Beautiful location on the banks of the Rio Grande. Great Owners and beautiful facilities whether you’re renting a cabin or RV spot. Onsite fishing pond with monster trout!

Beautiful campground. Clean and wonderfully decorated. The laundry has an amazing washers, so we could do a week’s worth in one go.

We checked in with expectations, in the title it says resort. When I read online there was a fishing pond and a hot tub I was excited to relax. My husband wanted a pull thru which we got AWAY from the resort. We found out, after check in, you have to pay $12. A day plus $5. a fish from their inlet/pond off the river, not incl in the price (Disappointed) Planned on dropping a line there, while the guys were off at the many mines and panning. Brought a bottle of wine for myself to sit in a hot tub too. Nope, somehow hot tub is a sauna to them. (Disappointed) When we checked in the camp man said we weren't going to have water (in my mind, I was oh? Well u can give me 1/2 my $ back too) because when you go to a full hook up place when your camping(that's a given) If I wanted to dry camp there are viable options- right off the river. And last but not least there's a food truck in there- serves breakfast till 9am - because we showed up round that time and they were on their last of everything(his wife- had stepped away and w/o her there's no more fresh cooked food?) wow 😲 disappointing for a resort? Now, something I didn't expect was the town of Creede is closed on Sunday and Monday. (Gas station & grocery store is open) So as a women wanting to grab a coffee, book, shopping etc maybe a pedi not till Tuesday. So the underground museum mine was cool on Tuesday and Last chance mine was awesome 💯 on Saturday. Sure like anywhere in Colorado you can go ATV riding, renting jeeps, fishing, fly fishing, hiking etc.. but, when I go on vacation and purposefully book a resort, I expect it to be different and of that quality no matter what spot I rent and I also expect everything in that site to work including the water hooked up to my camper and it to not taste like fish.

We have been taking our trailer to many places , but this one felt like a 5 star hotel for RVs ! 2 dog parks , incredible views , river walking distance , food truck , post office and well equipped office on site, super friendly staff , and what a wonderful RV community! I am in love with the town of Creede, this RV spot , as well as the locals and those who visit !

Booked several riverside/creekside RV parks on our long trip through Colorado. Looked forward to this experience because it looked a bit more upscale and we were curious about ownership opportunities. Unfortunately disappointed in the condition of the RV park- weeds, overgrown grass, broken fences, etc. Can’t even see the river, much less get to it without an unpleasant walk by the sewage area. Lots of manmade ponds and water features which we suspect contribute to a major mosquito problem that left our daughter miserably covered in bites & itchy despite using bug spray. Seems to be a common issue when talking to other campers/owners. Because of this we left early. Otherwise, the dog park was grassy which was nice, clean laundry, ice cream & food truck onsite, and the mountains are gorgeous. I don’t usually leave reviews as campgrounds/RV parks are typically a case of personal preference, but just want to help others know what to actually expect in terms of the river & rv park condition.
