No reservations required, first come first serve but every time we have come we never had a problem finding a spot even on a holiday weekend like labor day. We played in the lake with our dog Daisy, she absolutely loves swimming for toys and the water amazing! It was cold but not freezing, we want to bring our paddle boards next time. We park at mountain view overlook, be sure to pay the fee to park or you will get a ticket! We love coming here, the views are amazing and it's never too crowded. Highly recommend stopping by or camping here.

Management was some of the friendliest and helpful of any place we have stayed. Park was clean, neat and easy to get in and out. WiFi was good, but we used Verisign WiFi most of the time there. Lots to do in the area, between 4 wheeling, fishing, rafting, and sightseeing. Great location to spend the summer surrounded by mountains.

But it seems to be true for ALL RV parks in the area, so blame Chaffee County government not them. It's fine, just bring a propane grill and firebowl - Quiet hours. Yep, this is a quieter campground and they don't want you being noisy after 10pm. Want to party and be loud? Go somewhere else. Their vibe is nice and I don't mind the rule at all - Dogs. Their policy is a bit unusual and they only allow one dog per camper. They also require you to walk them in an area specifically to pee and poop there. I get why, but they are a bit too tight on that one IMO (that's where I would suggest they relax a bit or maybe charge per pet, whatever) I would recommend staying just be aware of their policies

Paddleboarding on Twin Lakes is not for the faint of heart! I would call myself an intermediate…read morepaddle boarder, and this was both a physically and mentally demanding experience for me. The owners were very friendly. We had booked an afternoon session, but it was pouring rain, so they told us we could wait it out and start later. They also do not charge a late fee if you go for over two hours, which we were grateful for because we got lost amongst the islands, and it was a difficult journey to find our way back and paddle against the currents. I was grateful they provided us dry bags and recommended that we bring extra layers. The weather changed really quickly as it was sunny when we started and later became overcast, rainy, and cold. It was very windy, and the currents were strong (at least for me). I also fell in the lake, so it was nice to have dry clothes to change into. Something that did throw us off was that the Google maps location takes you to the office, while the launch site where they actually have the rentals out is a completely different place about a 15 minute drive away, so we had to backtrack after we got to the office and read the sign with the correct address.

Luckily ran into a good samaritan who happened to work at SUP & Cycle. He went above and beyond w helpful tips and directed us to the perfect camping location! He was so nice that we decided to turn back after setting up camp to try their paddle boards. I've been paddling for years in FL. These are some of the best paddleboards I've come across. Excellent condition, stable and super comfy. The young lady that worked there (didn't capture any names sadly) was just as helpful and sweet. They pointed us to an excellent location with incredible views and we ended up there most of the day. These guys seriously made our trip! Can't thank y'all enough! Keep up the great work :-)

Last minute camping trip with 12 people and 2 dogs! This was a great spot!…read more My friends and I wanted to go camping this year before it got too chilly! There were a few activities we wanted to do as a group and separately. This campsite offered close proximity to everything :) we were able to go fishing, hiking, rock climbing, and stop into town for last minute supplies! A little north of Buena Vista, turtle rock campgrounds is a self pay campground. First come first serve. There was a campground host on site as well. A lot of camp sites and they seemed to be spread out nicely. We got three sites cause we were a big group. They did offer group sites but we got there too late to secure one. They offer vault toilets. I will say, I like these better than porta potties! Make sure you bring hand sanitizer! Each campsite had a fire pit but you need to supply your own wood/fire starter! We enjoyed being close to town cause when a group tried to go fishing, someone car battery died :( we had several cars so we were able to drive to town and get a new battery! Quick and easy fix! Overall I think this campground was really nice and easily accessible! Really bumpy road on the way up so bring the right car! I hope to go back during better weather! We got caught in a rain and windy storm but it passed within 30mins. Can't wait for the next adventure!

I absolutely loved the fact that there were two lines and automatic braking for safety - as an engineer I know those steel cables are tough but having the redundancy was extremely reassuring for a first-timer! Looking back, the drive up to the first zip line honestly seemed more dangerous than anything else haha! They even saw I was taking a GoPro and gave me a helmet with a GoPro mount, and I got all sorts of cool video! The photographer's photos were excellent too.
