Dutch George Campground is a Forest Service campground in the Canyon Lakes Ranger District of the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests in Colorado. It sits among a cluster of campgrounds and trails, with Narrows (CO) and Lower Narrows Campground both about a mile away. Vault toilets are the only listed amenity. A fee is charged for stays. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July highs around 79°F with lows near 56°F, while winter highs stay around 40°F. That station sits about 900 feet lower than the campground, so temperatures here run cooler. Sheep Mountain Trail is about a mile away, and The Beach climbing area is about 1.3 miles off. The Cache la Poudre River is about 2 miles away for fishing, and the South Fork Cache la Poudre River offers canoeing about 7 miles out.
