Pretty Location
Stayed at site #20 in early June. Elevation around 8400 feet. Beautiful Spring green foliage on the aspens. Clean vault toilets with tp. One potable water station with hand pump. No water & electric hook ups. There is also trash service in-season. The host, Mike, was very helpful. Firewood for sale at $8/bundle. The campground consists of a handful of sites in an open field, suitable for big rigs, with the remainder of the sites back in the woods which are more suitable to tent, van, car & truck campers. Each site has a metal fire ring and table. Some of the sites in the woods are on a slight slope. Beautiful views of nearby mountains & meadow. Cimarrona Creek runs along side of the campground; fishing doesn't appear to be good in it. Fishing is better south of Williams Creek Reservoir - about 5 miles away. The Cimarrona trail head is behind site #18; this trail leads up into the Weminuche Wilderness area.

Cimarrona is still one of my favorites
Many of the campsites here are large and there’s plenty of shade.

Hidden gem
This campground is an amazing hidden gem. Twenty sites with some great selections.
I was surprised to see that it was never full. It got close on Saturday with people waiting for a site at Teal down the road first thing Sunday. The host Bob is a wonderful host, very laidback and helpful. He keeps an immaculate campground. I will definitely return to Cimaronna.
