Eleven Mile State Park

Unbelievable scenery and for a whopping 10 dollar day pass, you can't beat it. We drove the entire way stopping several times to take in the beauty. Lots of places to pull over and have a picnic, stretch your legs and just relax. The road needs to be graded, lots of washboards that will just about shake you out of your vehicle, which is why I only gave 4 stars. Well worth the visit and will do it again!!

Absolutely gorgeous basic camping spots. Peaceful, beautiful with literally 360 degree views of lake and mountains. Clean restrooms, very convenient and clean shower facilities & laundry at office building. A few caveats: many of the spots have no shade, you may want to check first. The lake doesn't allow swimming. The Marina only rents pontoons and fishing boats (we wished we had brought or could rent a kayak) -- also, water pumps are pretty sparse, bring water or jugs to fill.

We stayed here in May 2021 and of course, it snowed :). Colorado weather! The RV park is very clean, and we really enjoyed how close we were to the water while also having amazing views of the land around us. The prices are reasonable, just keep in mind on top of the spot fee you are also paying a fee for EACH vehicle. We didn't think about that. And be mindful of the road leading out to Lake George....definitely could use some repaving! So, go slow!Update May 2022:Came back in May of 2022 and 2 feet of snow came! May in Colorado! In spite of the snow.....fantastic times!!!!

Can you say gorgeous? I was so excited to spend sometime at Eleven Mile State Park. It was an early morning and long drive but so worth it. There are multiple camp sites and a wondrously beautiful lake. You can purchase an annual or day pass. We purchased a day pass for $9. There are information signage in the park about prices and places. We basically had the entire area to ourselves. Some of the areas are private property and marked accordingly. We fished for hours and didn't catch one fish. The sun was so bright, the slight wind and the calming water was gorgeous as I peered in the distance to see the mountains. We just sat for a moment and enjoyed our time. There are also restrooms available in the park and plenty of places to walk.

I have stayed at this State Park both in an RV and in a tent. Both times were great! You do have to pay an entrance fee each night you stay, plus what you've already paid for your reservation. I just want to let you know up front to be prepared for that charge once you arrive. A few things about the reservoir facilities, you WILL need cash (low bills or quarters, there's a machine in the restrooms by the office to get quarters for low bills) to shower. It costs 4 quarters/minute. The water does get warm after about 30 seconds so don't worry about having a cold shower. The restrooms are cleaned every single morning, closing from 0730-0830(times may change, that's just what they were when we stayed last). There is a marina store if you happen to need essentials, they do charge a bit more than normally grocery stores as you can imagine. There are toilets (no sinks in those, so bring hand sanitizer/water and soap) placed sporadically throughout the Park, so you have access to closer facilities rather than having to walk all the way to the front entrance in the middle of the night. The scenery is absolutely beautiful! This last time we stayed three nights in our tent, it rained each evening, but it was a light, cool rain. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. I recommend staying here if you want to explore a little of what Colorado has to offer!

What an amazing find for our annual camping trip! We try to make 1-2 camping trips each summer, and this place is my favorite one so far. As everyone in Colorado knows, campsites are hard to come by, so make sure to reserve early! We stayed in a tent near the water and our view was absolutely amazing!! I wish we had chosen a lot that was tent sites only, because there were mostly RV's with generators running all day and night long, which kind of took away some of the magic, but all in all, we had a great time! We stayed in North Loop A and there was a little store located at the marina where we could get ice and firewood (and really anything else we forgot to pack) and everyone working there was super friendly and helpful. We took our kayak out a few of the days and stopped along the way to hike on the beautiful trails nearby. Next time, we're definitely bringing our mountain bikes and snatching up a backcountry camp site, for more privacy and a more rustic feel. This whole area is perfect for stargazing and each night we got quite a show of shooting stars. The bathrooms were very clean and there were enough throughout the park that there was never a line. We will absolutely be back!

The older Caucasian man working the cashier at the marina store on Wednesday 7/28/21 was rude and racist. The rest of the marina workers that helped us with our pontoon rental were nice and helpful. Inflated prices at the store. Campground was clean. Bathrooms are dirty. Lake was gorgeous. Wish they had water hookups and a dump site. Terrible roads driving there. FYI you still have to pay a daily park fee even though you already paid your reservation online. Lots of bugs and mosquitos as well

My husband and I stayed at Stoll Mountain. It was absolutely beautiful. We were water front and it was fabulous. We were in a camper and it was our first time without hook up. It was the best yet! I highly recommend this camp ground!

Summer and winter ice fishing is awesome adventure here at this lake, trout is bigger here than antero lake, but not as much bites. Beginning of January its really cold to ice fish, but an wonderful experience. This one has a $8 park fee.

This is a beautiful valley Reservoir. The best way to view the mass is to drive in from florissant as if you are headed to hartsel. It's just beautiful. Not a whole lot of trees but again the vast mass of water makes up for what the eye can see. I would highly recommend a picnic meal here. Take your lover, take your kids or come alone and find the peace that comes with the bounty of nature. You should not regret the trip.
