Idlewild Campground

Idlewild Campground offers 24 non-electric sites at 9,000 feet elevation along the Fraser River, just one mile south of Winter Park on US Highway 40, with amenities including potable water, restrooms, picnic tables, and bear-resistant food lockers.

The campground provides direct river access and connects to the paved Fraser River Trail for biking and hiking, making it convenient for both camping and exploring the surrounding Arapaho & Roosevelt National Forests.

Sites operate on a first-come, first-served and reservable basis ($22/night), with a 14-day stay limit and pet-friendly policy (leashed dogs only).
