Two Moon is Glendo’s oldest campground, and can be accessed from I-25 by making your way through town to Glendo Park Road, and following Glendo Park road for about 4 miles, until you see the signs for Two Moon Campground. There are three entrances that will take you into the campground. It is situated within a pine forest, on a bluff which overlooks the lake. While there is no direct water access from Two Moon Campground, the Marina Boat ramp is a short 3/4 mile jaunt away and there is a small, but popular day use beach near the Marina, which can be accessed through Shelter Point Campground. Two Moon does have a trailhead, which gives hikers and bikers access to a large section of our non-motorized trail system, including a fairly easy-going trail which encircles the campground, and provides some beautiful views of the reservoir and dam. Two Moon also has three yurts, which are available for reservation year-round. Please check out our page on the yurts here for more information. Because of its age, much of Two Moon is built to accommodate smaller camping units (27 feet or less) and tents. We encourage visitors with larger RVs and fifth wheels to use the campground’s electrical sites and/or most of the campsites along the side of the campground closest to Glendo Park Road; the access road to the campsites farther back is narrow and winding, and most of those sites are too small to accommodate such camping units. Because Two Moon has such extensive amenities, and is relatively close to the park entrance, it is our most popular campground during the Spring, Fall, and Winter, though it recently has been an immensely popular summer destination as well.
CAMPSITES AT COLTER BAY ARE AVAILABLE ONLY ON A FIRST-COME-FIRST-SERVED BASIS. CAMPING IS ALLOWED AT DESIGNATED SITES ONLY.
Colter Bay is a small campground, which is situated in a stand of Cottonwood trees just off of Lakeshore Drive. With only seven individual campsites, it is an ideal spot for you and your family to have some space to yourselves. The campground is largely undeveloped, with only a dirt road for access; six of the campsites do not have any established camping pads. Site 5 has an ADA compliant concrete RV pad. Colter Bay also has decently close access to the water on a seasonal basis. Normally, from May through early-mid July, the bay has water in it, and the campsites have very close foot-traffic access to the water. The water access, and sheltered nature of the cove make Colter Bay a very popular campground during high water. During the rest of the year, the bay drains out, and this campground becomes one of the farthest from the water. All campsites in Colter Bay are potentially impacted during high water flooding.
Overnight camping is on a first-come, first-serve basis only; reservations are not accepted. Overnight camping is limited to two (2) nights; tents are also allowed.
To access Reno Cove from the I-25 exit, make your way through town to Glendo Park Road, and turn south towards the main fee booth. Just after the Main Fee Booth, turn left onto Lakeshore Drive, and follow Lakeshore Drive for about 3 miles; the campground will be on your right. Reno Cove follows a hillside which slopes towards the lake, and culminates in a long, low water boat ramp at the end. It is largely situated in a stand of small ponderosa pine trees, and is a campground with 22 campsites, spread over three separate areas, each of which has a nearby vault toilet. Sites 1 through 11 are all large sites with well-established camping pads, and electrical hookups. These sites will accommodate large rigs, and for the most part have little to no shade. Sites 9, 10, and 11 are partially shaded. All but one of the other campsites in Reno are undeveloped, with varying degrees of rougher terrain. Sites 2 and 18 have large, cement ADA compliant parking pad, although the access road to 18 is undeveloped. The other sites are better suited to smaller camping rigs and/or tent camping. Reno Cove has one water hydrant, which is located on the western side of the high water boat ramp parking lot. The campground also has two boat ramps: one for high water, and one for low water. This makes Reno one of two boat ramps which are reliably available year round.
Amenities: Electricity (at select sites), Drinking Water, Day Use Group Shelter, Seasonal Boat Ramp and Courtesy Dock, Vault Toilets (3), Fee Canister, ADA accessible camping pads (3)
Bennett Hill is a wide open campground with 44 campsites, and can be most easily accessed from I-25 by turning north on Highway 319 in the town of Glendo, and then turning right onto Lakeshore Drive. Bennett Hill is about a mile down Lakeshore Drive, and will be on the left. The campground is spacious and has plenty of area for you and your family to enjoy the sun and some extraordinary night skies. Most campsites are exposed, with little to no shade, and are situated in a prairie of native grasses. The only exceptions are sites 11 through 20, which are up against a line of cottonwoods. All sites, except for 11 through 20 have large, established, gravel pads for RVs. Sites 11 through 20 are potentially impacted by high water, though trees prevent them from having direct water access. All other sites are a good distance from the water, though many have a decent view of Airport Bay. Sites 3,4, and 6, along with sites 26 through 29 are group sites, which will accommodate up to three camping units. The boat ramp is available seasonally, with the courtesy dock becoming usable in early Spring, and coming out of the water in late July to early August. The day use shelter is reservable from May 1 through September 30.
Sandy Beach is a large, white-sand beach on the eastern side of the reservoir. The beach provides a spectacular view of the reservoir, and Laramie Peak to the west. The wide open sand and gradually sloping shoreline give plentiful opportunities for swimming and water recreation, which makes Sandy Beach one of our park’s most popular summer destinations. Campsites at Sandy Beach are divided into two campgrounds: Sandy Beach Dune and Sandy Beach Willow. There is a fee booth at the entrance to these campgrounds as well. To access Sandy Beach, follow the standard directions to access the Glendo State Park Main Fee Booth. However, once you are headed south on Glendo Park Road, follow it past the main fee booth and over the dam. After you have crossed the dam, stay on Glendo Park Road for another 8.5 miles, until you see the large sign for Sandy Beach. Turn left, following the signage until you see the Sandy Beach fee booth; go through the booth entrance to access either Dune or Willow Campgrounds.
Cottonwood is a campground on the northeastern shore of the reservoir, and can be accessed by turning north, just before the Sandy Beach Fee Booth and following the gravel road for a half mile. Largely situated on the sand, Cottonwood provides excellent beach access for most of the summer, and is mostly situated in a cottonwood grove, which provides excellent picnicking opportunities. The campground has 14 sites spread across three separate areas. Sites 1 through six are clustered together underneath a stand of cottonwood trees. The campground’s only toilet and water hydrant are near these sites. Sites 7 through 13 are further east, and are situated against a stand of Cottonwood trees; these sites are all at least partially shaded. Site 14 is further east, and sits just over a hill away from the main campground. The level camping area at site 14 is fairly exposed, but trees surround the campsite. From mid-May to mid-late July, the campsites at Cottonwood are a short walk from the water’s edge, with cottonwoods and a sandy beach in between. During the rest of the year, Cottonwood Cove is drained or in the process of draining, and the campground becomes farther away from the water.
