Beaver Lake Campground - Ouray RD
Beaver Lake Campground sits south of Beaver Lake with 11 camping sites nestled under spruce trees. Some sites have view of lake, open meadow and towering cliffs, while tent sites, located on a dead end spur, are nicely secluded. Beaver Lake is a popular fishing lake for day users, as well as, campers. Heavy 4-wheeler traffic along main access road. There is no drinking water at this campground, but water is available 1 mile south at Silver Jack Campground. There are no close communities to get provisions so visitors need to bring everything they need.
