From jct US 285 & Hwy 17: Go 5 mi W on Hwy 17.
Our campsite was everything we needed. The whole place needs paint and repairs. The bathroom was old, dirty, and needed repairs. The sign on the highway was unreadable. I would be embarrassed.
OMG!!! Elk, right outside the cabin windows! We spent an afternoon at Cumbres Adventures snow mobiling and an afternoon cross country skiing on some forest trails! These cabins were perfect! Not in a crazy ski lodge town but close enough (1.5hrs to red river or 2hrs to pagosa springs) if you wanted personal space.
The river was about 30ft from the front door. Snow covered the landscape all around us.
Jim was a fantastic host (I didnt meet the Mrs.). The cabin worked well for the 4 of us. Looking forward to coming some spring/summer to try some fly fishing.
Giant cottonwoods offer cool summertime shading. Surrounded by the twin rivers of the Conejos. Quiet, serene getaway offers several cabins and plenty of RV spaces. Only walking distance to the fly shop and world class trout fishing.
Old old photos of this scary place. When you pull in, the sign indicates what you are about to experience. The showers are so, so filthy and mold and mildew laden. I would NOT I repeat NOT even use the toilet. The grounds are so filthy and filled with mosquitoes because of stagnant water. The owners have mostly full time residents and not needing new true RV campers. They should NOT be in business. Sad, but so filthy. Please try any of the other numerous beautiful camp sites.
I am not an experienced user of RV/Trailer campgrounds. I stayed with a friend in his medium-sized towed camper. The setting seemed nice enough, but the public buildings (restrooms, showers, laundry) seemed to me to be very run down and in need of maintenance. I imagine the cabins available for rent are much better.
