Campground Overview

About Willow Creek Campground

Willow Creek Campground, set along the southern shore of the serene Willow Creek Reservoir, offers a peaceful retreat with stunning mountain views and ample opportunities for outdoor recreation. Its standout features include convenient access to non-motorized boating, excellent fishing for trout varieties, and proximity to the nearby town of Granby, providing a mix of wilderness seclusion and essential conveniences.

This campground features 32 non-electric campsites accommodating tents, trailers, and RVs, alongside a group site for larger gatherings. Standard amenities include picnic tables, fire pits, bear-proof lockers, vault toilets, and drinking water, though RV or water hookups are not available. The area’s natural beauty is complemented by nearby trails and the calm reservoir, ideal for canoeing, kayaking, and wildlife spotting. Campers should anticipate clear night skies but be prepared for afternoon summer thunderstorms.

Located just 6 miles from Granby, the campground is also a short drive from the Rocky Mountain National Park’s west entrance and the Arapaho National Recreation Area. Visitors can explore nearby hiking trails and lakes such as Lake Granby and Shadow Mountain Lake, making it a versatile base for day trips, weekend getaways, or extended stays focused on fishing, hiking, and connecting with Colorado’s pristine outdoors.
