It was our first time camping at Bellaire Lake and we were impressed. It was so peaceful and well maintained, and the lake was great for fishing and walking around. We also did some paddleboarding, which was nice. It was also nice that the campground had flushing toilets and sinks. We camp a lot at Dowdy Lake and Dowdy does not have the flushing toilets (just vault toilets). I would recommend that Bellaire Lake campground put in soap dispensers in the bathrooms since they have the nice sinks.

We camped two nights at the Bellaire Campground. The sites were nicely spaced with neighbors a nice distance from each other. The bathrooms were nice and clean with a flush toilet! And Bellaire Lake is beautiful!

Would not recommend. This was a terrible camping experience. We rented the "group" site 3 times the cost @ $121.00 a night. We wanted the entire weekend from a Thursday to Sunday. The Friday slot showed as not available. So I reserved Thursday, and Saturday. Once we arrived we found that the campsite was on the road. There was power for 3 campers, but hardly enough room to get them parked. Our "neighbors across the road were constantly pulling into our site to back into thiers. The "camp hosts" if you want to call them that, were mostly unavailable and when we told them we were wanting the Friday "first come first serve" spot as well, they informed us we needed to pay cash for it. I went to the self serve kiosk to pay for the site, and as I was paying another car pulled up and was trying to pay for the same site, they said the camp hosts had just told them that our site was available, talk about trying to start a fight! Saturday morning we decided to go ahead and leave early. The noise and constant traffic was too much. As we were packing up, someone asked if we were leaving, they were going to rent the spot we were in. We had vacated the spot by 10am and another group had rented it, paying cash, of course. We requested a refund a refund for the night we didn't use and were denied. Even though someone else had rented it. This is a California company managing a Colorado campground. We have definitely gotten to the point that California controls Colorado. This company should be ashamed. And stop doing untraceable cash transactions.

Great small campground near a small mountain lake. Great rock formations, trees are starting to recover after a fire a few years ago.

It was alright but they could grade some of the campgrounds a little better for water control. Our picnic area flooded pretty bad when it rained because it was the lowest ground around. Also, wish they allowed ATVs? Probably a good spot for old people and families but if you’re young and outdoorsy probably better to go to open camping in the backwoods.

Clean facilities and well maintained. Dennis the resident host and his dog Mariah were very friendly and helpful especially when it came to navigating our fifth wheel into position. Lots of chipmunks around to entertain, saw some beautiful rainbow trout and watched 2 bald eagles looking to score some lunch at the lake. All the campers were polite and respectful and that made for a fantastic camping experience. I will definitely be going back.

Camp hosts we're great n pretty hilarious. There's a handful of really nice spots so plan in advance. This review we had 003 and 008 because it was last minute Father's Day weekend. ( We did Sun Mon nights n the place was fully occupied) Site 008 is exposed but has wonderful view northwest (007 is pretty sweet up above 008 with big trees). 003 turned out to be pretty alright. Back yard is a nice stream n meadow. Across is a multi camp site so it's busy) both close to good flush toilets n running water. Are experience at 8 would have been just great if it wasn't for the heavy wind). 003 is a little more protected. 008 is closer to the lake too so easy walking. Overall I would give this campsite a couple thumbs up we had a good time here and it was a last-minute deal. Some of the higher number sites around the west side are pretty nice . check them out

Campground is clean and well maintained. Camp host was friendly, attentive & diligent. Beautiful area. 4 stars not 5 because several people did not follow the dogs on leash rule and I had one dog charge my dog which was very scary. Also, the bathroom near our site was out of order and by the end of the weekend, the outhouses got pretty full.

What a beautiful place! The wildflowers are everywhere - more columbine than I have ever seen even on a hiking trail! The lake is not large but great to relax and paddle around. Campground hosts take excellent care & you aren't afraid to go into the restrooms. You can see how close the 2020 fire came to the lake and the campground but the serene, beauty of the area makes it a wonderful place to visit.

Nice campground, sites have some shade to help with the summer sun. The sites are spaced out enough, but others are within earshot. The lake is beautiful and a 5 minute walk from any campsite. Saw people picnicing and fishing. The grill is over the fireplace so be sure to bring fire building supplies if you plan to cook food on the fireplace grill. Picnic table included with site as well. The bathroom is cleaned daily and has full plumbing.

Loved it. The camp area felt so safe and secure. And the views were breath taking.

Nice camp ground and beautiful lake. The lake was jam packed with fish. Cows and deer near camp site. Nice camp host. Cons: had to ask for day use pass, fire ring was not cleaned out. And both bathrooms at our campsite loop were closed had to walk to neighboring loop for bathroom and those ones had no lighting in them and one door didn't lock. Despite all that, the bathrooms were clean. Also some of the area is burned from fires but still nice scenery.

A nice isolated campground, some damage from the Cameron Peak fire, but most of the lake and campground were saved by the heroic firefighters.

Great campground, very nice RV & tent sites. Great hiking and nice little lake with lots of coves within walking distance. The campground and bathrooms are very clean- great camp hosts. Nice fire rings, picnic benches & metal food boxes! Other visitors were friendly & respectful. Lots of dogs with good owners, I never saw dog poo on the ground!
