Recreation
Lake Granby is part of the Arapaho National Recreation Area. It offers boating, sailing, swimming and fishing. Anglers cast for kokanee salmon and rainbow, brown, mackinaw and cutthroat trout. A boat ramp and dock are located on-site. National Fishing Week is held annually the first week of June. Numerous hiking and horseback riding trails are located within the Arapaho National Recreation Area, including the East Shore Trail (which is part of the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail), Roaring Fork Trail and Monarch Lake Trail.

This campground is the largest one available on the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forest. It offers 129 sites, 21 of which have electric hookups. Single- and double-family campsites are available and some are accessible. Each site is equipped with a picnic table, campfire ring and tent pad. Parking can accommodate RVs of many sizes; spurs range from 25 to 40 feet in length. Flush and vault toilets, showers, drinking water and a dump station are provided.
Natural Features
The campground is situated on the northern shore of Lake Granby, at an elevation of 8,300 feet. Afternoon thunderstorms should be expected during the summer months. Due to the mountain pine beetle infestation and consequent removal of hazardous trees, the campground has little to no shade.

ScoutStillwater Campground
Great campground. Majority of the sites had great views, a few sit lower if you like more privacy. A couple of the bathrooms have showers ( free ). Wood is for sale 24 /7.
Small town Grand Lakes is absolutely charming lots of restaurants & shops. Stop on your way to or from RMNP.
Host John, Luanne & Tim are very attentive and go up and beyond.
TravelerSites are smaller than depected.
There are many large rocks surrounding the sites. Making it difficult for a rig over 35'. Views were wonderful and water access was good. Great for tents. Just very limited 4 large rigs.

My site (49) was set up on the hill near the water tank providing me with beautiful Mountain View's from my Class A. I did not use the bathrooms but there were very busy hosts around and available if there was a complaint. I was new to this type of campground where there is no check in - you just drive in to your reserved site. The only complaint I had for my site is the level. It was horribly downhill and just barely long enough for my rig so I had to really work to get things sorta level and since I was in a class A without a tow this means I had to go through this ritual every time I came in. Contributing to the difficulty was the soft gravel base that sunk under the weight of my rig.
