About Gore Creek Campground

Campground in Colorado.

Gore Creek Campground offers a pristine mountain camping experience nestled in the heart of Colorado's stunning high country. Located in the Eagle River Valley, this public campground provides an ideal base for travelers seeking authentic alpine adventures without sacrificing comfort and accessibility.

The campground sits at an elevation that brings you into the realm of towering evergreens, crisp mountain air, and the soothing sounds of Gore Creek running nearby. Whether you're an experienced RV traveler or someone just beginning to explore the camping lifestyle, this location strikes a wonderful balance between remote mountain beauty and convenient access to amenities and activities.

What makes this area particularly special is its proximity to world-class recreation opportunities. The surrounding national forest lands offer excellent hiking trails ranging from leisurely walks to challenging alpine treks. Mountain biking enthusiasts will find themselves in paradise, with trails suitable for all skill levels winding through the forested terrain. Fishing in Gore Creek and nearby waters is a beloved pastime, and the creek itself provides peaceful scenery whether you're an angler or simply enjoy being near flowing water.

Winter transforms the area into a snowy wonderland, and summer brings mild temperatures perfect for exploring without the intensity of heat found at lower elevations. Spring wildflower displays and fall aspen colors create spectacular photo opportunities throughout the changing seasons.

The location offers excellent access to the charming mountain towns nearby, where you'll find restaurants, shops, and services to complement your camping experience. This makes it an excellent choice for travelers who want to enjoy both wilderness solitude and occasional town conveniences.

Gore Creek Campground welcomes families, couples, solo adventurers, and everyone in between. It's perfect for those seeking mountain tranquility, outdoor recreation, and genuine connection with Colorado's natural landscape.

This particular site was off the chart so beautiful It’s The fall season and the Aspen are breathtaking. The reviews say that it wasn’t appreciated because bears were not in the vicinity, but darn it we didn’t see one.

Great location. The campsites are spacious and feel private. Great bear boxes. The pit toilets might be some of the cleanest I've ever seen. The staff is also very friendly. Site 11 is close to the river which is nice but the site itself isn't very level and it was hard to find a spot for our tent.

Site 11 is close to the river which is nice but the site itself isn't very level and it was hard to find a spot for our tent. They best place was a spot which was under some trees but the was close to some restrooms. The table kept rocking as well because it couldn't be leveled. Depending on the wind you can expect to smell the pit toilets. I really liked the campground and would definitely come back but I'd probably look for another campsite.

Gorgeous campground 10 minutes from Vail. Enjoy the sound of the creek (and a little highway noise) at one of their fairly secluded sites. Pictured, is site 23. Note that sites 20-25 do require a short hike in. Level tent area, picnic table, fire pit, and bear proof box provided at each. Bathrooms located in the parking lot - seriously, the cleanest camping bathrooms I've ever had! Simple booking... Gorgeous campground 10 minutes from Vail.

Gore Creek worked well for us for two nights on our way through. We have an F350 and an 18' trailer and most sites were fine. The sites by the creek are beautiful, although if you have very small children you'll need to watch them as the water moves fast and the snowmelt continues into the summer. Shaun T(?) the caretaker was great. We did have a black bear in camp, who snuck up to within 20' of o... Gore Creek worked well for us for two nights on our way through.

Gorgeous campsite!!! The bathrooms were the cleanest I've seen. A bear box and picnic table are provided. But a few things were unfortunate: 1. They have a very fine powdery dirt at the campsite which stuck to everything. I've never been to a campsite with it before so if you have children or dogs they will get extremely dirty. 2. The firewood we purchased here was awful. It wasn't under a cover... Gorgeous campsite!!! The bathrooms were the cleanest I've seen. A bear box and picnic table are provided.

It wasn't under a cover and was wrapped in plastic but I think it will got wet because we could not keep our fire going and tried so very hard. Just smoke. 3. It is very close to I-70 so we could hear traffic, especially at night time. 4. The small trash bins were very full. Also FYI black bears are very prevelant in the area so be prepared!
