Beautiful, wide open spaces. The dog off-leash area is huge. Its not enclosed like a dog park. Theres a fence along the road, but for the most part youre relying on voice control for your dog.The lake is pretty, but its off-limits to people and pets. We just enjoyed the view from the top of the hill. The nature center was closed when we went (on a Sunday), but the pollinator garden was still open and buzzing with activity.Pun fully intended.

The RV spots are first-come, first-serve. We paid $22 per night for 2 nights. No hookups although they have a water hose near the restrooms/shower with potable water.We stayed near the end of July and the weather was cooling off a bit so we didnt need to run the generators much. We used the outdoor shower behind the restrooms and it worked fine. At least you have a great view while youre showering off.Good access to Denver and Boulder from here.

Very pretty. Nice wildlife. I worry what was near there tho Rocky Flats. A VERY questionable place

We enjoyed renting Kayaks this summer to use on Standley Lake. They have a little docking area for boats as well. The only bummer is that you have to pay to enter the park on this side. So we paid for parking, and then paid to rent the kayaks. But we had a fun time out on the water.

Overall a nice lake area but unless you are coming for a day visit with some paddle boards or to camp there isnt too much to do.

Had a nice easy walk by the shore - it doesn’t seem like you can walk around the whole lake so we just turned around and found another path. Saw some fishermen and boat docks too.

Love kayaking on the lake. Fun dirt trails for bicycling. And the nature center is small, but nice, with cam of bald eagle nest.

Had a great time camping here. Very nice view of the lake and the mountains. $22 for a spot with no hook ups. They have boat rentals and lots of wildlife all around. Would definitely recommend. They also have tipis you can stay in.

Rangers Mike & Taylor went above and beyond to recover my Basenji, Malcolm I dont know where to start but to make a long story short the Park Rangers were more than willing to help find my find my dog. He was hiding out on the dam and they were able to get him chased into a neighborhood and, with the help of a homeowner, catch and hold him until I could get there. They were always responsive to my calls and good to communicate what was going on. I cant thank them enough for the help!

Camped here for a night with some friends. I was pleasantly surprised that it doesn’t feel like you’re in the middle of Westminster in the camping area, it’s pretty quiet and there’s a great view of the foothills. The park staff were friendly and bathroom facilities are nice. looked like there were plenty of open sites on a Saturday. I live close and will probably be back. Great alternative to some of the busier mountain campgrounds that need to be reserved months in advance

Just stayed here for 8 days while visiting Colorado! Great campground with very friendly staff. Campground was nice and quiet at night and monitored by a security guard. Hookups or at least a dump station would be nice but they do have a spot to fill your water tank. The views and the lake is very beautiful. This was a nice central location so we could drive to the mountain towns.

Camped here for two night was a great experience. The rangers were friendly and made their rounds to insure all was good. The have RV spaces available as well as ample tent camping. There is a bald eagle nesting ground to the north only viewable from the water. Would highly recommend this place for a quick getaway.

Safe. You can have your pet on a leash. No alcohol or drug use of any kind allowed, which is good for a family atmosphere. There are teepees you can rent, RV stations, showers, paddle boats. They used to allow swimming but a certain kind of mullosk invaded, so they dont let you swim anymore. Rangers come check to see if you need firewood or other. Good place for peace.

No electric, water, or sewer at sites. No alcohol allowed on premises. The sites are close and they are not angled so your view walking out of your RV is of other RVs. No tree cover. Not flat. Great view of the reservoir is a plus.

Great place to boondock, as there are no hoockups at the park. Views are great and the sports are quite large so one is not on top of other campers. The facilities are sufficient, and there are several around the campsite. I would reccomend it but be prepared to run your generator for your RV when the temp are too hot.

Review №38

Horrible Service, people drinking even though no drinking rule in effect RIGHT IN FRONT OF PARK OFFICIALS. Literally ran by a bunch of douche teenagers who probably just get high instead of work as the entry gate smelled like pot. nobody could answer a simple question for me and had to call the main office 3 different times. didnt even stay because not only is the service trash but the campsites also resembled the work ethic of this campground= Poor. wouldnt even give one star and if I could I would ask for this place to find new ownership/management.

Do not go here if you plan on letting your dog even get close to the water. With no warning, I received a $120 fine after being here for 10 minutes because my dog was standing at the edge of the lake with her paws in the water.
