Silverthorne, CO campground info?

Will be heading to Silverthorne, Colorado for a wedding in July. Looking for recommendations on a campground in the area. Any suggestions? :@

  • Thanx for all the info.
    Being July we want to make reservations as soon as possible. Probably only be 2 nights, but we want to have the site before we get there.
  • Search for campgrounds around Lake Dillon, there are several. I dont know, but would expect those campgrounds to on a USFS reservation system, and would highly recommend reservations. Lake Dillon is busy in July, and just an hour from a billion people in the Denver metro area.

    It is a beautiful area, and there will be lots to see and do besides the ceremonies you are attending. I don't camp there myself, since I am not a big lake boater. Enjoy!
  • Tiger Run and the campgrounds around Lake Dillon are the only close options I know of. There is a smaller campground north of Silverthorne on along the Blue River on Hwy 9.

    You should be able to find the Dillon campgrounds on Recreation.gov. They will book out early.
  • Forget Tiger Run. They don't allow TCs in there or at least they didn't when I lived in CO and traveled that area. If you notice the fellow above me that recommended it has a MH and not a TCer. I don't have one anymore either but I had many of them when I lived in CO.
  • There is Tiger run in Breckenridge but it is pricey. Depending on needs there a few parks around 1 at lake Dillon
