Great spot to camp if you want to get off grid. Lots of trail options and scenic views. Camp host Dave was quite informative and helpful. Water was out of order when we were there but plenty of clean river water

This is a beautiful area to visit. The Hot Springs are right down the road for you to enjoy and head up the mountain to visit the historic St. Elmo. Hiking and beautiful off road trails are also around for your enjoyment.

The camp host kept everything neat and clean. A plus was that he was also very friendly. The campsites and the restrooms were both immaculate.

One of the most beautiful Campgrounds we have stayed. The Mt Views, the sound of the rushing creek. Hwy noise is not bad at all for being so close to road. Only downside was no water (Hand pump was DOA), yet they advertise that there is water.

Beautiful campground
@TaylorBD7B7FA3 · Camped on Jul 20, 2025 at Campsite #10
Location is beautiful, grounds are well-maintained and was very quiet. Will definitely return!

We always enjoy our time at Cascade Campground.....the setting is stunning. However, we were disappointed to discover when we arrived that there was not water available. There was no prior notice given.
@ChrisC9047590 · Camped on Jul 14, 2025 at Campsite #13
Love this campground and general area!
@KelseyH7238494 · Camped on Jul 11, 2025 at Campsite #13
No working well water. Semi shaded camp sites, surrounded by trees. Feels secluded. Has little pathways between all the campsites which makes it fun for kids
@Roberti7699101 · Camped on Jul 10, 2025 at Campsite #9
When I got there, my spot was occupied by a vehicle with noone in the campsite. The stated size available for an RV was not correct either given the spot was on a rather large incline. I will not trust the reservation process anymore.

Have camped at 8+ Recreation.gov campgrounds in CO and this is definitely in that top 2 of campgrounds. Was nice to have pretty poor cell reception in my opinion. A moose came through our campsite at one point! Only knock would be that stargazing is hard here because of the thick tree cover, but if you wondered to the main road, maybe by the beaver pond a quarter mile up the road, it could be much better.
@MatthewM156652 · Camped on Jun 18, 2025 at Campsite #16
Great location, camp host was very friendly. The water pump was out though, so make sure to bring lots of water along.
@Elizabeth86784 · Camped on Jun 18, 2025 at Campsite #18
No longer water here, but spacious campsite.
@LindsayB696458 · Camped on Jun 12, 2025 at Campsite #13
very nice camping, hard to get but worth the effort if you're down around Mount Princeton
@MicaelaHA58806 · Camped on Jun 4, 2025 at Campsite #20
Site was nice and spacious, our tiny camper fit in easily. Plenty of trees so the site felt fairly private. Restroom was clean, site was clean and dumpsters were available. Some road noise, but it did quiet down at night. Unfortunately, the picnic table cannot be moved.
@DeeDeeLE3B09B2 · Camped on May 30, 2025 at Campsite #19
very quiet and loved to hear the river
@TimC9142347 · Camped on May 30, 2025 at Campsite #18
Great location, quiet and lots to do in the area. Very clean restrooms!! Great hosts as well!
@DebbieC9683255 · Camped on May 27, 2025 at Campsite #10
One of our favorites for the last 45 years! Lots of hikes, St Elmo Agnes Falls, multiple nice hot springs, nearby restaurants, even shopping. Campground is not crowded and has good shade.
@NicoleB2196888 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #14
We love cascade campground! Our site was perfect (a little hard to back into with a trailer we had to pull in the opposite way). Facilities well exceptionally clean and the campground host was amazing. We will be back for sure!
@AlexN649C6C1CF · Camped on Oct 8, 2024 at Campsite #17
A very nice campground, well maintained, beautiful sunrises and sunsets over the mountains and walkable distance to Chalk lake for some gorgeous views and fishing (and a lot of Stellers Jays!)
@TimK7749908 · Camped on Sep 30, 2024 at Campsite #18
Beautiful area, only drawback was my campsite was right next to the road. Also it is a popular campground and difficult to get a reservation. There are two other campsites nearby that were closed or it would be much easier to find camping. On the more expensive side to reserve a campsite and pay the recreation.gov fee
@KatieF5720380 · Camped on Sep 28, 2024 at Campsite #20
Absolutely gorgeous! The fall colors were stunning!

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!!!
