Woods Lake Campground — about 40 minutes west of Telluride
Published September 25, 2026
Placerville, Colorado

I’m just gonna use this caption to cover several things I couldn’t fit into the reel.
1. The sites are first come, first served, meaning there’s no possibility of making a reservation beforehand online.
2. I’ve been told that the lake is stocked with some of the most beautifully colorful fish you’ve likely ever caught, but they have a strict catch-and-release policy.
3. And very important: I’d come prepared with a way to cook your food that isn’t a campfire — as this area is often under a fire ban. Don’t be THAT PERSON.
Site Fees:
Single Site: $20 per night
Equestrian Site: $22 per night
Day Use / Picnic: $6 per day
