Beautiful views, and so peaceful. If you’re looking to recharge and enjoy nature this is a great camping spot. Johnny’s directions were clear and helpful.

Lovely spot, despite road noise
Beautiful spot by the river. You can't see the other campsite, so it feels very private. Port-a-potty is clean and there is a trash can and firepit. Unfortunately, there is a fair amount of road noise, as the nearby road (14) is a main highway into the mountains from Ft Collins. All the other campsites in the area have the same issue as the road runs along the river. Also, June is mosquito season and it was certainly buggy!

Great little spot!
Wonderful spot! Right on the river but in a shady grove of trees. My dogs were able to run but be aware of the road behind you and up the hill. You can hear and see cars but the location is tucked in down below so it wasn't a big deal. Saw a bunch of rafters while we were fishing. Super clean bathroom and trash can up at the parking spot. Nice sandy beach with 4 chairs and a fire pit. We didn't have a big issue with bugs but bring spray. Will be back for sure!

Our first camping trip with our 2-year-old couldn't have been better thanks to this wonderful campsite! Nestled by the Poudre river, it provided a serene backdrop for our family adventure. Jonny, the host, was responsive and ensured our stay was comfortable. The site's amenities like the fire pit and picnic table made evenings cozy and enjoyable. Convenient location and a spacious site added to the privacy and ideal spot for relaxing getaway. We're already looking forward to our next visit!

I enjoyed the privacy. It did rain a little but I just continued dinner and fire. Would have been awesome for star gazing if weather had cooperated.
