Paliza Group Campground

Met Fraser

Went camping here with a big group of friends and had a great time despite heavy rainstorms! There's two sections, one closer to the pavilion and a loop a little ways down. The loop is far enough away from the pavilion that sound didn't carry terribly much. No water available the campsite, but there's a nice little creek running along the front edge and under the driveway bridge. No electricity available at camp sites and only some sites are near parking. The site appears to be well drained, we didn't get flooded by the heavy rains this past weekend. Campfire sites are at each campsite and at the pavilion. Walatowa convenience store/Red Rocks gas station is 20 minutes away.

The Paliza Group Campground was a beautiful place to stay for a long weekend. The facilities are clean, well maintained, and also fairly wheelchair accessible. The pavilion had eight picnic tables that could be rearranged for group activities, as well as a fire pit and grill. It’s an easy distance to the Paliza Goblin Colony Trailhead. A Forest Service employee came by to check on us and resupply the bathrooms which was greatly appreciated. I would definitely recommend this campground to large groups. The scenery can’t be beat!

Day1 open- just driving thru - stopped to let our Yorkies out for a couple of minutes- sitting on our tailgate with water and a sandwich & camp host told us to leave “no picnicing” we were NOT picnicing! We were not in at camp site! Or a table. We were the only people in the entire park and he would not even give us 5 minutes- kept repeating “no picnicking” what a rude jerk.

This is a really great group group site. Spacious and clean with a wide variety of sites for tents and campers. Our church rented the campground for a weekend retreat and the large pavilion at the top of the campground was perfect for group activities. The site also has some of the cleanest facilities I can remember at a camp ground!

Only downside was no water. Beautiful area, remote, bit hard to find without GPS, no cell service unless Verizon & that barely. But that's the idea, right? Toilets clean and well stocked, no water or electricity. Great flat areas to camp with parking, pavilion gathering area is large. Each site has its own fire pit & tables. Camp hosts are delightful, helpful, welcoming folks. Good hiking and lots to explore on foot. Yes, wildlife, so keep foodstuffs locked in vehicles at night - NOT YOUR TENT. Star scape is impressive. ~40 min to closest market for ice, etc. I'll go again!
