Jumbo Campground

In
Grand Mesa National Forest
21 sites ¡ RV, Tent

Colorado’s Grand Mesa is the land of a bajillion lakes.

Okay, so maybe it’s closer to 300. Either way, that’s a lot of lakes to camp out at! Jumbo Campground is one of your many choices, and it’s an excellent one at that. You’ll find this piece of paradise in between Jumbo and Sunset Lakes, and it boasts helpful camp amenities like large aspen and spruce trees (yay shade!). But the best feature of all? Most of the campsites have lovely views of the lakes. The sites are snuggled up close to each other, but the landscape is hilly enough to give y’all some privacy. You know, for those late-night campfire singalongs.

Lakeside Camping, Water Time :)

7 sites ¡ RVs, Tents22 acres ¡ Clifton, CO
We moved here in 1997 The home has had major remodels done on it. The lake is an old gravel pit to make road base for local road construction. The buoys in the lake are scuba projects from the local college CMU, and hold lots of fish. Other nesting platforms are for our local Geese and they hatch out in April-June. We airbnb 2 rooms in our home as a shared facility and have airbnbs in Northern Ca and Baja. Our home is off limits for campers as we need to respect the space for our other airbnb guests. But in an emergence please call, cell service works fine. port-a potty is gone for the winter November-April. port-a potty is clean and works great, May- Oct. If you are here in the winter you may use the trees or Mavericks gas station in 1.5 miles away. The first two pets are included at no additional cost. For any additional pets beyond the first two, there is a fee of $10 per pet, per night. Please make sure to add the Pet fee extra accordingly.
