Fantastic campsite

Great campsite. I had it all to myself, but it’s fantastic for larger groups with multiple vehicles. There are multiple fire pits, including a very large one. At least two picnic tables. Superb views, superb privacy. Best visited with high clearance vehicles.

Be Careful

Never found the site. GPS took me in through HWY 160 and 30+ miles down a dirt and rocky road and said I arrived at the location. It was supposed to be the property entrance and he said to go up the hill to the right for hillside? And left to Dry Creek. Got lost for about 45 minutes and left so I wouldn’t get stuck in the dark. Owner kind of blamed me and didn’t seem to care. Drove an hour and had to stay at a motel after paying for 2 nights.

The nearby mountains were a bit of a disappointment. We didn’t know they were all privately owned. Other than that, this site is EXACTLY what I would look for when camping! I absolutely loved roughing it in the beautiful state of Colorado!
