Bighorn RV Park
John Blea
Well I will start at the beginning of our crazy trip. My family and I were heading to camp north of salida when our tow vehicle gave out just a half a mile from the bighorn to the west. I had my 19 year daughter and her boyfriend walk back the bighorn to see if there was any spots available. To my surprise one of the owners Aaron came to are rescue and towed us to an open site. Which gave me a chance to rescue our vacation and alow my family to have there well deserved vacation rest. For the camp ground it is a 10 out of 10, the owners and amazing grounds keeps have made a bad trip in to on of our most favorite and loved trip ever. To Aaron his wife Brenda and Rhea as well as Aaron's lovely mother thank you so much for allowing use to be apart of your amazing camping experience.

Great place. The hotel is in no way a 5 star, but for what it is it is a 10. Staff is wonder, friendly, accommodating and attentive. I would love to revisit this area and stay here again.

Very relaxing stay. Awesome owners were super friendly. River access and a pool were great for my kids.

We were really disappointed by our recent experience with this camping community. During our last stay, our family was respectful, followed the rules, and paid a significant amount of money to be there. Unfortunately, there were issues caused by other people that were completely out of our control, yet we are now being denied the opportunity to return. What makes this especially upsetting is that my daughter wanted to celebrate her 5th birthday here because she loved it so much the first time. Instead of being treated fairly as returning guests, we were essentially punished for circumstances we did not create. We understand communities need rules and standards, but it’s frustrating when loyal, respectful families are not given the benefit of the doubt or even a chance to explain. We truly enjoyed the location itself, which is why this situation has been so disappointing.

This is our 4th year camping at Bighorn RV Park, the owners are one of the many reasons we come back! There always up to share a good story or give advice on 4wheelin trails or anything else you want to go do. You won't find a better location at the river. We always get the lower tent spots, the river and mountains are what we wake up to literally 15 feet away. The park is super clean, and not far from town, The fly fishing is great, this years weather is unusual, but not stopping the fish! Highly recommend, they have everything! Tent spots with power, ample RV parking spaces, including pull through and back in. All RVs have full hook up! Mini bunk houses sitting up over the river, just walk out onto the porch for a great view! Cabins plus a great picnic area with grills and a small boat launch. Summer time there is an in ground swimming pool, and a great kids playground!

Stayed using an RV (C Class). Well appointed and professionally run. Access to the river for fishing. Bathroom facilities are very clean and well cared for. Park hosts and staff are friendly and welcoming. Road noise can be a little loud occasionally. Have not stayed in the rooms but based upon the rest of the park, I would think they are also well maintained.

Great RV campground! It's a beautiful area and so close to the river. The restrooms are clean and that's nice when you travel to have clean restrooms. There is fishing access to the river and it's so pretty. We stayed in our camper but they have cabins and great tent camping spots as well. Unfortunately we did have to walk our dogs in the dark and I ran into a pole sticking out of the ground that is used for horse shoes so use a flashlight when walking in the dark. Overall a great spot and we were visiting from Colorado Springs and we'll definitely stay here again.

I have driven past this campground several times over the years on vacations. This year I decided to book a night. What a great decision! The owner is so welcoming and helpful. We had an easily accessible full hookup site. The hookups all worked great. The pool is very nice and the restrooms are spotless. Being able to walk down to the river was awesome. We enjoyed sitting in our lawn chairs watching the sunset from the yard area by the pool. I have always enjoyed campgrounds like this one where the owners take pride in providing a great camping experience. Headed toward Salida? Stay here! My highest recommendation!

We’ve stayed at Bighorn 3 times now, camping at campsites #1 and #2 down by the river and it has been absolutely fantastic. Brenda and Aaron are the best! Their motto of customer first shows every time. The bathroom/showers are always clean, a requirement for the wife. The Campsites are right on the water and secluded from the RV park and the view of the river and canyon hills on the other side is breathtaking. With a little luck you can see bighorn sheep visiting the river to drink. We are checking out tomorrow and plan to make our reservations next July for our 4th visit. Thanks Brenda and Aaron!

Great place to stay. I was only there for two days but they are very welcoming. Had a chance to fish the river there at the campground and had great luck both days. The average size of the trout was 17 inches. It's not far from Canyon city or the Royal Gorge.

I have always wanted to camp here because it looked to cozy n clean. I finally got to camp there and it was everything I expected. It was clean, affordable and such a beautiful view. The staff were awesome! Can't wait to go there again!

This place... omg. We camp non-stop, this is one of my absolute favorite commercial campgrounds, period. The owners are absolutely fantastic, it's right on the river, they even have a sand beach, lol. The bathrooms are immaculate, and the hot water lasts for days. It's commercial, so the RV sites aren't massive, but they're better than most. Stay here, you'll come back.

We stayed in our camper right next to very clean bathrooms, showers and laundry facilities. Shower had plenty of hot water. Views are extraordinary, especially of the Arkansas River, which is just a short distance from our campsite. Sat with my feet and legs in the sparkling pool. The owners are the best at looking after you, answering all of my questions and making you feel as though you've been friends for ages. Highly recommend.

Brenda and Aaron (the owners) are absolutely exceptional!!! They have been super accommodating and friendly! They have gone out of their way to make sure my family had everything we needed for our stay here! The rooms are very clean and cute, definitely recommended staying here! Amazing resort, the views are out of this world. Thank you for being here!!! ♡

Brenda and Aaron are wonderful and kind owners. Willing to do anything to accommodate us. It is a safe and secure park and everyone is extremely friendly. The bathrooms are super clean. Great setting along the river. We will always choose this RV park when in the area.
