The facility had neat restrooms, warm bathing facilities, and a welcoming team. These were the only reasons I gave it a one-star rating; otherwise, it would have been a zero-star review. The campsite's proximity to Leadville was another plus. My spouse participated in the Leadville Heavy Half on June 17th, 2023, and the availability of showers influenced our decision to lodge here. Regrettably, the campsites are closely packed. The fire pits are spaced 18 feet apart and some are communal, serving two campsites. If you are comfortable with your neighbor acknowledging your sneeze, then you might enjoy this place. There were numerous 'out of order' signs and the recreation hall was non-existent. The supposed store was merely a tiny souvenir shop. I suspect this place serves as a summer refuge for snowbirds, acting as a base camp. It probably had its heyday in the 70s.

A lot of pros to the cons I’ve seen on other reviews! Pros -clean facilities -laundry -very kind and helpful staff -pul through sites that have concrete levelers Cons -small sites -dusty and sandy -no Wi-Fi (but who cares look at the view!) Easy access to Turquoise Lake, twin lakes and the city of Leadville! Many different types of camping available including A couple of very nice cabins Tent camping sites are wooded and just beautiful! Plenty of activities, trails. Propane fill up station BEAUTIFUL VIEWS We eloped in twin lakes and sugar loafin was the perfect spot. Close to turquoise lake, twin lake and the town of Leadville!!

Do yourself a favor and don’t do it! This place has seen years of neglect. If I could give it zero stars, I would. The minute we pulled in we knew we had made a mistake. We booked 6 months ago for a one week stay. When we arrived, we were shown to a site where sewer was overflowing, and were told there had been a problem with sewer and they couldn’t get anyone to come out and fix it. Really? No one could call us? This place is in serious need of attention....like a bulldozer. The only good thing I can say is they gave us a refund on our stay. We had to drive another hour to find someplace else.

It’s October so there wasn’t a lot of tent campers which meant the site we were at seemed fairly secluded, however, I wouldn’t want to be here when it’s busy. Camp sites are directly on top of one another. Each tent site is maybe 10 feet from the other with 6 sites squeezed into a very small space. No water at sites. And 35 bucks to tent camp is a bit obnoxious. Not to mention, that is a discounted flat rate due to the time of year. Apparently, sites are closer to 45-46 bucks a night. Pros are GREAT cell phone service and super close to gas station, twin lakes, And you can have a legal fire even with the fire ban. It’s meh...

This campground has been enjoyed for the most part for years. Here is a list of positives and some upgrades are needed for better enjoyment! We hope that this will help future travelers plan better. Positives- Clean bathrooms/laundry Easy access to Turquoise Lake and the city of Leadville! Many different types of camping available including A couple of very nice cabins Tent camping sites are wooded and just beautiful! Plenty of activities, trails. Propane fill up station Nice Dumping station Beautiful place to spend time with the family in a proper site. The improvements needed- Some RV lots are not made for 30 ft. Long campers. Lots 7,8,9 are just too small. My advice to fellow travelers is to go and visit the sites before purchasing. Had we known, we would’ve booked a bigger site earlier. Our hitch was in line with the road. Most of the RV sites have mud puddles. When trying to back up onto leveling blocks, they sink and slide. Had a hard time getting our rig set. We were thankful to have brought a large mat for outside of door, but shoes were drenched/muddy from time to time. The upgrade SUGGESTIONS would be to sand, gravel and railroad tie level pads As best as possible to park the RV on most sites. Bathrooms need to be updated to comply with ADA. No access for anyone with a wheelchair stall. It’s a common courtesy. This campground is very much enjoyed, but hope to see in the future a few changes to make camping a lot easier to set up! Less frustration!
