Clean toilets. Friendly camp host. Easy access to Crested Butte at a beautiful time of year. We camped at a beautiful site amid big rocks long the base of the canyon wall. Good separation from other campers. There is easy access to the gorgeous river. But alas a busy road separates the campground from the river. We thought the noise would fade as night came on, but there was traffic both early and late. Campsites were well used, and very dusty, We did our best to block out the noise and just enjoy.

Camp host very helpful and informative of the area. For me the pull through site was convenient. Enjoyed fishing the river and Taylor reservoir. Have visited the area many times. Thanks.

Nice little campground. Incredibly clean bathrooms. Road is very close so it was a little loud one night but quiet most of the trip.

Loved this campground. Lots of shade, trees, and fishing access across the street. Very warm and welcoming camp hosts. Firewood available for purchase on site.

The camp host gave away our reserved spot

Beautiful, quiet campground! Tons of trees, large boulders/rocks, very shady. Camp hosts were very kind and helpful.

We've been back to this campground many times. Can't beat being nestled in the lodgepoles 50 yards from the Taylor River!

Very nice campground. Gates were closed for cattle but wasnt much of an inconvenience.
@Christoph47204 · Camped on Jun 23, 2025 at Campsite #10

Our camping experience at Lodgepole was good. The good included:- pleasant campground hosts- clean campgrounds because the hosts took care of the area- one good restroomThe bad included:- odd rules that say only one car and one camping unit per site (we have three brothers, all coming from different locations and so have more than one car and more than one camping unit)- the road, which lies between the campground and the Taylor River, has become pretty busy, starting at 5 am. Some of the campsites are very close to the road and there were many trucks using it (there was an issue with a bridge on another road that perhaps increased the traffic on the Taylor River road in 2024)- two older restrooms that need to be revamped

Loved being secluded among trees.
@KellyF8317137 · Camped on Jun 26, 2024 at Campsite #7
Love the location across from the beautiful Taylor River, which has a great walking path along it. Campsite and bathrooms were well kept and the host was awesome. Unfortunately, we had to share our campsite one night with a large herd of cattle who went around the fencing to graze. We tried to shoo them away but they kept coming back and eventually we gave up trying. They were loud and messy. Otherwise, it was a nice spot!

Nice little camground across from the Taylor River. Sites are reasonably spread out for a Fed campground. Camp host was nice. Two downsides. The campground is *right* off the road and the road noise is sometimes bothersome. And the vaults in the north section (site 10-15) smelled HORRIBLE. We're used to Fed and state campsite vaults but these were on another level.
@McKennaH8D5012 · Camped on Aug 18, 2023 at Campsite #7
Loved this campground! Beautiful and lots to do. There is a moderately busy road between the campground and the river but it didn't bother us. Bathrooms are clean and well maintained. Would stay again.

The river is right across the road. While there is road noise, it dies down at night. Quiet campground--very clean--and the host was out and about checking on sites regularly. Really pretty canyon.
@BrooksO4369198 · Camped on Jul 22, 2023 at Campsite #11
Nice campground and in a great location. The sites were well maintained thanks to Bob the camp host. His efforts were great considering several campers that were rude and unwilling to follow camp rules. His efforts were challenged by fisherman that used the camp facilities leaving several messes that he begrudgingly cleaned up after. Great job Bob.
@MichaelL540355 · Camped on Jul 16, 2023 at Campsite #9
Clean campsite and great camp host.
@SuzanneW467238 · Camped on Jun 23, 2023 at Campsite #7
The camp host was very friendly and helpful. We brought our 2 year old that loved playing on the boulders and playing near the river. We had a great time!
@DanD2593905 · Camped on Jun 19, 2023 at Campsite #13
Been going there for 25+ years. Always great times, great hosts!
@CarolynM710452 · Camped on Aug 14, 2022 at Campsite #13
Lovely small clean campground. I am a new camper owner and was very relieved to have an easy pull through site. Access to the campground is off a good paved road.
@ScottH7806643 · Camped on Aug 3, 2022 at Campsite #11
Beautiful campsites across from Taylor River.
@GregB6149905 · Camped on Aug 1, 2022 at Campsite #7

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.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
