Based upon our site, #25, we are very pleased with this park. We don't have a lot of room to set up chairs, but sufficient for the two of us. We are right on the lovely clear water creek.

Based upon our site, #25, we are very pleased with this park. We don't have a lot of room to set up chairs, but sufficient for the two of us. We are right on the lovely clear water creek. From I-70, you go through a lot of residential area before coming to the canyon that houses the campground. That means it is away from any highway noise...yes!!! The staff was helpful and guided us to our site and made sure we got backed in. They are big enough sites for larger rigs but not the easiest to get into, so the help was appreciated. It appears the other non-creek side sites are more typical of RV parks, but the creek side ones are delightful. Very well kept-up with gravel and bark covering most dirt area. The Wi-Fi was one of the best we've had but for cell service, we had to drive about 2 miles back toward town to get out of the canyon. Warning: If you are planning to go to Aspen and the Maroon Bells, the info we got was incorrect. We read that you had to have a reservation for parking between the hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. but before or after you could just drive in. We left the campground at 6 a.m. and got to the Marron Bells around 7:20 (lots of commuter traffic). But we were turned away and told we'd have to take the shuttle bus. The gate guard said one needs a reservation before 8 a.m. or after 5 p.m. but the rest of the day (8 a.m. -5 p.m.) the road is closed to all traffic except the shuttle bus. We were miffed and it was too early for anything in Aspen to be open.

The sites are tight but we didn’t mind. We were right on the water. Site was a gravel lot which was pretty level. The laundry area was nice, cell service was great, and staff was friendly! We would have enjoyed a longer stay!

Very pretty location but the sites are small and we were very close to everyone. All of the staff we met were very nice and helpful. The price is good and we’d stay again if we could pick our site.

Great location on what is currently a pretty good size river, usually a creek I believe. Helpful staff, great facilities, and just about two or 3 miles outside a really cool town… The pizza place is amazing right on the little downtown strip
If we are passing through this way again, we’re going to stop there for sure.

We love this park. Staff are so helpful. A river runs through the park and sounds so relaxing. Surrounded by trees and mountains. Clean and well maintained. They also have small cabins for people who don’t RV. We plan on returning.

Lots of trees. If you can, get a site by the creek. Very quiet. Love being away from the highway. I highly recommend! Cell service for Verizon is not very good due to mountains.

Elk Creek Campground is being revamped and while I didn't stay there before the new owners took over, I can tell they are putting their hearts and sweat into making this campground a place you never want to leave. Currently, things are being turned around. They are super accommodating and very helpful.
Bathrooms were always clean.
Some sites have good cell service, mine did. WIFI is typical of a campground but I was able to work off it while I was there including joining a Zoom conference in the morning. Later in the day when everyone was there things slowed down.
Sites are currently a little wonky in spots but I've been told they plan to revamp the layout and add more trees which is awesome.

We didn’t take many pictures but simply enjoyed our spot by the stream.
Cell service was not so great, but in the mountains, that is no surprise.

They provide Wi-Fi bits it’s very spotty and drops often. The sites are nice. They are mostly dirt with some gravel. Mostly level. We didn’t have too hard of a time getting our travel trailer level. The hosts are very kind and accommodating. Would stay here again.
