What campers say

Camp Hale Memorial Campground is a clean, well-maintained, historically rich spot in the Colorado Rockies with sweeping mountain views, wildflowers in late July, and interpretive plaques about its WWII past.

Amenities are basic: vault toilets only, no hookups, water, or dump station, and little to no cell service. Hosts are praised as friendly and helpful.
