Lake City Campgrounds - Tell me about the Good and the Bad

Looks like we might try to spend a month or so in Lake City, CO - Talk to me about where to stay.

I have been before but did not stay in the town - Love it though :-)

IMHO it might be one of the last of the Undiscovered spots in Colorado? Well not Estes Park!

Where have you stayed what did you like not like - River and Town would be the Top Priorities - Almost bought a house there 12 years ago.

Give me your scoop,

TIA,

    Alright, you caused me to load up the map. It was Elk Horn that we stayed at. Nice enough spot. No reason not to go back there if returning to town. Our stay was 2010.

    Veebyes,

    You are the other Marylander - in your review you say you arrived before it was open - Early May? - seems as they like to think the season start May 15th and ends October 1st - Crazy, IMHO as they are missing what I'd consider a great time to be in the area.

    Anyway, thanks again for the reply,

    Busskipper, yeah, we have opened up many a CG over the years. Just found out our #1 CG in MD won't be open when we arrive in a few weeks.
