Beautiful Forest Setting with Plenty of Quiet
We spent three nights at One Mile Campground and are already looking forward to returning. Our site was level, very quiet, roomy, and comfortable with a lovely mix of sun and shade due to the surrounding trees. It was a treat to have an electrical hook up for our 30 foot trailer in a national forest campground. And as an added bonus, we were close enough to the towns of Almont and Gunnison to drive to for essentials we needed and to take a cooking break one night and have dinner at the wonderful Garlic Mike's. The campground sits right across the highway from the beautiful and currently rip roaring Taylor River where there were was much rafting, kayaking and fishing happening. The campground is very clean, with the pit toilets being the most immaculate we've sat in! Danielle was our campground host, and the care she took of the place was obvious. Best of all, she was one of those special hosts who was friendly and always available to help, but not the looky-loo, always in-your-face type. When we return, we hope she will still be hosting.
Great Spot
30 bucks a night... some highway noise as this is situated right off the highway
Great for Stargazing!
We had a wonderful time at this campground. Absolutely beautiful scenery and rushing Taylor River provides a nice background. Stargazing was incredible. Sites were a decent distance from one another, and it was a quiet campground even in the height of the summer. Only toilets are available, no sinks or showers etc, but the hosts keep everything very clean. Water available only at a few sites, but there is a faucet available near the bathrooms for water. Awesome campground if you love to raft or fish!
