Mid week after Labor Day. Site d92. Quiet. Flush restrooms are clean. Water spigots close. Power in site. Close to 550 for easy stop. However sites are small and close together. Somewhat level paved driveway. But site is terraced into the hill. 1 bar lte for T mobile If you were here for the lake it would rate higher.
Book it Now! This RV park will fill up quickly. Riverbend is a beautiful park in a fantastic location. What sets this park apart from others is the owners and camp hosts. The park's owners are exceptional; everything they do is done for the benefit of their guests.
A few examples include oversized RV sites, WiFi, and they even love dogs because they have an off-lease dog park. The camp hosts here are fantastic;
Rob and Becky and Kirby and Robin are two couples that truely went above and beyond. They are simply the best!
We had such a great time we invited several of our friends to come down and rent a cabin, which they all did, and we had an absolute blast! The most amazing trip ever!
Grand mesa is the largest mesa in the world. For over 150 years cattle have roamed here. They need to go. It is time. The diversity and wildlife will slowly be destroyed and it is exponential. The climate is changing and places like this need to to be protected they are our arks. No atvs no generators no cattle. Would improve.the place.ten fold. And absolutely no logging. Ban all fires! We are about to lose it all including Grand mesa. Wake up.
This is a review for the actual campground. As another review mentioned, there are dispersed sites up the road and many are nice but I stayed at the campground. There is a stream on one side of the campground and most of the sites are on that side of the loop. The sound is wonderful to sleep to. On the other side of the loop is where I stayed because the view was incredible. The camp host was great, everything was clean and well cared for and there was plenty of space between the sites so it didn't feel cramped. This is a first come first served campground.
 so it is a bit of a drive back. I probably went 9 miles was all alone spent a week hiking very reasonable rates for a senior citizen Road all the way back not too bad though no electric at the state campground, but there was access to water.
Bathrooms and showers are clean Wifi available and cellphone service are good Close to Black Canyon of the Gunnison
I've. been visiting this area of Colorado since childhood so it has special meaning for me. We remember the area BEFORE there was a reservoir! This campground doesn't disappoint! Our site had a view of Courthouse Peak. The area feels natural and sites are spaced out. We had water and electric. There's a dump station on site.
We only had one night here, it was the last night of the season for our area and the next nights were full.
Popular campground likely requires advance reservations for peak season.
Mostly empty in October. Good price $10. Close to town. Vault toilet.
Nicely developed state park. Only 4 stars due to lack of a bike path from CGs to day use beach.
This is a large state park campground with a lot of activity. The sites are mostly spaced out from each other but not much for trees for privacy. The loops are great for bike riding and walking. The restrooms were clean during our visit, however, there was a water leak problem on our day of departure so the bathrooms were all closed. We had one encounter with the host who made a rude comment at !2:05 when we were still hooking up our trailer for departure. I know, we were a few minutes late, but rude comments are not necessary.
This is a beautiful area for exploring, we always head down and explore Ouray. The reservoir is nice, just super windy so we couldn't paddle board during our visit.
We stayed at this campground for 3 nights over the 4th of July holiday. The location is excellent and has beautiful views of the mountains surrounding it. Town is close by and you can walk to it via the river walk that runs alongside the RV park. You can watch the fireworks right from the campground. The staff were extremely kind and helpful. The bathrooms were clean and the showers looked ok but we never used them so I can't say anymore about them. The campground is dog friendly. The downside is the sites are very close together. Some of the sites are a little larger so you would have a little more space. We had a picnic table and electric, sewer and water hookups. We had a river side site but we couldn't actually see the river due to the large berm behind the camper. We were able to use our gas fire pit so it was no big deal that they don't allow wood fires. They do rent gas firepits if you don't have one. All in all this was a nice campground. I would recommend it.
We had a great stay in a cabin for our little family and a tent for our other family party. Near each other and close to the bathrooms and playground. Kids loved the playground and jump pad! Close by to Ouray for great SXS and off-road trails. Must tow there with trailer. Beautiful scenery.
First come, first serve. About 15 sites, close together. 16 USD fee (honor system). Fire pits, picknick tables, bear box (saw black bear cub hanging around one afternoon). Lots of yellowjackets which was an annoyance. Chasm trail starts from camp site with amazing canyon views. Stargazing at night. Water available in summer.
The owners and family are great. Very friendly, helpful and area information. Seems to be a community stopping place as there are so few places to get supplies. The campground is very convenient location for the lake and rivers. Nice service of coffee and a few microwaved food options. It has a nice game room also. The views are great as the layout of the campground is terraced on a hillside. The sites are all parallel park so your door can have a view of the lake. The owner helps you get situated into the spot. The parking is gravel and level. But there is not much space between nose to tail other campers.
A lot of people say this campground contains 9 sites. That is incorrect. There are 12 sites! There are 4 additional sites up the road from Sites 1-8. Sites 10-12 are walk in camping. You must haul all of your stuff up the hill but the pluses are: no trailers/rvs and headlights shining into your tent as people depart in the early mornings, very isolated and only fellow tent campers allowed. I enjoyed hearing the sound of the creek every night as I fell asleep. We camped in site #12 and it was the farthest up the hill. We hauled all of our stuff up and down every day because there is a lot of bear activity in the area. My husband got a peek at him our second night and the campers at site 9 (down the hill) also were visited by him. Sites 10 and 11 share a bear box. Site 12 has their own box up the hill from the campsite. The biggest negative is that the walk to the vault toilet is 20 minutes round trip from Site 12. Cheap camping and a very unique experience. Highly recommend!
A great eat location to call home while exploring the area. Nice views at camp. Clean restrooms and showers! We spent a lot of time in Telluride, Ouray, and Silverton so we did not take advantage of the park. However, there was access to kayak, paddle board, and boat rentals. Great pad area and fire pit. Accommodated our tent well. Close to your neighbors, but not too crazy.
Very friendly and accommodating. Nicely shaded with all the amenities you need. If you are allergic to cottonwood trees, it could be an issue. Cotton was flying like snow.
Camping here was nice. Limited trees so summer can be rough in direct sunlight. Sites are okay size wise. Bathroom and shower facilities were clean. Very pretty area. Park staff were super friendly. 5 min from Ridgeway, 25 from Ouray, 45 from Telluride.
We work from home, so wifi and cell service are mandatory. I thought we would be good here since Dyrt said Verizon and wifi were good, but we were pulling our hair out at work. Internet barely worked and Verizon, T-Mobile and at&t had 1 bar and barely worked to hot spot.
Had a great time here for Fourth of July for how busy it was I still was able to find multiple marked dispersed sites still available. The quick walk to the lake was easy and the water was refreshing to swim in.
This place was absolutely wonderful!! Need more than 2 days to explore everything, Million Dollar Highway, Trials, Ouray itself!! So many things to do. Box Canyon…..so much. Excellent foodie town! Only downside to this campground is no wood burning fires!!! We couldn’t even use our Solo Stove! You can rent propane fire pits
Awesome staff, goats and donkeys milling about, and easy access to the great outdoors.
This campground has so much to offer families! Stunning views, private spaces nestled amidst trees, clean facilities, a great restaurant and two playgrounds! The staff are some of the sweetest and friendliest we’ve met. We’ll definitely be back.
This campground is at the North Rim of the canyon in a Pine and Juniper forest. It was rather quiet and peaceful considering most sites were occupied. I don't remember hearing anything at all. The trail to the rim is right behind the campground. It's a nice and cool spot during a hot summer. Great clear skies for stargazing.
Small KOA: very clean, lovely staff.
As a drop-in with no reservation, we were lucky to get a spot with awesome concrete pad and patio furniture right beside the river. Stayed an extra night because we liked it. We couldn't hear the road at all because of the high rushing spring river: perfect for sleep!
We enjoyed the paved bike bath all the way into Carbondale.
Carbondale is a nice town with some good restaurants.
We also enjoyed playing pickleball in Carbondale with the friendly local club. They have 8 outdoor courts with gorgeous (distracting for my game) views of the mountains.
Such a peaceful campground during shoulder season. The river and pond are were very nice to sit by and observe nature. The Canada geese families were fun to watch. Park is very well maintained and most sites are decent size. We camped next to the pond. Staff very welcoming. Propane on site and they fill. Laundry facilities a bit small.
This place is absolutely beautiful! Very clean. It was worth the money the only downfall was we didn’t have more time here. Oh and this town is amazing! We came from the desert so when we go out of the truck and it was 30 degrees and it got to 19 that night … winter has arrived just for us🙂
