Curt Gowdy State Park Campground

Stunning location with many campsites available. I only stopped overnight on a rainy day, but this place looks like it would be an awesome summer spot.

Vault toilets at campsite, quarter operated showers and flush toilets at the visitor center.

Semi-dispersed. My site GP153 is not level. Need level blocks! Entrance right to the lake for water sports. Easy hiking trial to loop the lake at your campsite. Fire ring was allowed even with high fire warning and fire bans south in CO.

Absolutely awesome campground. Beautiful stars at night. Be careful of your ways or GPS sending you in a different direction

Unfortunately we only got to stay one night here and I only got a few pictures. We got lucky and we’re able to book one of the last spot available for weeks. This place is always booked and I see why!Very quiet. A beautiful lake view. Ice and fire wood available nearby. Would definitely stay again

We only got to stay one night but we enjoyed our stay! We were right next to the lake and watched the super blue moon come up over the lake. The showers are in the downstairs of the visitor center and you have to pay with quarters, there is a change machine $1.25 for the first 7.5 minutes and then you can add more as needed.

Second time staying here. Tent camping and a rooftop tent. We stayed on the north causeway. We had the peninsula spot which was the best spot in that area. Beautiful lake and wildlife. Wish I had fishing gear with me. The staff keep this park clean. Thank you to them! Will be back.

Roads are gravel & dirt. A little bumpy. We paid $45/night with electric. Overall, it was really nice (and quiet). A lot of sites around us.

We had an enjoyable one night stay at Curt Gowdy State Park. Sites are fairly spread out and are nice with electrical and water. The website said prices from $27.00 but at checkout it actually cost $50.00 for a one night stay. There is no dump station at the park which is kind of a pain. There are a few pay dump station within 10-15 miles. Overall nice place if you don’t mind the $50.00 a night fee.

Curt Gowdy State Park is a peaceful spot situated between Cheyenne and Laramie. The park features a number of amenities for those looking to enjoy hiking, biking, fishing, and water sports. Trails are abundant as is the wildlife that surrounds much of the park.

Sites are mostly dirt / gravel with a few concrete pads depending on which loop you choose for you stay. We camped on Silver Crown which has no hookups, but was a great spot for capturing plenty of sunlight on our solar panels.

To put it plainly, this is a great spot to boondock. We will be back.

Super busy, their reservation system is all messed up, camp host can't even tell you if any spot is open so you'll have to drive around using their map. Book ahead if you want to stay here. Looked like a nice lake, posted all over that there is no swimming at all.

Easy drive from Loveland Colorado. The check In was very easy and the trails are right outside of the camp grounds. The park does have hook ups for water and power.

Beautiful doesn't describe this state park. The lakes are gorgeous with the mountains around them, they, the camping sites are varied in their elevation and closeness to the lake. We stayed on a wonderful cement pad site, perfect especially for a rainy day.

We loved this park it is on a nice area with a lot of things to do around the area!

haven't been camping long, but this was the single nicest campground i've stayed at to date. Amenities were great, site was fairly private and the landscape was spectacular.

Close walking distance to lake. Would be hard pressed to find a nicer place.

Great hike. To falls

HUGE campground with rock climbing, biking, kayaking, hiking, and lots of beautifully colored views!

We have camped at Curt Gowdy a few times, but this weekend we had a site that was a favorite for sure! We camped in the Tumbleweeds loop site 32 Which had a gazebo, table, fire pit and a little path down to the beach/water.

There was some broken glass, and the fire pit needed to be cleaned out as it was full of ash, but overall it was perfect for our family.

The little camp store area is a quick 5 minute walk down the road where you can buy fire wood, snacks, live bait or rent paddle boards, kayaks, or canoes. We rented a paddle board for the day and had a great time out on the water!

Only giving the campground a 4/5 because there are always minor things with the campsite whether it be glass, garbage, a full fire pit… but those don’t ruin the weekend for us. The staff is always friendly, the rangers drive by a couple times a day.

Beautiful spot by the water. Not many mosquitoes though. Bathrooms were a bit far away from the spot.  I didn't see showers but maybe they were in a different location from us? Highly recommend the Camp Store. It's more of a food truck than a store, but the owners are wonderful.

While the location and sites were beautiful, the staff were curt and not so helpful. We tried to find hiking paths but the map was completely useless, so we had to guess as to our directions. Poorly run, but nevertheless still a beautiful area

Would stay here again, several different loops of varying style. Many options were available rolling in without a reservation. Each loop had a different camp name, it was confusing at night but in the morning I saw two pristinely located spots I could have snagged. Clean amenities beautiful views. We used a car top tent and had an easy time.

Curt Gowdy is a beautiful and huge state park that has a bunch of small campgrounds centered around two reservoirs. We were disappointed with the first site we booked at the Crystal Reservoir so we found another site in the North Causeway area of the larger Granite reservoir. Both areas are lovely, we just wanted a bigger site. We were very happy with our stay. We hiked, paddle boarded and fished all within steps of our campsite. We were sad to leave.

Beautiful family campground. Sites are grouped together and sites for RVs around the lake hot days for a hike around the mountains sides or a bike trails climbing rocks and walking to hidden falls for a swim

Sites grouped but only 4 to 6 to a site some right next to the lake hiking trails and hidden falls to swim at and bike trails and little areas to stop on the trails to see the map of were you are

This was just an overnight stop, we were placed upon a hill top in the open right next to a reservable picnic shelter.  The wind wind was brutal, but it was a pretty view.  The amenities at the park are quite good, the visitor center was very nice and the showers and bathrooms were clean and very well maintained.  Since we were only doing an overnight I cannot comment overall on the park.  We did see some very very nice tent sites and trailer sites.  Its a water sports kind of park but in early may the weather was rather cold and the wind as I said was brutal.

It snowed the night before our arrival, do the crystal blue lakes really stop out. The views were really good from most sites we could see. Of course, early in the season. There were only 2 other campers on this Thursday.
Pros: some electric sites, nice hiking, great fishing, kayaking/SUP, really pretty welcome lodge, generous size sites most with lake and mountain views. We did see cabins. Park is very clean. Close to 2 major interstates but you feel like you are in the backcountry. Cons: no water at sites, but fill Station available. Only pit toilets. Expensive- electric sites $27 PLUS $12 per day per vehicle. $96 for annual non residents pass for 1 vehicle.
