Overnight, Seasonal, and Extended Stay Camping, we are open year-round. Many of our sites are great for stargazing, watching meteors, looking for fireflies, and seeing the birds zip on by. We have 20/30/50amp (shade and partial shade) around our lake, and in the "upper campground," and dry camping (full facilities) along the Arkansas River (Gold Medal fishing) with access for all campers for fishing and floating. We are conveniently located on Hwy 50, in Bighorn Sheep Canyon, and have all sorts of rental options for your outdoor adventure needs. Whether you want to pitch a tent, try out the glamping experience, enjoy the convenience of an RV, or rent one of our fully equipped RVs, we have the perfect spot for you. Adventure awaits with home to the highest mountain peaks in Colorado and 102 miles of Gold Medal Trout fishing.
