Awesome getaway! Way cooler than the Valley with the smell of pine hitting you as you drive up the 260. Great spots for tents. Campers have to stay on pads. 3 minutes from the marina and boat ramp. Great fishing!

Had such an amazing time here with family. It was my first time camping as an adult. I remember camping when I was little but haven’t been back since.

I remember camping when I was little but haven’t been back since. So this was a nice little getaway from everything! Great time to reflect and play card games and sit around the fire and talk. It wasn’t too busy this time of season. It was quiet and clean. We slept in an RV. Next time maybe considering taking a tent as well to experience that. But overall everything was awesome! Will definitely come back!

My first time at Aspen campground and I loved it. Bathrooms were clean and the area was well kept. I liked that each camp spot had a bench. Lots of room and shade in each spot. The area is great for walking and close to the lake. Will go again.
