About Cutthroat Bay Group Campground

Overview

Natural Features

The campground is situated on the northern shore of Lake Granby, at an elevation of 8,300 feet. Afternoon thunderstorms should be expected during the summer months.

Due to the mountain pine beetle infestation and consequent removal of hazardous trees, the campground provides no natural shade.
