Williams Fork

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Dispersed camping in Arapaho National Forest along Williams Fork puts campers near hiking trails and a reservoir that stays open well into late fall. Sites have room to spread out, with other campers typically out of sight and earshot. One notable feature to know before arriving: a large pipeline runs alongside the camping area, a byproduct of a nearby mill. Picnic tables, toilets, a dump station, and ADA access are available, and the area is big-rig friendly. South Fork Rustic Campground sits a few miles to the southeast for those wanting a developed alternative.

Moderately busy, well spaced out

There is some solid hiking very close by. The mill nearby kind of ruins the scenery, as there is a massive pipeline that runs next to the camping area. That being said, there was plenty of room for the dog to run. There were other people around, but none within sight or hearing distance. Nights were pretty cool, but the days were perfect.

Quiet Hidden gem

No one there but us and some elk. Bathroom and trash still available. No winter maintenance but roads fine on our visit. Lake not frozen yet.
