This area is beautiful and very easy to get to but some of the sites with the best views you will be dealing with lots of wind.  We drove a Subaru Forester and had no issues.  Arrived after a hike on Saturday and stayed the night, left early Sunday.  There are plenty of sites along the road and in the area but it does get crowded even when it's colder at night.  Some sites have fire pits but not all, and there was a fire warning while we were there.  We loved the site we had but at 10pm another car pulled in and tried setting up a massive tent in the dark and the family was screaming at eachother trying to figure it out.  I guess it didn't work out and they ended up leaving in the middle of night leaving a ton of trash behind that we ended up picking up in the morning.  Please respect the space!

This campground was my first backpacking trip and it was perfect!  There are tent sites around the whole lake with fire pits and 1 lean-to site at the end of the trail when you first arrive at the lake.  The sites are relatively flat and well shaded with trees.  Note, it can get swampy near the edge of the lake so you may want to bring bug spray.  Make sure you practice leave no trace principles and pack out what you bring in!  It does get a little crowded later in the day so you may have to share space with others and it can be a little noisy at night.

Stayed here 1 night over Memorial Day weekend (happened to get a spot!) we car camped and drove to our trail head for a hike the next morning. It was well maintained, bathrooms were clean and permit is self issued at the entrance. Some sites are closer to the road but it wasn’t too loud and mostly heard the nice creek.

Stayed here 1 night with the backcountry permit through recreation.gov to see the stars and stay the night in the dunes. The hike in over the dune to a camp site with all your gear is frankly not easy, but it's short distance so it's manageable. Climbing in the sand is challenging with the extra weight of the pack and if the wind picks up you get whipped with sand BUT it is 100% worth it. We hiked in around 5/5:30pm at the end of the heat and were set up eating dinner around 8pm. Took a lot of breaks hiking in and went through a lot of water. In total we brought about a gallon of water each, and by the time we hiked out the next morning we were down to the last couple of ounces. Just the tent, no rain fly and using our sleeping bags as quilts was perfect in June. Even if you don't camp out the dunes are open for star gazing, and I highly recommend that. I tried hiking in both sneakers and just socks. Just socks was much better keeping your feet light and reducing cramping. Note: bugs come out at dusk so be ready with lots of spray and cover your limbs and bring good sunblock, you will get toasted.

We stayed at this campsite for 2 nights and we were pleasantly surprised. We dry camped so we used the bathrooms on site, and they were clean. There are some small trails in the area but not much, and there is no cover. The campsite is well run though and it was relatively quiet with the exception of 1 or 2 groups. Also there is a free dump site which we didn't see noted util we got there. We chose this spot to be at a midpoint between Black Canyon and Crested Butte for our trip and it worked out perfectly being right off the main road.
