Uncompahgre National Forest Thistledown Campground
Reviewed Jul. 28, 2022

Stunning views along creek

This was our third choice after Amphitheater and Angel Creek. We were so happy that no sites were available at the first two campgrounds. Thistledown was beautiful. Our site #3 was right along the creek with views of the cliffs. There were three additional small tent pads in addition to the provided gravel pad. All sites are provided a bear box and vault toilets and trash dumpster are available. Creek was silty due to rain so was not a reliable water source. $10/night.
