Just can't get enough of Lake Grant. If you came to camp Crested Butte Mountain Resort is a brilliant place to do that, and you can have a great hiking adventure  
   along the Trail Riders Trail. Black Canyon Of The Gunnison National Park is a fine local destination here at Lake Grant, and the snow is nice at Aspen Highlands.
This lake is so wonderful. If you need a place to stay Purple Mountain Lodge B&B-Spa is a glorious choice, and if you've had enough of Lake Grant, Peanut Lake is close by.

We've camped here since our now 40ish childrlen were young. They are now taking their children there. Mosca is beautiful both to the eye and the heart.

The camp hostess, Mary, is there is to help you with problems, and to give great advice.Other than the water problem, this is the greatest camp ground I've ever occupied!...

Lost Lake Campground
18 miles away
I just camped at Lost Lake 2 weeks ago! It is so beautiful and serene they were holding a wedding there 2 days after we left. With only 10 campsites, it is quiet and ideal for families or couples. A beautiful view of Lost Lake Slough and of the mountains in the background greeted us in the morning. The full moon rising over the crest of the mountain was a real treat the first night we got there. There is a 3 mile hike within walking distance on which we saw beautiful wildflowers, 2 waterfalls, and 3 lakes. ENJOY!...
