Reviews

There are entrances to the San Juan Trail behind a lot of the campsites. It was a lot of fun to run on, and beautiful! Some sites can be a bit close together, but there were very few people there when I went. 

There are two types of sites here, spurs and park/pitch a tent sites. I chose the spur because my car is my tent. 

To pay, you pull up to the main entrance, grab an envelope and then drive to your site. After filling out the relevant details and hanging the paper placard on your mirror, you walk the envelope with the fee in it to the deposit box at front.

Approximately 50 campsites, first come, first served. As others have noted, the trails area not particularly well marked, but with a GPS app for one's phone, or a paper map, it's relatively painless to find one's way around. Also, the road has been repaired and is smooth asphalt all the way to the campground as of Spring 2017. If you have the time and inclination to hike a bit for some great views, one can go past the Falcon Campground, then turn left and head up the Main Divide road (which a high clearance vehicle can drive) to Los Pinos Peak. From the intersection of Long Canyon Road and the Main Divide it's about 1.7 miles to the start of the trail (marked by some teal colored bars), then another mile or so the summit.

This is a great campground, just far enough away from society that it feels "adventurous." Great place to hike and ride bikes too. I really dig the drive to this campground, as it's offload/dirt and provides sweeping views.

Nice campground located off the beaten path (Ortega Hwy). There are a lot of individual sites as well as group sites. There are good pit outhouses and bad ones(super stanky) but all in all good campground to just come to when you need to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
