Hinman Park Campground is a hidden gem nestled along USFS Road 440E in Clark, Colorado. This lesser-known campground provides a tranquil escape for those seeking a peaceful outdoor experience away from the crowds. Surrounded by scenic beauty and situated near popular trails, Hinman Park offers a mix of rustic charm and basic amenities.
While Hinman Park Campground is not highly developed, it provides an authentic camping experience at an affordable rate of $10 per night. The lack of modern facilities emphasizes its rustic nature and appeals to those looking for a simpler outdoor adventure.
Campers have noted that while the campground has seen better days in terms of maintenance, it remains a worthwhile alternative to more crowded nearby campgrounds like Seedhouse. Many appreciate its seclusion and proximity to hiking trails, making it ideal for those who prefer nature over noise.

I’m kept campground. Tall weeds everywhere never seen a weed eater. Picnic tables so old afraid to sit in and get splinters. Oldest pit toilets I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen hundreds. No water really no water! Approximately 10 sites with fire rings. Some traffic noise. 10$ nightly. Notice that they want to raise the fee, question is what have they been doing with the 10$ fee the last 10 years certainly not putting it back in maintenance. I would not stay again.
Secluded off of USFS 440, past the trailhead for S. Fork of the Elk. Seems everyone camps at Seedhouse and goes right past this one, it's a little known spot. Spaced out sites with some cover and privacy, definitely worth checking out as an alternative to the packed Seedhouse campground!
Amazing place. Very clean and accessable. Bring a pop up though. Not much shade
Usually not crowded even when lots of others are. We love boondocking and this is the perfect spot.
Nice campground. Easy access over mostly paved roads. No water. Put toilets could use a refresh but not the worst I’ve seen.
