We did not have a reservation when we arrived (7/9 - 7/12). There are some sites that can be reserved- check online while there are others that are FCFS. We decided to go with site #41 ($19/night) which was very close to a vault toilet and water spigot. All sites are pull-up with tent space, metal picnic table, fire pit with grill plate. It is located on hwy 82, 4 miles from Weller Lake campground if you're heading towards Aspen town. Where there are aspen trees around, our site didn't have much. Sites are average-sized, with privacy from neighboring sites. It is near the Roaring Fork River, just a little hike from our site which had a walking trail that lead to it. It is bear country so they advise that you store your food/coolers in the bear boxes they provide. We never came across any bears though. Drive into Aspen on 82 is about 3 miles or 10 minutes.

Difficult is beautifully nestled in the White River national forest. We reserved 5 campgrounds side by side for our annual 4th of July trip and had an amazing time! A bike ride into Aspen is about 4 miles downhill and incredibly beautiful. We didn't let the kids ride it however because you have to ride on the highway for about 200 yards. The campsites were far enough off the driveway to almost be secluded and they were cozy because they were surrounded by so many trees. We were able to get two tents and a canopy in each site with plenty of room for dining and campfire chairs. We hiked on the trail system that branches out from the campground and had amazing views next to the stream.

The only compaint I have is that the reservation system (reserveamerica) told us that the larger group campsite was unavailable but when we got there it was wide open and would've been much better for a group of our size.
