The campground was nice! I just wouldnt recommend site #11 due to the slant, it was so tricky finding a spot for our tent. There wasnt any ideal / flat areas at this site.

@JohnnyT9ACA8C1 · Camped on May 16, 2025 at Campsite #17

Sites 17 & 18 were very close. Limited cell signal. Water is not nearby as the pictures would lead you to believe. Pads are very unlevel. Very quiet overall, camp hosts were kind.

@MatthewD639755 · Camped on Sep 27, 2024 at Campsite #8

One of our favorite campsites. Enough space between neighbors and clean bathrooms.

@JohnW4841416 · Camped on Sep 26, 2024 at Campsite #15

The campground itself was very nice and a great spot for the 4 families that met for a great weekend. The camp hosts were very nice and had great information about the area around the campground. The driveway to the site we originally made a reservation for was graded in a very steep V, which made it impossible for us to back our trailer into. It was also billed as handicap accessible, which was an absolute joke. The picnic table wouldn't qualify as handicap accessible, and it would be possible for anyone in a standard wheelchair, or issues with mobility to get out and walk around the campground. Again, the area was beautiful and the campground in a great area with a lot of access to great outdoor activities. But there's some definitely some work that can be done to make this campground great!

Not our absolute favorite campground but not the worst either. Cons:- Bathrooms dont have any cleaning logs, smelled bad, and had dead flies everywhere for days- No bear lockers- Quiet hours were not enforced - Road to reservoir was right next to the site so you heard the traffic consistentlyPros:- RIGHT next to 11 Mile Canyon which was absolutely incredible. Happy to spend the whole day there! - Backed up to lots of forest areas to explore- Nice fire pits and picnic tables - two great hiking trails around

@LillianCB4B319 · Camped on Aug 11, 2024 at Campsite #5

It was our first time camping in this area and our site provided all that we needed. The location was good allowing us to visit the Florissant National Monument. I am so glad that got protection status. There seem to be a good number of trails in this area but our time limits did not allow for hiking. After seeing the lay of the land I will opt for another site with more space for tents.

@KellieM5594134 · Camped on Jul 12, 2024 at Campsite #13

Nice area here and very quiet. Bathroom needs to clean and the floor is dirty.

@StevenD7765858 · Camped on Jun 28, 2024 at Campsite #6

Well run campground. Clean. Sites spaced out. Great little trail system.

@catherine10371 · Camped on May 24, 2024 at Campsite #16

Campground was quiet and the hosts did a nice job keeping the restrooms clean. We were at site 16 and we had plenty of shade and convenient trees to hang our hammocks. We had 2 vehicles and a popup camper; we were able to get all three on the driveway but it was close quarters. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back!

@BrandyH3435734 · Camped on Sep 15, 2023 at Campsite #9

We reserved 4 spots (9-12) at Blue Mountain for the 3rd weekend in Sept. It was amazing. The sites are open and roomy with plenty of places to pitch tents. We had a group of 15 between the 4 sites and it worked out perfect for us. Site 10 ended up being the "home base" where we all congregated and it worked out well. The campground was full for the weekend, but due to the way it's laid out and the size of the sites, it didn't feel full. The camp host was very friendly and helpful. If I had to complain about anything, I would say that the way that some of the parking spots are positioned in relation to the road make it difficult to back in, but it certainly wasn't a huge issue. I will definitely be camping here again.

@MeganH3711255 · Camped on Sep 8, 2023 at Campsite #9

Very clean bathrooms and sites

@StephenP202589 · Camped on Aug 4, 2023 at Campsite #5

Well maintained campground with huge spots, tons of big trees, and clean bathrooms.

@AlyssaOB59042B · Camped on Jul 21, 2023 at Campsite #18

This was a great little spot. The actual site #18 was a good spot with a couple of flat spots to set up our tents and enough parking to get 2 or 3 cars in. The firepit has a metal grate over the top which made it easy for cooking our food/boiling water. There's a lot of trees around for shade. There is only one vault toilet and one water pump for the whole campground. The toilet was a quick 1-minute walk from site #18 and was one of the cleanest, least-gross smelling vault toilets I've seen while camping before so that was great. There is also a dumpster next to it for disposing of your trash which was nice to not have to drag it back home with us. The water pump was by the entrance of the camp, so a little bit of a disadvantage if you're trying to fill a jug to bring back to your campsite. I'd recommend driving to it so you aren't carrying heavy buckets/jugs of water back to the campsite. There is a staff campsite by the entrance if you have any issues or need to buy firewood. The campground is close to a mercantile if you need to buy more ice or something that you forgot. It's also not that far of a drive to Eleven Mile which made for a great lake day. Although we camp to get away from city life, there is cell phone reception if you need it. I have Xfinity Mobile and had 4 bars. I would definitely recommend this campground to friends and return in the future.

@KennethB453248 · Camped on Jul 11, 2023 at Campsite #18

Left early due to loud, rude neighbors. Site is listed as a handicapped accessible spot, but had to dig a 12 inch hole for the left trailer wheel and had to prop up the right side by several inches, too difficult to get in an out of the trailer.

@SimoneOE765F64 · Camped on Jul 10, 2023 at Campsite #16

This is a great campground. It’s small and quiet. The only complaint I have is the water pump near site 17 is not functioning and it’s a long walk to the other pump. We usually bring our own water up as the well water is also not treated. The trail within the campground to the lookout is an easy trail with high rewards at the end.

@Christoph37654 · Camped on Jul 9, 2023 at Campsite #6

Definitely love the area. The campsites could use more flat areas for tents. The drive to Florissant is close to get groceries. The general store on your way into the campground is nice but closes early.

@EdwardL5038090 · Camped on Jun 29, 2023 at Campsite #17

Sits not ideal for RVs, we have a 22foot trailer to level lots of blocks. Also road in ruff.

@AngelaH869D51B · Camped on Jun 25, 2023 at Campsite #4

Beautiful area. Everything was great, except that we were right across from the camp host and their generator came on a lot and it was loud. But other than that, it was a great spot..

@SteveH6337222 · Camped on Jun 4, 2023 at Campsite #12

Many sites need re-grading to make them flat and easily usable. The Forest Service has done little-to-no maintenance on this campground in recent years.

@KrisJA89F34792 · Camped on Jun 2, 2023 at Campsite #10

Love this campground - third year in a row that we have three generations meet to kick off camping session!

@CorrieA0F4F456 · Camped on May 31, 2023 at Campsite #6

Beautiful campground! We had a bunch of deer walk past our campsite one night. Definitely recommend!

@SerenaB0F14215 · Camped on May 26, 2023 at Campsite #19

We enjoyed exploring the surrounding area.

@DebraL9946507 · Camped on May 19, 2023 at Campsite #8

Site #8 was large and shady; the picnic table and fire pit were up a slight hill from the trailer. Due to rain, there were a lot of no shows which meant the bathroom were not heavily used; the dirt roads were passable; the camp host was nice. Make sure to visit Florissant Fossil Beds Visitor Center and there are many great hikes nearby.

@KennethB453248 · Camped on Aug 15, 2022 at Campsite #12

Great place to camp, not very crowded and no dust like Riverside Campground. Sites 12 and 17 are the most level, the others require some leveling blocks.

@AlyK8620771 · Camped on Aug 8, 2022 at Campsite #6

My friends and I came up for a camping trip right before we all left for college and had the most fantastic time. Our campsite was amazing, the bathrooms were clean and Nyla (I hope I’m spelling it right) the person helping run the place was incredible. She was super sweet and made sure we were all set up. If you’re looking for a good place to camp I highly recommend!

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

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
