Wife and I camped at Sugar Loafin' this past weekend (July 22-24) and it was her first time here and my second. My first time was way back in August 1996. If you're into recreational activities in and around the Leadville area, camping is pretty much your only option. The City of Leadville is rather limited on quality hotel/motels, plus... More

We first stayed at Sugar Loafin’ Campground the summer of 1974 and fell in love with its natural high country setting, close to hiking, fishing ( river & lake), ATV & bike rentals and beautiful views of Mt. Elbert and Mt. Massive both of which are over fourteen thousand feet. Family owned and operated since the 1960’s they are really... More

I realized this week that I've been staying at Sugar Loafin at least once each summer for the past fourteen years. I may have missed a summer or two along the way, but I've been staying there since at least 1996 when I tried my first shot at the Leadville 100 mountain bike race. This campground is just that, my... More

This campground is fantastic! Exceptionally clean--and the staff goes out of their way to make your stay memorable. Only one mile from Turquoise Lake, and a quick drive to Leadville. Terrific hiking, shopping, fishing and sightseeing nearby. The campground has a nightly Ice Cream Social--with the best ice cream around! Lots of fun to say "hello" to fellow campers. We've... More

Okay, we traveled there in a motorhome and the the sites were very close together which is not something we are used to, but, the staff was very very nice, the facilities and the grounds were very clean. The only other RV site with full hook ups is in the town of Leadville and I would not recommend that all.... More

We spent 8 enjoyable days at Sugar Loafin. The campground has been there since 1965 and is smaller than some, but it accomodated our 48 foot trailer with no problems, and parking for our truck, Jeep and motorcycle.. The campground is still owned by the same family, and the 82 year old woman who founded it entertained us with stories... More

The campground was packed beyond belief . i had to wonder if it was even legal to have so many people per square foot. Very large trailers parked right next to each other . the manager was very concerned about any and Imean any noise after 10. Talking around the camp fire was not even allowed . Lots of the... More

The prices werent as bad as I expected either. On the downside the electricity didnt work in the middle of the night in... More
