We don't have a Keystone yet but here are some of my faves with our Chalet:
Pearl Lake State Park, CO
When we lived in Denver, we camped at Pearl Lake State Park many times. That was back in the early 70's. At that time the campground was nestled among a group of tall virgin fir trees and the lake was so clear you could see the bottom in 50' of water. Across the highway and just a bit further north was a "new reservoir" called Steamboat Lake. There was no campground at the time and if you wanted, you just set up camp at most any level spot along the shoreline. Steamboat Lake had only been there for a few years. Both were excellent places to camp and to get away from the craziness of Denver. The town of Steamboat Springs, back then, had only 2 or 3 ski runs and no "major" resorts. It was a sleepy little town where everyone gathered at the local bar at night to "pass the bull". If you didn't wear a leather vest and a Stetson, you felt out of place. My how times have changed.....
We bought some land further north from Pearl Lake back then and haven't even seen it in the past 35 years or so. We plan to swing through the area this summer. I hear that things have changed so much we won't recognize anything. For sure, gone are the leather vests, Stetson hats and unfortunately, from your picture, those big fir trees from Pearl Lake

Wow...would love to have seen it then.
It's definitely a LOT different now, both in the town and in the campgrounds. Steamboat Lake State Park is a big, popular park and totally full when we were there. Pearl Lake was more like a National Forest Service campground, quaint and quiet. It's probably one of our favorite places we've ever camped.
Yes, they have taken out many, many trees to try to combat bark beetle, especially in the upper loop. But quite a lot remain, especially on the lower loop and around the lake.
Although it sounds like it's changed, the area is still breathtakingly beautiful. Like something out of a postcard. You're very lucky to have land there.
Hi, I see you have a Bullet Premier, have you had it for long?
Do you like it?
Thanks! I wonder if Keystone will pay off my trailer in exchange for using the photo
I do like my Premier. Of course it is a 2011 and there have been newer features added to the newer models but it still works for me. Been reliable as well.

Grandkids and my Daughters and Son in Laws plus Wife and I had a great time at Cajun Palms in Henderson, La. 90 degrees this past weekend but the waterpark and the 2 AC's in the Fuzion kept everyone cool.
