This is a cute and well-used campground. There is a small fee per night. Each campsite has a fire pit and a bear box. There is a bathroom available. The campsite is near a few incredible and scenic trails; the South Fork Springs Cave trail is a shorter hike with some inclines to a cave. There is also a trail that follows along the White River. You don't have to rent a campsite to park here. This area is best to visit from late spring to early fall.

Great clean campground. No established firepit so during the fireban we couldn't have a fire. But there might be other spots with established fire pits. Not too crowded even though we were by several roads.

Normally not very crowded and clean facilities. Glad to see spring cave is open again and there is a ranger there to give great tours!

A good taste of colorado nature. You will see elk on the drive in. The hike is relatively easy for the first 4 miles, with a few turns down to the river for some fishing. You can also fish right there at the trailhead. There are also vault bathrooms. Very Much worth the drive.
