Convenient In Town Campground
Tent sites - shared weekend with family. Drive up to unload then a reserved parking spot for vehicle. Water features abound. Because of high snow and record rainfall, most water activities were forbidden which was a huge disappointment. No camp fires allowed at any time. Large gas firepit centrally located but turns off at 8 pm which was actually before dark so that was disappointing. Flush toilets in large bathroom. Every manner of Rec opportunities: volleyball, soccer, etc. Two playgrounds, splashpad, and kid zip line. Beautifully nestled in between large rock formations. Eagles spotted a well as a troublemaking 150 lb black bear. Camp hosts friendly and very active. All food had to be removed to vehicles due to that bear visiting at night. Recommended but must understand this is a free public park so very busy but did have Quiet Hours and public is expected to leave at 8pm. Very quiet in the morning as public not admitted till mid-morning.

Nice park
Camping in a city park. Friendly people dusty road
Well manicured and beautiful park with camping options
RV and tent camping options within a lovely manicured park with the beautiful St Vrain creek running through it. Walking trails and river access was abundantly available. Easy walking or biking distance to various eateries in Lyons. We stayed 2 nights but would have liked to stay for 3 or more if the #8 site we were in was still available or the other preferred end site, #9, was available. I was not impressed with the other super tight RV sites in-between, otherwise I would have given 5 stars.
