Blue Lake Campground

Blue Lake Campground is a first-come, first-served developed campground at 10,500 feet elevation in San Isabel National Forest with 16 sites featuring fire rings and picnic tables, potable water, and vault toilets.

A tributary of Cucharas Creek runs through the campground, and Blue Lake (0. 5 miles away) and Bear Lake (1 mile away) offer fishing access via well-marked trails.

Note: The campground was heavily damaged by windstorms in 2022 and clearcut in spring 2024, resulting in minimal tree cover and potentially windy conditions; it operates late May through late September with a $25/night fee and accommodates RVs up to 56 feet.
