Our families have lots of small children, and this was the perfect location. There are plenty of picnic tables, grills, restrooms, and a pavilion area with covered picnic tables. The playground area is huge! It has both a large playset for older kids, and a smaller one for toddlers. There is also a paved path around the lake that you can walk/bike on.

We stayed in Breckenridge for a three day weekend and hit up this park all three days. Another great thing about this park is that you're right on Blue River walking path so you can enjoy walking along the path afterwards.

(we did, there was an accident and there aren't really alternative ways to get this way so you're stuck sitting & waiting) The video you have to watch was short and painless. It still amazed me how much of other people's stuff I found laying around. Gloves, ear phones. Like people tuck your stuff away securely, lol. It's pretty simple! I'd highly recommend coming on a weekday or off peak time when you can get more slides down. I can't even imagine what it'd have been like on a peak time weekend. It takes awhile to wait in line to go down and going back up the conveyor (that you can't move or walk on, you just stand and let it go at its own speed). Really fun time and not too death defying!! Pretty views too, obviously.

This is a little local gem! We were staying in Colorado Springs and drove the Breckenridge for the…read moreday. Our kiddos wanted to sled somewhere and this is a perfect spot! They have a beautiful dog park attached. There are tables under the pavilion for the ones watching their family sled. The bathrooms are clean for being at a public facility. They do have a small shed with sleds for anyone that needs them. I would suggest to take your own though if it's busy. The only thing I would suggest is a hot chocolate/coffee truck selling hot drinks.

Great views at this park, nice trails too. Has pickleball, playground, tennis, and trails. Short…read morewalk from the Marriott!

July 24, 2026 - Silverthorne, CO…read more We first stayed at Heaton Bay Campground about seven years ago, so we were looking forward to camping right along the water again. Unfortunately, because of the severe drought and low winter snowpack, Dillon Reservoir is currently about 20 feet below its normal level. Our campsite was no longer waterfront, but we had a short hike down to what is now more like a small pond. There are a few more drawbacks, too. There isn't a nearby dump station or an RV water fill, although there are water spigots for filling jugs. Campfires were prohibited during our stay because of the high fire danger, and you can hear some traffic noise from the nearby highway. Even with those disappointments, I still give this campground five stars. Why? Because, the campsites themselves are outstanding. They're spacious, private, and thoughtfully laid out, with plenty of room between sites. The views of the surrounding mountains are absolutely spectacular, and the campground has a peaceful, wooded setting that's hard to beat. If you're looking for a scenic campground with large sites and don't mind the lack of full amenities, Heaton Bay is an excellent choice. We'd happily stay here again.

New management just took over and disappointed in the changes they have made. It's a beautiful site…read moreand great location but the one star is due to management. They will not let you will up your RV with water although it says you can on their website. Make sure you fill up before getting to the campsite. Very frustrating to pull the extra weight.

I found this park and it previously had good reviews for dogs, so we decided to check it out. The park is just a short drive off of I-70 from the first Vail exit. There is ample free parking along the side of the park. The park is not huge, but dogs are permitted to be off leash in the entire park except for a small children's play area. There is a large field for playing frisbee or ball and the sides of this open field are somewhat banked up to denote the boundary. There is a walking trail around a small pond that is also fair game for the dogs. I had leftovers from my dinner in Denver the night before, so I found this a perfect spot for a picnic lunch. There is a small shelter with picnic tables. There is also a bathroom hit with running water (not outhouse like) and relatively clean for a park bathroom. If you and your dogs are driving though Vail, this is a must stop!
