About
Overview
Marshall Park Campground is situated in an open meadow on the Rio Grande River with views of Bristol Head Peak and the La Garita Mountains. Campers enjoy trout fishing, boating and the area's diverse wildlife. It also makes for a great base camp for hunters in the area.
Recreation
Anglers will find an abundance of rainbow trout in the Rio Grande, which is considered a trophy river. The river also welcomes wading and exploration. Off-road vehicle trails are nearby as well.
Facilities
Amenities include picnic tables and campfire rings. An accessible vault toilet with a night light is provided. Firewood may be purchased from the host. Campfire programs are presented periodically throughout the summer.
No drinking water is available. Campers must bring their own supply.
Natural Features
The campground is located about 7 miles southwest of Creed, Colorado at an elevation of 8,800 feet. Campsites are open with few trees. The sun hits the campground in the late morning, after cool early morning temperatures.
Rio Grande National Forest spans 1.86 million acres in south-central Colorado. The Continental Divide runs for 236 miles along most of the forest's western border, presenting a myriad of ecosystems from alpine desert to rugged wilderness.

Is MARSHALL PARK fully booked?
A campground showing no availability is almost never full for good. People cancel — plans change, weather turns, someone books three weekends and keeps one — and the site goes straight back into the booking system, usually without warning and often at odd hours. The reason sold-out campgrounds feel impossible is not that sites never free up; it is that nobody is watching at the moment they do.
CampHawk watches MARSHALL PARK in Creede, CO for you. We recheck it every 15 seconds, around the clock, and the moment a site opens we send a text, an email and a push notification — and on Recreation.gov we can put the site straight into your cart, so it is held while you get to your phone.
Searching is free and needs no account — the calendar above is live right now. Watching MARSHALL PARK for cancellations is the paid part.
