No reservations required, first come first serve but every time we have come we never had a problem finding a spot even on a holiday weekend like labor day. We played in the lake with our dog Daisy, she absolutely loves swimming for toys and the water amazing! It was cold but not freezing, we want to bring our paddle boards next time. We park at mountain view overlook, be sure to pay the fee to park or you will get a ticket! We love coming here, the views are amazing and it's never too crowded. Highly recommend stopping by or camping here.

I suggest bringing an old Starbucks cup to urinate into because the bathrooms are absolutely atrocious. I was gagging just stepping in the door.

It's just too easy to prefer high mountain summits, national parks and forests or private land. But Colorado State Parks are like none other. Many landmarks and places that make up the state parks of Colorado, had they been found in other parts of the country might have been designated national parks by leaders of yore. That's just the outsized grandeur of Colorado. I'll even venture: it makes other western states squirm with envy. All of Colorado is like an unofficial national park. It is, without debate, the best non-coastal state in the nation. Mueller and so many other places are a testament to that.

Great visitor center with knowledgeable rangers. Staying in a cabin and it is really nice. No WiFi and no tv. If you need that it's best to stay home. Dogs / domestics are not allowed on these trails to protect the abundant wildlife. And face it most people do not clean up after their dogs or let them off leash to chase wildlife. Not cool. I used to hike this park all the time living in Woodland Park. I've seen deer, elk, turkeys, owls, and I think it was a minx cat.
