for us.

Incredible creekside camping

Amazing location right next to Boehmer Creek. There are 5 or 6 sites mainly for tents. You might be able ti get an rv in there but low hanging trees and narrow rutted trails would be a problem. There were insects around so bring bug spray and flytraps. The creek has trout if fishing is your thing. Not much wildlife but there are great hikes in the area. Skagway reservoir is close and a must see. You can also get supplies in the nearby town of Victor. To get there you are better off taking Goldcamp Road from the Victor side. We approached from Colorado Springs and the road is very rotted due to the amount of rainfall we’ve had. I would not recommend trying to get an RV through that. From Victor, you do have to go through a narrow tunnel with an 11’2” clearance but the road is far better maintained.
