Accessible via highway access, this dispersed camping area operates as a large open circle where campers set up along the perimeter. The Forest Service site accommodates large RVs and offers plenty of space for turning around, though the circular layout places campers in close proximity to each other during busy weekends.
The Dolores River provides direct water access from the camping area. Verizon cell service is unavailable at this location. Campers seeking more boondocking options around San Juan National Forest will find this setup works well for groups comfortable with minimal privacy and highway noise from the adjacent road.
