Cool spot right on the river. Fairly close to Salida, but road can be tough for trailers. Nice starry skies but a little highway noise.

Cool Spot

I’ve camped here many times and enjoy it. It’s hard to get to and impossible for big rigs, but if you’ve got somewhat of an adventurous spirit, it’s worth the trek. It’s right on the arkansas river, also right across from the road, which is a negative as it can be loud with road noise. There’s one vault toilet, so it’s really more like dispersed camping… though there are fire rings and tent pads now. Be careful to check local fire restrictions. You have to make a reservation online… and there is no cell service at this location.
