Gem on the river

Really enjoyed our 2 night stay here. Our site was great , lots of privacy and plenty of room for my parents camper and my tent! Walk right across to the river with spots to set up your chairs! The sites with hookups are very close together and not a lot of privacy but the non hook up area was great! The host was friendly and recommended a hiking trial for us, toilets were clean. Lots of people fishing in the morning and evening. It was a pretty quiet campground other than a little road noise but overall super peaceful. No phone signal here , which these days feels kind of nice , but you could get signal in Dolores if you needed it. Overall super relaxing stay … loved all the blue spruce and watching sunrises and sunsets in the valley along the river… would stay again!

I loved it but …

Stayed 3 nights! This is such a beautiful campground, right in the crystal river, tons of shade, huge camp sites with privacy. Our site really could have fit several tents and a camper…. And there was a little trail off to the side to get down to the water. Loved having coffee on the creek in the AM and wine in the PM. Easy to get to Carbondale, Redstone, and Marble from there. No service but that’s not a bad thing! I would really give it 5 stars but when I say the bathrooms smelled up the entire campground …. I mean constantly….. we wernt even super close to the toilets but we could smell them morning noon and night …. It was frustrating. I was in a tent and I wanted to small mountain air …. But I didn’t. When we walked around the campground i could smell it everywhere for all 3 days… so it wasn’t just our site. Kind of a bummer

Great stay!

Just a one night stay on our way headed north but wish we could have stayed longer… lots of sites that really have a lot of privacy and back right up to the forest. Also trails right if the campsite. Super well maintained and bathrooms were clean. Also huckleberry picking right from camp! Gorgeous area, will definitely go back again.
