Site 37 is a good pull thru spot, although it does have a few stairs down to the picnic table.

First time here and it was spectacular. We usually stay down by Taylor Creek at rosey lane or one of the others and wanted to try something different. It was great being set off the main road and amazing views of the reservoir and mountains. Very nice spacing between sites and the bathrooms were well kept. If you need to drive to Gunnison or crested butte for anything very nice drive. Tons of great hiking and fishing as well. Campground host were wonderful and super friendly. Can’t wait to get back.
