Florida Campground Facilities

Florida is a low-use campground. Colorado blue spruce, Douglas-fir, and aspen dominate the area. Tent campers can find some well-shaded spots near the river. Campground host on site until Labor Day. Potable water in season, trash pickup in season, vault toilets, tables and fireplaces are available. Firewood is available, but you must gather your own. After Labor Day, camping fees are deposited in fee tubes. Toilets will remain open. If sites have water and trash service, fees are full price, otherwise they are half price.
