We love Boulder. It is always so clean and well kept. Even though it was packed its always so quiet.

Great stay as always at Boulder. Stayed at 12 then moved to 42. 12 was beautiful and it was nice to be close to the water for fishing. 42 was great. The campers next to us hosted a chili cook off. Boulder is our favorite place. Restrooms and shower houses are always clean and well maintained.

Clean park. The cleaning crew does a remarkable job with the shower houses and bathrooms. The park rangers not sure what they do except drive around in there vehicles. Never actually see them doing anything but make an appearance once in a while. The hosts were nice and hospitable not like the prison guards up the road at Coles Creek.
