Jones Fork Campground
Jones Fork Campground
Jones Fork Campground is a first-come, first-served dry campground with 10 sites located directly on Union Valley Reservoir in Eldorado National Forest, offering convenient access for fishing and water sports.
The campground features vault toilets, picnic tables, fire rings, and bear-proof food lockers, but no potable water—bring your own.
The nearby 5-mile paved Union Valley Bike Trail and proximity to the reservoir make it ideal for paddlers and anglers, though the campground operates seasonally from late May through mid-October.
