Was surprised for $28.00 a night, there was no trash cans in the campground or area. Had to pack all trash back out. Site was nice, but does not have any shade. Would not stay again due to cost.

Have stayed in sites 1112 and 1113 as a group when rafting Browns Canyon many times over the years. Beautiful location. Well maintained. Be sure to reserve early. We love this campground.

Drove thru, wouldn't stay there. Certainly wouldn't pay what they want to be there... Colorado has a heightening fetish with using boulders to limit parking access. Most spots are far from level. Bad vibes when its "managed" this way. Hard pass for me.

Beautiful, well maintained campsites on the river. Clean pit toilets available. Campsites have decent privacy and space between. With the river sound in the background, it helps dampen noise from your neighbors nearby. Great spot for rafting overnights/logistics! Att cell range coverage is good.

Great, well laid out campsite tucked a good 15 mins off the highway and by the Arkansas River. Well maintained dirt road access. Some steeps and curves but nothing scary, just take your time. The river side sites have trails down to the river (maybe50 feet below). Great views and very quiet at night. No water or electric so bring everything you need. RV spots are well maintained and pretty level. Each site has a tent site too along with picnic table. We live about 1.5h away and this is a regular weekend bolt hole for us. With Salida and it's great restaurants and biking just down the road this campsite will remain a favorite in the area.

Well we didn't stay and camp but we did pay the day-use fee and let the kids play on the rocks at the water for a couple hours. Not too far off the highway and was a great rest stop. I will say $9 for the day use felt a bit steep but they did have bathrooms and changing rooms so there is some service provided. Very beautiful spot to hang out with numerous people fly fishing in the river.

Cfm below 300. Still nice spot to visit

Place is beautiful and well maintained- the only thing in the negative column is most of the sites have no coverage. Bring a canopy or some type of bivy tarp.

Beautiful canyon and campgrounds. A little tight for bigger RVs. Also charge 9 dollars a day for parking on top of camping fee. Easy walk to the river.

Reservation ONLY, which carries an $8 fee, on top of the $28 for campsite. A bit steep when there's not even a water faucet or a trash can! (I did not stay here) And it's now $9 just to park in the dirt parking lot for the day. I did have fun hiking down to Seidel's Suck Hole, to watch the rafts, though.
