• Notes
  • This is a quiet park! The camping area is in a bit of a hollow and surrounded by trees.
  • The office closes at 5PM and the gate at 10PM so the traffic is minimal.
  • We’re certain the noise and activity will pick up during the ‘camping season’ and on weekends in the summer.
  • The area has some nice trails to and around Sand Creek
  • The spaces are primarily ‘back-in’ with a chart that shows the max length for the pad chosen.
  • Two bathhouses and one handicap accessible.
    • The bathhouses and shower areas were kept clean!
