The Best Camping Near Deckers, Colorado

Easily accessible from the main road, easy pull in with lots of flat sites. Maybe 8-10 sites total. Only half available during COVID restrictions. 

A little exposed but right off the river.

We were looking for dispersed camping in the area with our first time 5 yr old camper.  We didn’t find any (roads were still closed for the season, but thought we might get lucky because it’s been dry and warm) so a ranger told us about this campground. It’s really close to the road, but if you’re there early enough you can get a site closest to the river and it likely drowns out some of the noise.  Port-o-let’s were clean and host was kind. Firewood is available, but we didn’t need it. 

Good for a quick night 

Right on the river, exactly as I hoped. Backed my car up to the barrier and had a lovely time. Outhouses. Trash dumpster. Peaceful and perfect for relaxing. Lovely views, and did I mention you can just walk all over in the river?

Great for fishing 

Great place for riverside camping. However, bring your own shade. it was very hot and sunny with little respite. However the proximity to the river was great.

nice but little shade

Nice area, clean sites, clean restrooms, close to the river, lots of trees. 



Nice 

This wasn't the campground we were supposed to stay at, but our spot was not ready, so we were able to stay here while we waited. 
Our 39ft motorhome fit okay, but I wouldn't recommend much more than a smaller trailer for this area. It does get packed on the weekend, even in the snow.  There a several sites near the water and some closer to the road side. It's a beautiful area but it is a small Campground so keep that in mind. 
The only amenities available are a fire pit and picnic table.
