This was one of our favorite sites on a trip with three young kids through the desert southwest and mountain west. Access to drinking water at a pump and the river across the road were welcome amenities. Former guests built a rock fort at site 13, which our children greatly enjoyed. This site also functions as a great stay if you plan to visit nearby Crested Butte. The campground hosts were knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful as well.

Very beautiful place with really nice and clean sites. The camp hosts was great too! Scenic area with easy access to the Taylor River.

Great area near the river. Bathrooms could be better maintained...but it's camping

We set up 2 tents at FF site #1. While all are close to the road (campground parallels road) and I'm a light sleeper, there is little traffic between 9 pm and at least 7 am and the Taylor River across road provides lovely background sounds. Nice trees and ample space between sites. Fishing access is right there and host Bob takes good care of the facility and everyone there.

There are a few "Lodgepole" campgrounds in CO. This review is for the Lodgepole Campground adjacent to the Taylor River near Almont, CO. I spent one night there during the first week of September 2018. The scenery is very pretty with pines, boulders, rocky cliffs, and the Taylor River. The bathroom is a pit toilet, but it was the cleanest I have seen in Colorado. There were only a couple of campers present on the week night I was there so it was very quiet. The road does create some noise but traffic was very light when I was there.

Beautiful, clean campground that is very well maintained. Beautiful views and so many places to explore. Hosts went above and beyond to be sure we were comfortable. Birds and deer galore. An amazing experience you won't want to miss.
