TravelerOverall good
Beautiful campground, great campsites, only issue was toilet paper not being restocked almost entirety of 4 day stay.
GuideGreat views and decent space
The campsite has an awesome view of the mountains and at some sites the river as well. If your not by the river you don't get much shade. Most importantly the address is incorrect while trying to find your way here use the coordinates they are correct

TravelerPeaceful cg on the river
It’s further than I thought but worth $28 after a week boondocking. You’re meant to make reservations so I did but there’s a lot of empty spots. I’d like to stay longer.

Directions
The exit for Ruby Mountain is located south of Buena Vista on U.S. Highway 285, between mile markers l44 and 145. Turn east (towards the river) on Chaffee County Road 301, which can be identified by the large, yellow River Runners signs. Go across the river to the end of the pavement and turn right onto County Road 300. Drive 2.4 miles to the Ruby Mountain Campground and Recreation Site. Caution should be used when entering the campground because the road is a narrow single lane, with limited visibility and a 15 mph speed limit.
