Shelter Point — Glendo State Park

Shelter Point is a well-established campground which neighbors the Marina, and has 26 campsites with gravel parking pads. The campground sits on a wide open point which provides stunning views of the reservoir, the dam, and vast night skies. All sites are designed to accommodate large camping units, and are easily accessible by an established gravel road. The campground has very little tree cover, so all sites have little, to no shade. Shelter Point has three, day use group shelters, one of which is available for reservation from May 1 to September 30; the rest are available on a first-come-first-served basis. While the campground itself doesn’t have a boat ramp, the Marina ramp is just next door, and provides easy, close access to the water. On the south side of the campground, there is also a small beach which is nicely sheltered and sandy enough to make it one of the most popular day use beaches on the western side of the reservoir.
