Carter Lake Eagle Campground

Ok campground, good location Sites aren’t level, very tight squeeze through the trees for larger RVs. No one was there to check us in, give a map, etc when we got there at 3pm but then a park ranger knocked on our door around 9pm to check us in. Showers require tokens, $1=1 token, 3 tokens=6 minutes. Note: sign says 2 tokens gets you 6 min but the shower would not start until we put in 3 tokens! And if you only have $5 bill to give to the machine, then you’re stuck with 2 left over tokens (we just paid it forward) and just lost your money. Pretty pricey if you ask me! I’ve been to CO campgrounds where $1.25 gets you five minutes. No dump station at the campground, but you have to go all the way to the south entrance station to dump and there’s a water fill up point there’s as well. Overal

Bumpy gravel road, but the sites are nice, and the scenery is pretty. There has been a herd of deer that have been bedding down on the edge of the campground each evening.

Fun location, electric hookups only, very close to Carter Lake. This is a county funded area and the parks pass plates do not apply.

Pretty average campground. My site wasn’t very level so I had to use stones under my leveling blocks (thankfully there’s a ton of sandstone slabs). Had some loud neighbors too but they respected the quiet hours and turned their giant speaker off after 10. Easy access to the lake and the site was clean.

This place was good staff was nice but if I came here again I would scout my spot due to the weird layout of the campsites. Though i did like they had a tent pad on my site. I wished the fire pit was closer. Which is another good thing they allow campfires per fire restrictions of course. Make sure you plan for paying for parks pass and showers though if you you plan to tent
