Grandview Campground is a Forest Service campground in the Canyon Lakes Ranger District of the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests in Colorado. It is managed by the Forest Service and sits within the forest's network of ranger districts. The most comfortable months for a visit are typically July and August, when typical averages from a nearby weather station run from a high of 74°F to 72°F with lows around 41°F to 43°F. That station sits a few hundred feet lower than the campground, so temperatures here run slightly cooler. The campground makes a good base for exploring the surrounding area. Neota Creek is about a mile away, and La Poudre Pass Creek offers canoeing at about 1.7 miles. Long Draw Campground and the Specimen Ditch Trail are both within about 2.5 miles.
