What others are saying about this campground
This campground is the perfect spot for a weekend getaway. Located on the gorgeous Taylor River, its only 20 minutes south of Crested Butte and sits right on the mountain bike trailhead for Doctors Park. There are 15 sites, a quarter of which are creekside and have flat spots for tents. The other sites are at the base of beautiful red rock cliffs with neighbors surrounding them. There are plenty of trees for hammocks and fire pits and tables for each site. There is no bear box, but there is a park ranger nearby. There is a mix of tent and small RV sites and the camp host is friendly. There are also huge rocks to climb and boulder on, and the 23 mile Doctors Park bike trail is a fun trail to hike or trail run. The bathrooms are not great, but the views and the peace and quiet more than make up for it.
