Description

Overview

This campground offers 29 first-come, first-served Scan & Pay campsites. Sites are best for tent camping due to unpaved roads, steep hills and short pull-ins. Although not a full-service campground, Meeker Park Overflow Campground tends to fill to capacity on weekends due to its proximity to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park. 

Facilities

Picnic tables, fire rings, and portable toilets are provided.  There is no drinking water, electricity, hook-ups, dump stations, or showers. All campsites with a tent pad have a bear locker.
