Willows Campground is located north of Silverthorne, near the north end of Green Mountain Reservoir. The reservoir is located 15 miles north of Silverthorne along Hwy 9 and has views of the Williams Fork and Gore mountain ranges. In addition to boating, there are a variety of activities including camping, fishing, picnicking, jet skiing, water skiing, swimming and hiking. Fee stations are located at various locations around the reservoir.
From I-70 take Exit 205, Silverthorne/Dillon, and travel north on HWY 9 for about 20 miles. Near the north end of Green Mountain Reservoir turn left (west) onto Heeney Rd (Cty Rd 30) and the campground will be on your left along the reservoir. Note: Make sure you pass the reservoir and turn onto the 2nd entrance to the Heeney Rd.
An awesome spot to camp next to the water and still have the gore range in the background. We were there during the week and it was pretty empty. But I could see it being packed on the weekends.
Great Campground! Some spots have shade some don't. Most spots have a great place to store a boat overnight. Friendly staff and reasonably clean facilities. Please slow down as you drive through as kids and dogs may be. Close to the road as some sites are right on the road.
Such a great place! Amazing views, and beautiful water! Great clean restrooms!
Best vault toilets I've ever used, haha. The reservoir is low and very eroded. Fishing was great. Too muddy and rocky to even wade, much less swim, but the facilities and the views were fantastic. If you just want to hang and fish, this is a great campground! Just remember to bring water as there's no pump on the site. And earplugs if the sounds of the highway might bother you.
30min drive to Silverthorne too, so food and shopping is near enough.
Beautiful views of the mountains with water access for most of the campsites. Clean facilities were a plus. Fishing, boating & paddle boarding! Water level is also back to full capacity after several low years.
