Elk Creek Campground offers direct access to Blue Mesa Reservoir with multiple boat ramps (Elk Creek, Lake Fork, and Iola) and an on-site marina for water sports and fishing.

The campground features 200+ campsites across four loops with varying amenities—Loop D offers electric hookups (30/50 amp), while Loops A-C provide non-electric tent and RV sites, all with clean flush toilets and dump stations.

Located at 7,540 feet elevation off US Highway 50 near Gunnison, it's an ideal base for paddling, boating, and water recreation, though note that afternoon winds are common and cell service is limited.
