Creek fishing and fall color are the real draws here. September and October bring cooler temps, fewer mosquitoes, gold aspens along the water, and strong trout fishing with almost no competition for sites. At zero dollars a night, it's hard to argue.
No water, no toilets, and a maintenance record that means you may inherit broken glass or someone's abandoned gear. A few reviewers noted the vibe from other campers felt less than friendly, and solo travelers or families with kids might find that unwelcoming atmosphere a reason

Fall delivers the best window. Days run 40s to 60s, nights drop into the 20s and 30s. Bugs fade, aspens turn, and fishing stays strong with fewer people around. Late summer works but brings heat and insects. Be aware of hunting seasons if you visit September through October and wear blaze orange on any hikes. Winter buries the campground in snow.
Fall 'best window': aspens turn, bugs fade, fishing remains strong and fewer people around.
