What a wonderful little spot by the creek! It was quiet, and the restrooms were spotless and everyone was really respectful of the grounds.

Loved our site- site 12. Right on the creek. You can hear the highway from this campground, but not from the sites on the river like ours. Very quiet campground, nice camp host. Fun to be near Vail! Pretty campsite!

My reserved campsite (#12) had been given to someone without a reservation. When I arrived at 4:00 pm, a camper was on the site but they were away. The host refunded my reservation payment in cash and apologized. So I left and cant recommend this campground.

The bathrooms were very well-kept. The site was clean. The site host was friendly.

Reserved campsite #12 at Gore Creek. Received a voicemail from campground host afternoon before reservation start date that site was closed by National Forest Service due to safety concerns with the potential for trees dropping into the site and injuring campers. Understand the circumstances but did not receive an email notification from recreation.gov until the day AFTER my reservation started that the site needed to be vacated same day. Was placed into another site upon arrival by the campground host (Lauren) - kuddo's to her in taking the initiative to assist displaced campers. Tried calling the NF regional office for information and could not get a response - line was always busy. Campground Host gets an 'A+', the Forest Service gets an 'F' for their general level of incompetence related to their poor 'closure' and communications plan.

Site 12 has great access to gore creek. We hung out in the creek a lot and hiked upstream with no one else around. There is good separation between sites. The bathroom are super clean and surprisingly had 2 ply tp. It is close to Vail and the highway, but you dont hear that. Unfortunately, unless we were in the creek, you can hear construction of an on ramp very close during the day. Trucks backing up beeps. Hopefully that project doesn't last too long. Also had a lot of flys during day at the end of July, but at least they don't bite.

There is a lot of Freeway noise at this campground - the most I've ever experienced. That being said, the sites along the creek are not so bad because the noise of the creek drowns out the freeway noise as well as any noise from other campers. Everything was clean and well kept. Very nice to have bear boxes. Hiking and biking right from the campground was great.
