Bellaire Lake Campground is located in the lovely and popular Red Feather Lakes region. The campground is within walking distance of the lake via a wheelchair accessible boardwalk. The area is comprised of unique rock formations and views of the mountains. This campground was heavily impacted by the mountain pine beetle; consequently most campsites have very limited shade. Fishing is available at Bellaire Lake and nearby Dowdy and West Lakes. Each site contains a tent pad, fire grate and picnic table. All campsites with a tent pad have a bear locker. Single sites, double sites and triple sites are available. Electrical hookups are available at some sites.
