The best you could ask for in a National Park Campsite - access to lake, flush toilets, ranger programs.= and yes bear boxes too.110 site was huge with three tent pads, 3 picnic tables and two bear proof boxes. This site does not face the lake but its close by - shade and large space with no immediate sites was a huge plus.

Beautiful spot, running water and toilets which was great! Great hiking trails near by. It was pretty busy, and the site was right next to the parking lot which is why I only have 4 stars. I would still stay here again!

If youre planning on hanging at Diablo Lake a lot this is an ideal campground. If not, there are nicer campgrounds in the park. Spots are pretty close to each other, bathrooms were fine but not as clean as other campgrounds. No cellphone service for Verizon and AT&T.

A group of young teenage boys camped near us and kept everyone up until 2. Went over to ask them to be quiet, but didnt work. No ranger or camp attendant. If there had been one they would have heard. Camp site was well cleaned as were the bathrooms. Just no one in charge to keep the kids quiet

@CatalinaLA8901 · Camped on Aug 3, 2024 at Campsite #99

Gorgeous location right by the lake

@StephanieW6424 · Camped on Aug 2, 2024 at Campsite #112

The campground is very nice, the lake is stunning, the bathrooms were always very clean. This particular site isnt that great. Not the worst either. It is very close to the bathroom and to one of the trailheads. Its one of the furthest from the boat launch. Its not very private as theres a site directly behind you and its also very open to the road. You will see lots of people walking by. The next time I come here I will try to get a lakefront site. Those arent private either but at least you dont have to haul a kayak all the way to the boat launch. The campsites at the top of the loop (the furthest from the water) are the most private, if thats what youre looking for.

@JoanK2296862 · Camped on Jul 31, 2024 at Campsite #82

Wonderful location. Even has a bathroom close by!

@CindyA3132276 · Camped on Jul 26, 2024 at Campsite #106

Fires and evacuations in the area, they don't pick up the phone and still don't have the decency of refunding your money when you couldn't even access the road. Very disappointed in this facility

@FrancescV0D7CD · Camped on Jul 23, 2024 at Campsite #91

Pretty nice campground, though the campsites vary significantly, some are large and can accommodate a large and a medium tent, while others only have room for a medium (2 people) tent.Each spot has a table and a fire pit, though fires are no longer allowed. The sites next to the water are the ones to get if you have the opportunity, as you can enjoy views of the lake.There are plenty of potable water faucets and the toilets are nice and clean. Overall a very nice campground, with some beautiful views of the lake and some good hikes nearby.

@SadieB8005948 · Camped on Jul 22, 2024 at Campsite #67

Site was clean and nicely maintained. Quick walk to bathrooms and car port but not too close that it disturbs the scenery (you can hear the toilet flushing sometimes FYI!). There is a site directly in front that, if occupied, will block your view of the water.

@MariaD6106413 · Camped on Jul 22, 2024 at Campsite #163

No communication and struggle contact this and frustration because it was stuck and due wildfire. I cant get refund.

@BarbaraW341429 · Camped on Jul 21, 2024 at Campsite #89

Wonderful campground close to the water with hiking trails and water access in a superb location!

@JocelynB927815 · Camped on Jul 15, 2024 at Campsite #100

I had an issue with my reservation and was VERY grateful for the NPS ranger that called me and adjusted my reservation dates with me. I know this is the exception (and not the rule) and she went the above and beyond and this resulted in my trip - planned 6 months out - to be realized. Thank you so much NPS!! Beyond the service the campground is great, most sites shaded and water-adjacent sites coveted. Hike up the valley is gorgeous with old growth cedars, daily ranger programs at the amphitheater, and the nob trail, not to mention SUP/kayaking. If you have wetsuits, they worked well for our kids playing in the cold glacial water.

@AlexP3554916 · Camped on Jul 13, 2024 at Campsite #113

Clean, safe, beautiful space, wonderful for our family. We love our annual visit!

@AllisonS114048 · Camped on Jul 11, 2024 at Campsite #88

Very nice wooded campsite with easy access to the lake. Clean bathrooms with flush toilets, plenty of water spigots, easy parking.

@MarcusF5531828 · Camped on Jul 9, 2024 at Campsite #153

Nice quiet campground. Sites were clean and well kept. Lots of shade on site 153, and only a small amount of slope. Short bike ride to the parking lot where there is excellent lake access. Ranger program every night at the amphitheater. VG experience.

@KristineGE3AE3 · Camped on Jul 7, 2024 at Campsite #94

Trees were pretty, by the water, there is a cool breeze at night, the hikes from the campground are beautiful, the only thing that would make it even better is a shower house!!

@KevinE9018417 · Camped on Jul 7, 2024 at Campsite #88

This campground is in a gorgeous location and site 88 was nice--direct access to the water, tent pad a little bit off the road, not too far from the water spigot and bathrooms (which were new, clean, and still cool in 90+ degree weather.) There are several great hikes right from the campground, and tons more a short drive away. The campground was filled with families having tons of noisy fun, but that's expected at a popular campground and everyone respected the quiet hours. This is an ideal spot for water fun and lots of people had kayaks, canoes and SUPs, which you can launch directly from site 88. Finally, the staff really put the "service" in National Park Service-there were crew members all over and they were super friendly and helpful. We'll return for sure!

@MattM4094344 · Camped on Jul 2, 2024 at Campsite #96

This campground needs more hosts. The ones present were very good but they need more. People were speeding through the campground at all hours.

@LauraD1350391 · Camped on Jun 24, 2024 at Campsite #162

A family favorite! We love Colonial Creek Campground in the heart of the North Cascades. With wonderful, quiet, wooded campsites and excellent proximity to the lake. Easy access to hiking and only an hour from charming Winthrop. We make Colonial Creek Campground, a yearly destination for our summer camping trips.

@JohnW4841416 · Camped on Jun 20, 2024 at Campsite #96

Site 96 is a large one with a medium-size tent pad, a bear box, and a great fire ring with a rotating grill. Its close but not too close to the bathroom. It has a long flat parking area and the whole campground is in the woods and has lots of shade. Be aware that many people drive fast (20-30mph) around this campground.

@MiriahG58C1955 · Camped on Jun 10, 2024 at Campsite #82

Best camping spot on both North & South Colonial Campgrounds. It has a great view of the water. Other sites view of the water were somewhat blocked due to trees. Would recommend for July or August when it is warmer though. Overall we had a great experience and cant wait to come back!

@EmilyB3587069 · Camped on Jun 9, 2024 at Campsite #161

This campground is a gem! The only complaint we had was that the picnic table was at such a severe slant that everything slid. We attempted to reposition the table, but we eventually accepted that you can't fix a steep hill. The campground is located near some of the most beautiful hikes I have ever experienced. Definitely coming back!

@DonA6145826 · Camped on Jun 4, 2024 at Campsite #70

One of our favorite dry camping spots

@RonaldL5882019 · Camped on May 30, 2024 at Campsite #116

Very nice camping area with good views of creek. Great access to hiking trails. Showers would be a good addition

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
