Water enthusiasts find direct lake access at Soldier Rock Area, though the approach requires careful vehicle planning. This walk-in campground within Glendo Reservoir State Park features 12 sites scattered across loops and off-road locations, with some offering lake views and water access. The area provides partial shade and basic amenities including fire rings, picnic tables, and vault toilets.
Road conditions present the main challenge here. The dirt access roads are steep and prone to washouts, making high-clearance vehicles strongly recommended over standard cars. Sites remain more secluded than other areas on this side of the lake, and campers can explore additional camping near Glendo Reservoir State Park for easier access alternatives. The $10 fee covers sites that accommodate RVs up to 65 feet, though the rough approach limits practical access for larger rigs.
Description
Four wheel drive is recommended for anyone planning to camp in Soldier Rock. Soldier Rock is a campground which has three small sections along Lakeshore Drive. Each area provides good access to the water, partially shaded campsites, and several sheltered coves which are excellent spaces for families to gather and spend a day on the lakeshore. All of the campsites in Soldier Rock are fairly primitive, without gravel camping and/or parking pads. Each site is marked by a number sign, a table, and a fire pit. Access roads to each section are narrow and poorly developed, which makes this campground suitable for smaller camping units and tents.
