This is an AWESOME public campground and best of all, it's donation only (aka FREE!). We were there in a high clearance vehicle on May 31, 2014. The entire campground was dry and snow-free. A car can get up the road from Ohio City, but it is a bit rocky for the last 1-2 miles. Trailheads for Mill Lake and about 3-4 other trails that head up to Lamphier Lake, Fairview Peak, and even Henry Lake and passes that lead further up and beyond into the Gunnison Natl Forest are located steps from the campsites. I tried to label pics of the campground and each campsite (there are 6). If you drive past the trailhead parking area, there is a bridge that crosses Gold Creek and we noted some campers over there for one night in a smaller area. They were in a Subaru and it was pretty muddy, but they made it in and out w/no problem. Thanks to volunteers who keep this campground tip-top! There is one vault toilet, and I suppose you could filter creek water, but be prepared with supplies if you camp up here. Looks like horses use some of the trails, but a sign said "no horses in campground". TONS of snow was still on the ground. We tried to get to Mill Lake, but the trail was buried in 3-4 feet in late May. We postholed for awhile, but turned around as it was getting late, never making the lake. The next day, boyfriend summitted Fairview Peak and reportedl that Mill Lake was still all frozen, anyway, of course. read more
