Flatiron Reservoir Campground

Bit tricky to reserve. I got charged twice by the online reservations, and I'll have to sort that out. Location is beautiful. Campground Host is not the most welcoming or helpful, so keep expectations on the low side

Overall a well kept campground, the rangers are very friendly and welcoming! Beautiful small lake, great for catching small lake trout. Several picnic shelters, a clean bathroom, an unbelievable sunset over the lake one night. This year there was a lot of broken glass on the bank making it really hard to feel safe letting kids/dogs play. Nice campground but you are not in a secluded area. The construction this year also went all night which made sleeping a challenge for a lot of adults, kids played hard enough they didn't mind. Book early if you want to camp here. Day use is available.

The campground is well maintained but there's not much to do here. There's no swimming, boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, etc. on the lake, so it's really only good for bird watching, fishing, and scenery. The shores are muddy and the water level fluctuates throughout the day. There's also currently construction on a nearby dam, which is interesting to watch from afar, but means it's rarely fully peaceful. There are really no hiking or biking trails from here either. We rode to the nearby Windjammer and general store (thanks only to ebikes due to the monster hill) but found them both closed on Mon & Tue. Also, TMO and VZN coverage is barely existent and channel scan didn't pickup any TV at all. Take a book, a fishing pole, or go intending to spend time exclusively with friends or family.

Beautiful small lake nestled in between tall hills. We winter camped here and had a blast. I like that the campsites have a special gravel, so there were no mud issues that we usually have during nice days in the winter. One thing that could be improved: the sites could be more level. I was up at the top of my wheel leveler. We will definitely be back and try it during the summer.

Beautiful place to camp. The view was spectacular! It rained most of the time we were there. So couldn't explore much. But will definitely come back in the warmer season to camp and explore.
