Lots of other campers playing loud music, lots of loud music and engines revving late into the night. No sense of privacy or peacefulness whatsoever.

It was clean, weather was great, beautiful environment.

This is a nice campground. The host Fernando was SO friendly and polite. He keeps the bathrooms so clean. We were impressed. There are UTVs but it was not as loud as we expected. Great launching location to lots of trails and hiking.

Nice area close to Denver. Amazingly quiet for a busy holiday weekend. The camp host is awesome and the bathrooms are the cleanest I've experienced in quite awhile!

Clean campground. We have stayed several times here. Just be aware that this campground is close to a popular front range ATV/ OHV entry point, so you can expect occasional ATV sounds. Some ATV'ers camp at Columbine, but many more park just past the cemetaries down the hill and use the road to get to the cut-off trail for ATV's. On weekends especially you should expect noise! Almost without exception, the ATV'ers are respectful and slow inside the campground, but once ouside Columbine proper, they can be heard on the road.

Such a cute campground! Close to the city but then far enough into the mountains. Camp host was super sweet and campground owner is super cool!
@KristinC611611 · Camped on Jun 1, 2025 at Campsite #12
We went on a very quiet weekend. Peaceful, clean, overall great experience.
@RudyR792BC2381 · Camped on May 16, 2025 at Campsite #13
The current camphost was friendly and kept sites clean..way better than previous host whom was rude and did not keep sites clean and put up fake reservation tags on every site
@CharlesM934555 · Camped on Sep 20, 2024 at Campsite #14
Campground hosts were very friendly and helpful. There was a bit of noise from the nearby ATV trails and parking lot, but not a lot. ATV traffic in the campground is limited.
@DanielleHAF02F · Camped on Sep 13, 2024 at Campsite #4
Camp hosts were very thoughtful and nice. Campground looked great. We would definitely recommend.
@BrookeM2C4FBC1 · Camped on Jul 19, 2024 at Campsite #14
Camp site was not very spread out. Family next to us set their tent up very close (Less than 10 feet) to our tent, we could literally hear them snoring and had a difficult time falling asleep. We also were not aware of how close we would be to the bathrooms. Campsite was located right across from the bathrooms. The smell was not pleasant especially in the morning. Families next to our tent would walk through our site to get to the bathroom instead of walking out of their site and around. Glad we tried it, but will most likely not come back.

My grandson and I camped during the week so it was pretty quiet, not many campers. Campground was clean, bathrooms ran out of tp, but other than than it was a great experience!
@CaraO13BFC0B33 · Camped on Jul 3, 2024 at Campsite #21
Great spot!
@MelinSit1C300A · Camped on May 17, 2024 at Campsite #24
I like this campground also I like my campsite, the only thing I didn't like is all the ATV running around the campground driven by the kids which is I'm they sure it's against the law make the noises. The dirt roads make it even worst with ATV... so dusty. And also some of them playing music so loud .I guess the camp host should be more aware and pay attention of this and do the checking more often. Other than that.. it's all good.
@GregoryD246439 · Camped on Aug 29, 2023 at Campsite #19
Stayed Tues - Thurs (2 nights). Campground was nearly empty & very quiet. Best time of week to be there if you can schedule that. It was nice to find that they have faucets with potable water.
@AndrewS4701634 · Camped on Aug 27, 2023 at Campsite #4
Beautiful campground! The host Damon is attentive to the needs of the campers, campground and the general positive energy and environment of the place! Cleanest bathrooms and campground I general that I have stayed at in a very long time. The lake is a short hike away and absolutely stunning with the views and wildlife! I will definitely be coming back to this campground and hopefully will be able to stay at whatever campground Damon gets to host next!
@CarlyR9953A1F0 · Camped on Aug 19, 2023 at Campsite #25
Very clean campground, especially the bathrooms! The camp host was friendly and accommodating. Lots of 4x4 trails all around so it goes without saying this may not be the quiet escape you are looking for during the day. Stay the trail.
@JennellC926423 · Camped on Aug 18, 2023 at Campsite #5
Great small campground. close to a lot of entertainment. The restrooms were wonderfully maintained.
@ChristinaD0E9D · Camped on Jul 23, 2023 at Campsite #6
We went not on a weekend, so there were only a few people there. The host was a great person to talk to and he did a wonderful job of keeping the bathrooms VERY clean.
@JenniferF67302 · Camped on Jul 7, 2023 at Campsite #13
The camp host was great and everything was very clean. Probably one of the cleanest and most enjoyable visits we've had
@JenniferF67302 · Camped on Jul 7, 2023 at Campsite #12
Everything was very clean compared to past visit. Also the camp host was very friendly
@TinaM2263354 · Camped on Jun 30, 2023 at Campsite #23
Decent sites, most of them aren’t too close together (for a FS campground). The bathrooms were clean/ had TP, the host was friendly and helpful. The downside to this CG is that it is close to a lot of ATV/motorbike trails, which seems like a fun time, however lots of loud vehicles and clueless parents that let their kids tear thru the CG doing lap after lap on their motorized vehicles. Makes things dusty, loud and not the safest for dogs and small kids. I was there on a holiday weekend, to make things worse, and also encountered loud groups blasting music and having way more than 8 ppl per site. I would try this spot again for a non-holiday stay, enjoyed the proximity to good mtn biking and Blackhawk/Central City.

Nice campground for tents and small RVs. Tough for larger rigs. Our site (18) was supposed to be for a 40 ft trailer with 2 vehicles. Not even remotely - we have a 27 ft and could barely get in the site with our truck parked sideways almost in the road. We had a hard time getting in and out of the site. We weren't the only ones. Most of the sites have level areas for a tent, but took quite a bit of leveling for our travel trailer.
But - the campsite was awesome. Our site backed up to woods with a lot of trees. Almost all the sites had a lot of shade, a fire pit and a small bbq suitable for small amount of charcoal.

This was a great campground! The site we had was more secluded and plenty of shade to relax in!
@BrianJ9078626 · Camped on Jun 21, 2023 at Campsite #21
Park manager was super nice, very clean restrooms. Amazing tasting water (very glad we could get fresh water to drink). We had deer walk right behind our site and a friendly Raven and a cool looking Stellers Jay (bird) keeping us company!

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
