This is an absolute gem. Free boondocking. Pit toilet and garbage dumpster. The most beautiful clear starry skies at night. We loved it here. Saw turkeys and a cow came to visit. Water was clear and beautiful. Would stay here again and again!

Beautiful and free. Although a wino had had explosive diarrhea all over the floor and toilet of the single restroom for the camp, it was an amazing place to camp. There's a swimming hole and a gorgeous waterfall. Really nicely maintained and an amazing place. Just beware the wino.

Had a lovely time, wish we could have stayed longer but, this was just our Skoolie's maiden voyage to work some of the kinks out. Definitely know what we need for the next trip to Sand Creek - to pack in more water LOL 😁! Don't let the pit toilet intimidate you, it's a lot better than most and the ample parking makes turning around a large RV or bus a breeze. Best of all folks, it's FREE CAMPING 👍

It's a fairly nice if basic camp area, more setup for tents than campers. There were already 2 campers there when I arrived, 1 maybe 16 foot and 1 big 5th wheel toy hauler with another flatbed towed behind that. Super long. Add in my 21 foot and it would be hard to get anything else in there. The entrance does involve a short but steep descent. That also means climbing out when you leave. The road is loose dirt over rock. I had to lock in 4x4 to pull Val up without spinning tires and throwing dirt. This is a free and basically undeveloped camping area. There is a solid his/hers outhouse style bathroom but that's it. The scenery is gorgeous though, and you are right next to Sand Creek. Cell service is available but spotty. There is kind of a string of these camping areas along this stretch of road, I think 4 total, so if this one is full or not to your liking you can check a little further up the road. If you're pulling something bigger, you might want to walk in and eyeball it before you drive in.
