The tent is heated but because of the unpredictable and sometimes dangerous weather you need to be prepared. The bathroom is also outdoors so there will not be a shower provided till after the freezing weather. And the loo is not heated. It is also recommended that you have all wheel drive or 4 wheel drive to get to the campsite in the winter. It is possible to walk from road to site. But you should consider this when booking.

Founded in 1955 as a campground, amusement park and pay to fish lake, lake lucy has a rich history of having families spending time together.
After the death of lake lucys founder Raymond Mealy in 2007 the amusements and train were all removed as well as the zoo.
The Steinman family purchased the property in 2017 and began remodeling the pavilion and putting in water and sewer lines to be able to use the campground and pavilion again.
It has been a place for the Steinman and Mealy families and friends
to enjoy for the last few years and we felt it was time to once again welcome the public to enjoy our property!

We loved our stay here!
Hosts- Very friendly and easy to communicate with
Location- fantastic! Cooks forest and the state park nearby have so much to do and offer. This campsite was perfectly placed in it!
Campsite - we loved the campsite. First, we loved the privacy of having 360 view of trees. It definitely beats crowded campsites nearby. Second, they have a swing which was fun to swing on. The Fire pit was also great and we loved how many picnic tables there were. Campsite also had about 1 bar lte Verizon but I had no issues loading anything on my phone. We were able to watch movies which was what I was hoping for! I 10/10 recommend camping here

Richard is the best, most accommodating, communicative host. He went out of his way to get me what I needed. The site is as advertised, bring a good sleeping pad. I would go back in a heartbeat. He also has an RV if you need a mattress and on demand hot water. Definitely give Richard's site a stay!

This was our first time using hipcamp, and Josh’s spot certainly did not disappoint! Close to everything Clear Creek (and Cook Forest) has to offer, but far away from people. It was perfect! We had a fantastic time and will be returning soon.

Kate’s land was a pleasure to camp on! The hike from parking to the site was uphill and rugged- best for those with hearty vehicles or comfort hiking in (Kate met me with a side by side to cart my heavy things up initially).
The view is epic.

Josh's spot is spectacular for solitude. It is on the edge of the forest at the end of loop of spacious "camps". The road in is definitely rocky, but we managed with our 26' class C just fine going slow and steady. The spot had all the amenities listed and they worked as they should. Depending on what time of year you go, you should be prepared for it to be wet. There are creeks surrounding the property and the parking and campfire areas can hold some water. Overall a great experience and hope to be back again soon!

This was our second stay at Burnhead Grazings. This is our favorite place to overnight when bikepacking the Ghost Town and Hoodlebug Trails. Moire is a friendly and wonderful hostess who is always happy to see us. The farm is beautiful. Overall, it’s one of the most peaceful and scenic places to pitch a tent. I highly recommend it.

Very beautiful place to spend the night! Arrived late in the night and still had no issues finding where to go(thanks to the YouTube orientation video). Campsite was very clean and well taken care of. The common area was fantastic and the coffee was super convenient after I realized I forgot to pack my own.

A perfect way to mix up your camping experiences. The building is in rough shape so don’t plan on entering. Camp site is private and sets you up for a one of a kind night under the stars.
