Best RV Parks & Resorts near La Jara, CO

This is the best rv park in Red River. The river runs right through the park. There is a trout pond, playground, pavilion with live music on most Fridays during the summer and they also have condos and cabins. The staff is so helpful and friendly. If you want to get out of the heat of the summer this is the place to be. Red River is 8,750’ above sea level in the mountains. Daytime temp is in the 70°s and nights are in the 50°s all summer long.

Absolutely love the RV Resort! Very friendly and helpful staff! The internet here is outstanding. I only have one complaint....this was our first time here and our GPS took us down a washboard dirt road called Deep Creek Road...wish they had warned us to stay on 149 through Creede!

[Internet. Didn’t need it so I didn’t test it.]

Dump station? - no but sites were full hookups Water fill? - no but sites were full hookups Clean site? - 🤷🏼‍♀️ Clean bathroom? - no. But with flip flops the hot showers and warm bathrooms served their purpose in the bitter cold winter. Just don’t expect a working lock on either of the Women’s shower doors. Flush toilet? - yes Showers? - yes, hot

Why did we stay? We visited Great Sand Dunes NP and had planned to stay at the dry campground called Zapata Campground. We had been having issues with our diesel heater and needed electricity to plug in our electric 120 heater. This RV park had all the creature comforts and a gas station. Buuuuutttt it was sketchy.

This is a larger RV Park. They provide full hookups, spaces for tent camping, and some small cottages. I have not used their restrooms, but the laundry is clean and reasonably priced. Many of the spaces are pretty close together, but we’ve had worse! They have nice picnic tables and fire pits. There is a creek that runs behind the park and the spaces along this creek cost more. We stayed in Space 20; which is supposed to have the creek behind it (so we paid more), but there’s a bunch of electrical boxes there so you can’t see it or access it and there’s also a huge manhole sticking up in our space! So don’t take Space 20 unless you are desperate! That is the reason for my 4 rating. The grass is sparse, but there are big grassy areas throughout the park. Some of the spaces have the shade of large trees. I would stay here again, but would avoid #20.

Staff is great, several full hook up RV pull through sites, cleans bathrooms and showers. The view of the Dunes from the RV area is wonderful and only four mile from the entrance to the National Park. Good rates compared to others in the area. Zapata Falls is less than 10 miles away, Alamosa is thirty minutes. The views just driving this area are amazing and Mt Blanca is breathtaking.

Great place for full hook up spots in South Fork. They also have great trails close that you can drive to via atv or ohv's. Wonderful views all around from our campsites! Great mom and pop business that is reasonably priced.

We had just spent two nights along the highway due to RV needing repairs. We picked the first RV Park we could find. Fortunately, they could accommodate us, but it was a less than desirable place. First, it was extremely tight access; we had to ask a neighbor to move his truck. It was a full hookup, but the tap was broke so we had to tap into the neighbor’s waterline with a splitter. You can’t choose your neighbors but many in the park gave us concerns for our safety. We had to park our truck at the end of the park due to the limited space... wish more RVers would have been as considerate. We didn’t use any of the facilities so can’t comment on cleanliness. There is a large open trench by the trash cans, so watch out if you have children.

This campground is so conveniently close to the national park. The property was well-maintained and clean. The staff were very friendly. And, there was a restaurant, gift shop and equipment rental shop on the property.

Our RV spot had full hookups but the sites were so closely spaced that there was no room for a picnic table or outdoor seating. The bathrooms were modern, clean, and with hot showers.

Joined the family down in Chama, NM for a fun 4-day, 3-night stay at this RV park. Good size RV park with all the amenities you need to camp with your RV, Tent or rent a cabin. Friendly staff and clean restrooms and showers. The owners have a spot right at the park and are very nice. Rio Chama river runs right next to the park so you can fish or wade through the creek. We have a roof top tent so we reserved a back in RV site. We were parked right next to the power sub-stations so at night we heard buzzing from the electrical boxes. The owner allowed us to move to the tent sites so that solved that issue. We didn't need any of the hookups so no biggie. They had no problem with us moving there. No bugs and the temperature was reasonable in the 80s and cooled down to 60-55 at night. Pack rain gear if you're camping in July/Aug because the monsoon flows up with some pretty good t-storms. Chama is a nice little town that draws train riders from all over to ride The Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad into Colorado.

Beautiful campground with level sites. Come prepared, it is in the middle of downtown so a lot of traffic noise of loud cars racing down the road and it is right next to the railroad tracks. The train whistle is deafening and will rattle your teeth. 5 trains came by the one night, one as late as 10 pm. Campground is gated. Super friendly staff, We didn’t use or look at the showers and other facilities. Full hookups with great water pressure.

Would give five stars, but right on the main road through the San Luis Valley so it's a little loud, and bright at night. That said, it's still peaceful, and the people are nice. Has shower and laundry for guests, and full hookups for RVs. It's $30 per night or $199 a week, we stayed two days, and would stay again. They allow pets, but have a strict "no pit bulls" dog policy. So unless your "pit bull" is a service dog, they can't stay. Unfortunately dog breeds and temperaments are still misunderstood, but that aside, good people, and nice little place to stay.

Nice park nestled at the foot of the mountains and on the banks of the Red River. Nicely landscaped with two ponds and a river walk. Location is great for visiting Rio Grande del Norte NM and the Wild Rivers Recreation Area. Just north of Taos too. Nicely shaded, level sites with full hookups. Nice picnic table and grill. Might be a little tight for big rigs, but my little Casita was quite happy. Very friendly folks in the office. Clean laundry and restroom. My site backed up to the river and the sound of the rushing water was the perfect lullaby.

Stayed 3 days back in March 2020. This is a well maintained no thrills RV park in the desert region of Colorado. Flat and level spaces that can accommodate any size RV. Large clean laundry facility and clean restroom and showers. Beautiful at night watching the stars but WINDY WINDY WINDY during the day. Good location to access dunes and south west park of Colorado. Did I say it was windy here!? It’s windy!

This campground provided lots of space between sites. There are no hookups, but there are pit toilets, running water, picnic tables, and fire pits. You can fit larger RVs in the spaces on the upper loops of the campground. Ours is 28’ and there was probably 10-15 feet of extra space. The camp host was great and did a good job of keeping everything clean. If you need to dump your tanks in Chama, the Little Creel will let you dump in an empty RV space for $10.

We booked here last minute on a holiday weekend and we were thankful they had a spot for us! The campground parking area is just that. It’s a place to park for the night, with full hook ups. No wifi. The location can’t be beat! Views are incredible! The bath house was clean. There is a store and restaurant in property. They also have cabins to rent. . My only complaint…this is a dark sky area with expansive views of the sky and the opportunity to see the Milky Way. This is not something g I get to see at home! However, all the giant campers had their bright lights on at night and it really messed with viewing of the sky. I wish there was a rule of no outside lights at night. It’s unnecessary! If you are one of those people that leave your lights on when you go in for the night, please reconsider!

The RV park is extremely quiet and pet friendly. We extremely enjoyed our three day stay. We have already started planning for a return trip.  They also have cabins for people to stay in it, traveling without their RV/tent. 

Nice campground and super hosts! RV park is well maintained with big areas for dogs to play. Close to grocery and restaurants, hiking, fishing, ATV! Internet is not great. ATT Cell phone coverage sporadic.

Pretty campground surrounded by mountain ranges. Services are limited-campsites have power but potable water is not available at the park. RV Park and store in nearby Blanca will let you fill up for $4. Communal dump station at park entrance. Sites were spacious and level. Only loop A has lake views, but not much to see.
Campers have to get a state wildlife pass ($42) which gives you a year of camping in state wildlife areas, or a year hunting or fishing license also gives access. Limit 14 days.

We love it here so much we came back another year. Great RV park everything works as it should. You're spaced out so you're not on top of your neighbors. Everything is well maintained. The owners are wonderful people as well.

Spaces are fairly close together and lots of people as one would expect at an RV park. It is along the Chama River and some decent shade if your space is in the cottonwoods. We stayed here due to all the NM National Forests being closed due to fire danger.

This was nice well maintained rv Park. Really nice sites if you can get on the river. The owners were very nice and really seemed to care about guests and maintaining the park. Kids had a lot fun playing in creek and park very close to Red River, NM so there is a lot todo. In town at ski resort.

Great RV park in east walking distance to DT Alamosa. We walked to coffee place in the mornings and farmers market Saturday. Great clubhouse with super clean bathrooms and showers, workout room, puzzles and couches. Little green for golf. Only reason it wasn’t a 5* is that you do hear road noise - we got lucky with the train and didn’t wake us, but as others said, is right on the tracks. Would definitely recommend if you are visiting the area.
