Mill Creek Campground

Mill Creek Campground offers 22 campsites at 9,500 feet elevation along the Lake Fork of the Gunnison River, with fishing access trails and river access (though boating is not recommended).

The BLM-managed campground features vault toilets, hand pump water, fire rings, picnic tables, and bear-proof food storage boxes at $20/night, with 13 reservable sites and 9 first-come, first-served sites available June through September.

It serves as an excellent base for accessing the Alpine Loop Backcountry Byway and nearby 14,000-foot peaks, though note that the campground is located off a major 4x4 road which can generate traffic noise.
