Pawnee campground at Brainard Lake Recreation area is one of the more popular campgrounds in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. The vault toilets in my experience have always been well kept - very clean (as far as vault toilets go, at least). The campsites are also well kept, clean, and have bear boxes, BBQ grates, picnic tables, and campfire grates. The trees in the Moose loop are beautiful. Within walking distance of the campsite is Brainard Lake, where you will very often see moose grazing. There are several trails to gorgeous alpine lakes. The trail to Blue Lake may also feature moose. In the spring and summer the wildflowers along Long lake and the hike to lake Isabelle are delightful. Early in the season (which begins late June/early July) the waterfalls from Lake Isabelle and other alpine lakes are breathtaking. Note that in mid-August (roughly) Lake Isabelle is partially drained, as a private company has owned the water rights for a very long time. This is a very popular campsite, so making reservations early is the only way to go.

Restrooms were spotless, camp sites, including fire ring, table and grill were all cleaned up. Hosts were super friendly and helpful.

Beautiful camp group, well maintained and clean facilities. The host couples do a great job! Plus, you can't beat the views and hiking!
