About Rocking Chair Campground

Rocking Chair Campground offers a serene lakeside retreat with panoramic views of Eleven Mile Reservoir, combining rustic charm and prime fishing access in a picturesque mountain setting. The campground features 13 well-maintained sites nestled among native Gambel oaks, providing a balance of privacy and open vistas. Its location on the southern shore grants campers front-row seats to stunning sunsets over the water and easy access to the reservoir's renowned trout and pike fishing.

Situated within Eleven Mile State Park, Rocking Chair Campground is about an hour's drive west of Colorado Springs, offering a true escape into nature without sacrificing proximity to amenities. The surrounding area boasts diverse recreational opportunities, from hiking and wildlife viewing to boating and ice fishing in winter. The nearby historic town of Lake George provides a glimpse into Colorado's mining heritage, while the scenic drive along Highway 24 showcases the beauty of the Pike National Forest.

This campground is particularly well-suited for weekend getaways and extended vacations, attracting anglers, nature photographers, and families seeking a tranquil outdoor experience. The area's rich biodiversity, including abundant birdlife and occasional elk sightings, adds to the authentic Colorado wilderness experience. While Rocking Chair Campground maintains a reputation for its peaceful atmosphere and well-kept facilities, it's the unparalleled access to one of Colorado's premier fishing reservoirs that truly sets it apart.
