"Camp at designated sites only. There are no numbered spaces, just small round a bouts and pull offs to pull into. About 6 vehicles is max for this site. Pit toilet located here."
"It was a nice area next to the river. Some tall grass but that wasn’t much a bother. I had no issues with mosquitoes."
"Scattered informal sites, no water or hookups, two pit toilets. Signs indicate that camping is OK. Beautiful location on the North Platte River."
"There was a couple different spots, mine was away from some of the seemingly main spots. Beautiful riverside"
"There is a sign at the beginning of the dirt road for high clearance and 4 wheel drive. This is not a suggestion. This spot was beautiful, peaceful and primitive."
"We stayed here at the lake. Camping limit is 5 days. Beautiful Mountain View, swimming and fishing. No cell phone service with Verizon. No running water has restrooms and lots of camp/ picnic tables."
"Camped at Lake Hattie May 2020. We have a Tacoma and RTT, but any sort of car or camper could make it here no problem. No fees - this is BLM land."
"What a beautiful drive to the campsite. Our girls had a blast exploring and making their "fort". A very clean and peaceful place with an amazing view."
"The campground is an hour north of Steamboat Springs and on Hahn’s Peak Lake. Steamboat Lake State Park is 15 minutes away. Spots are large and 5 are FF."
"Just what we needed driving from the Tetons back to Denver. It was easy to find, was right on the route, and was far enough from the highway that traffic was just gentle light noise. Felt very safe!"
"There appears to be some other campers down the road another 1/2 mile but we chose to stay at this location. Hopefully there is no issues overnight and this will be as good as I think."
ScoutThis wooded campground has a very narrow season. Gravel roads (starting at Albany) were snowed in 4 miles out in late May 2019, While there are gendered vault toilets (TP stocked), bring your own water for cooking and cleaning. This fact alone makes it better for RVs than tent campers like us. There are loads of sites, well spaced with fire rings and picnic tables. We got rain and small hail on the 3rd weekend in July and it got to 40 F or below overnight. Deer, chipmunks, and a bald eagle were spotted. There were mosquitoes. There is a boat ramp into the reservoir. Heavily ATV traffic. Dog friendly but must be on leash. Gunfire noted early and late across reservoir. With proper prior planning, you will probably have a pleasant experience.
Legend$10; $5 with senior/interagency pass. Camped in site 8 on Oct 12, 2024; in my opinion, this is the best site. Short walk to his/hers vault toilets in day use area. Trash cans nearby. Site was level & accommodated my van. Area for setting up tent. Hammock camping possible. We'll water pump located near entrance to campground next to site #2. Picnic table and metal firering on site. Overall, the campsite was clean. Good separation between sites. Some trees and foliage between sites. Site was mostly shaded. Encampment River was behind the site. Hiking trail nearby. Liked this campground. I would stay here again. Campground was well maintained, and the vault toilet was clean and stocked. Very weak T-Mobile and AT&T service.
GuideThere are probably 7 or 8 spots with picnic tables. Most have fire rings and a grill but not all. Bathrooms within walking distance. Dry and bare ground scape so no wood scavenging to be done here. Bring in firewood for sure! Also wouldn’t recommend tent camping as the ground is gravel with lots of rocks of various sizes! Easy road in so could bring a trailer or RV of any size. Pretty views. Only one other group here so quiet and lots of space
GuideThis campground was great! It was our backup plan… Sugarloaf was full.
We camped site #5. Which has a partial view of the lake through some trees, but a great view of the mountains.
Campsites have picnic tables and fire rings.
Road in was slightly rough, but easy to find/navigate, and any decent car can make it.
No water while we were there, but vault toilets were decent and open, there are 2 total. Trash is also available, so dont worry about packing it out.
ATT had spotty service, but you can hike up and maybe get a bar or two.
Speaking of hiking… There are some great trails which lead up to a glacial lake with some incredible views.
The other reviews about mosquitos are correct… They are relentless in the evening and mornings, but we were one of the closest campsites to the water, so the sites further back might have been a little better.
Arrive early(ish). We got here about 11am and site #5 was the only one available. Watched about a dozen more vehicles drive around camp throughout the day, without the same luck. This was on a Wednesday.
Overall, we had a great time here. Scenery was great, sites were clean, people were friendly.
RangerWell north of Steamboat Springs, up a beautiful valley and on a nice man-made lake. The sites are on top of each other and the beetle kill of the pines have made this a bit barren looking. Campsite can get loud with lots of family stuff going on. The lake is nice for a canoe and paddle board. Good launching point for hikes and MTB.
Leave no trace.
GuideGreat BLM campground with fire rings, water and amazing scenery. Located where the North Platte river cuts through sagebrush country, the hills and peaks resembling prehistoric boulders... in the middle of ranch country, the drive in takes you all the way to the end of the road. Just keep going until you can’t go anymore. The road is in good condition. There’s cattle, horses and plenty of pronghorn wandering about. The sites each have a couple picnic tables. Fire rings have cooking grates. And the well pump has a crank for easy use. 1 vault toilet. There’s a boat ramp for the numerous oar-float boats and rafts going in and out. Down stream is treasure island... another campground located outside Saratoga’. Upstream within a half mile is the coral creek campground. Days were warm but the nights cooled off considerably. It was the 4th of July and more than half the sites were available.
GuideWalk-in availability only and about 11 sites which worked out fine. Only about 9 were filled when we were there. The bugs here got pretty annoying pretty quickly so be prepared. You will need a bear bag or vault. There are vault toilets and bear proof trash cans available. Water is also available. The tent sites were decent. You can fish in a nearby stream and check out the Green Mountain Falls accessible by day hike. They are worth seeing!
GuideWe had reservations for site 184 in the Dutch Hill Campground for Memorial Day Weekend and we didn't let the forecast of snow and below freezing temperatures keep us away. It scared every other tent camper off and we had the walk-in loop to ourselves. The camp host called us his heroes for camping in that weather. Our site was fairly close to the parking lot and we don't pack light so we made a few trips with the provided wheelbarrow. The site had great views of the lake and a shelter that was necessary given the rain and snow. Note-not all sites had shelters. The vault toilet at the top of the loop was clean. Dumpsters were in a few places but not bear proof at all. Firewood was 9$ per bundle at the marina. Shower house was open and operational but we didn't pack for a shower so didn't use it. Overall, a great campsite-but not sure how it would've been if the weather hadn't kept the crowds away.
