Campgrounds still open between September and May have no services (water, electric, trash pick up or rest rooms). Please keep them clean and pack it out. Thanks! Cimarrona Campground is 2.3 miles north of Teal Campground on Forest Rd. 640, above the reservoir and near the end of the road. The campground has 21 sites; a few can handle large-sized RVs. There are sunny and shady sites; a couple are well shaded. The campground is next to Cimarrona Creek, with views of the meadow and reservoir to the south. It’s only a short walk to fish in the creek. The campground is adjacent to the Cimarrona Trailhead.
In Pagosa Springs, CO, at intersection of US 160 and Piedra Rd. (County Rt. 600), take Piedra Rd. north 13 miles to "Y" intersection. Continue straight on Piedra Rd. and go 3.2 miles to another "Y" intersection. Bear left, staying on Piedra Rd., and go 1.8 miles to still another "Y" intersection. Continue on Piedra Rd. and go 5.6 miles to campground sign. Turn right into campground.
Camp ground was fantastic. Bathrooms were spotless. If it wasn't for the wind the whole 4 day weekend, the trip would have been perfect.
This campground is a gem. Beautiful vistas and the smell of sugar pine and lots of Aspens. The vault toilets are super clean, and the current hosts David and Pam are very nice. The portable water pump had very good tasting drinking water, and you are surrounded by fantastic hiking trails. Absolutely loved it.
One of the best campgrounds I’ve stayed in CO. Gorgeous views and great access to nearby hikes. The campground itself offered private sites, clean/fresh bathrooms, and GREAT drinking water. The campground is worth the trip from Pagosa.
The only campsite open for Autumn camping. Beautiful aspens, a creek, hiking, a reservoir right down the road for fishing and wading and beautiful views makes this site a great option for those hoping to camp past mid September.
I love this campground. It is very beautiful and even though it is a little way away from the lake you have a fantastic view of it. The campground host did a great job keeping everything clean and in order.
