The site is exquisite. The photos attached show what it looks like waking up at 7am and opening up the tent from the most upper campsite. across the river, there's a path for the animals traveling along. some people have spotted moose. I spotted a couple deer while we were here. The camp hosts are absolutely phenomenal. They sell firewood there as well. You should prefer to buy from the site you stay at. It's about an hour from Denver, so super convenient, very beautiful, and easily accessible. The ground is all gravel rocks and dirt. Lots of different kinds of ants, but they're sparse at the sites. They tend to stay away from people. Overall, it's an amazing experience and we'll be back as often as possible :)

Attendant on site. Restroom, grills and camping sites available. There is a parking fee. A daily parking fee is $7.00 an overnight parking fee i believe is $22.00. The highway above is not loud at all. Beautiful views.
