About Chambers Lake Campground

This campground is located approximately 60 miles northwest of Fort Collins, Colorado and situated in a mountainous, lodgepole pine forest. Each site contains a tent pad, fire grate and picnic table. **All campsites with a tent pad have a bear locker.** Additional facilities provided include a playground area and a boat ramp. Popular activities include fishing and boating on Chambers Lake or other near by lakes and streams, hiking, scenic driving, four-wheel driving, and wildlife viewing. Please note the boat ramp may be unusable in late summer due to drop in water level.
