I have stayed at Bellaire Lake campground many times. Very disappointing that the well ran out and the bathrooms were closed and having to drive to Dowdy Lake to get water was inconvenient. I appreciate the discount on my stay. As Bellaire lake otherwise is a great place to stay.

Not having a camp host was such an awful experience. People parked in our site and refused to leave. We showed them the reservation on our phone. They finally moved. Having an outhouse instead of the bathroom open was awful.

No water kind of put a damper but overall we will keep coming there. We love the smaller campground without a bunch of people.

While there wasn’t any water, the campground was still very accommodating. It’s always clean and welcoming. We had a wonderful stay.

We hadn't been up to Red Feather to camp event hough we've lived in CO for 10 years, and what an amazing find! The spaces were nicely spread out, the bathrooms clean (and what a surprise, they actually had flushing toilets and sinks!) and the walk to the lake was perfect! We will be back again for sure!
