It’s located slightly away from the center of Ouray, and it feels more like a campground inside a national or state park in the mountains. We slept comfortably, listening to the sound of a stream flowing all night. The Wi-Fi worked well, and although the restrooms are a bit old, the hot water came out fine after a short wait. The campground is very spacious, and there's even an on-site Italian restaurant. Fortunately, the staff were friendly to us.

Jeff is the best manager that we have ever talked to, great and clean campgrounds, and all the bathrooms were spotless!!!!

I would like to say everyone here is wondeful. However, JEFF the manager absolutely RUINED our trip... His demeanor and attitude was truly one of the worst I have ever experienced. He was beyond unorganized. We had called and made arrangements for 18 people at three sites. However, when we go there we noticed the sites were a little to small to accommodate us. So we spoke to the staff the moved us down into sites that worked for us. It was supposed to be for three nights. On the second night big Jeff made us move into spots that wouldn't fit us. Like what the Heck????? He said our spots that we were in were booked even though the staff placed us their. The funny thing was no one showed up there to that spot yet he made 18 people move... We have been coming here for 3 years never had a problem until we met big Jeff. On the second night I apologize to the staff for being a tad loud. Yes, we will take full responsibility for that. But to come over to us AND SCREAM AT US and tell us we needed to go to bed or he was calling the sheriff was insane. There was no prior warning. This man has some SERIOUS anger problems and blames everything on his staff. He takes no responsibility for his actions or the way he acts. Honestly, we have always loved staying at this KOA but we will NEVER RETURN. I will make sure to go out of my way to tell people about our terrible experience there. Jeff work on being more organized, your passive aggressiveness, and your anger. Not cool.

Our deluxe cabin was great - clean, comfortable, and right by the creek. The staff was communicative via text about updates about the campground (shower house, lost & found, etc). The campground is also central between Ridgway & Ouray, which was convenient. We loved our stay!

I must say I couldn’t leave this place fast enough. We arrived and friendly staff at the front desk. Having a camper with no bathroom and a terrible experience with the restrooms/showers here. For one the combo lock on the door is annoying and just dumb. Obviously nobody is sneaking in to use the bathrooms here. Forgetting the code and having to walk back to the camper. The 16 trips or so I made to the restroom/shower EVERY SINGLE time 1 or 2 out of the 3 toilets was occupied with someone taking a dump, no matter what the time was. The ventilation system is absolutely trash and the smell is 10 times worse than going into a porta potty! Bathrooms were rather disgusting with poo splattered toilets and trash on floors. Awkward inward swing doors in the shower with no shelves but has 2 hooks. 2 showers in the women’s and 1 toilet out of service which is unacceptable for the price they charge to stay at this place. Zero sleep past 7am and I’m a heavy sleeper, lots of banging and loud noises. People driving excessively fast down the lane in and out of the park. And ignorant people letting their dogs bark!!!! Nobody says anything to them. Loud road traffic behind the place. I’d give the place a 4 star if they correct the bathroom ordeals and ventilation fan! Hang a sign up in each stall for the boomers that sit there 30 minutes with a log in the bowl, the entire locker room doesn’t want to smell your sh**. Learn what a courtesy flush is!!!!! And sadly I suggest installing speed bumps to slow people down and help quiet the place in the early hours

Awesome place to stay. I stayed here in my converted van a few nights. I really appreciate the clean bathrooms, clean grounds, peaceful little creek running through the property, LAUNDRY, nice people and yummy food. They even have jeeps to rent there which I will be doing soon!!

The cabins are a lot smaller than advertised, shared bathroom is quite a distance walking through snow. It's not a problem if you're told ahead of time and prepared, which we were not. Had to cover many large cracks to keep from freezing. They had a very small space heater which did very little with the wind blasting through the place. I'm glad we were prepared with multiple blankets. Wanted a quiet retreat and ended up being next to the bar. We left as soon as the sun came up and will not be back

Beautiful atmosphere. Friendly staff. Great amenities. A hidden gem on the 550 if going into the town of Ouray. You cannot even see the campground from the road but there is easy access to it and the neighboring towns. It is a fabulous location.

We just needed to use facilities on the way through. The showers here are so clean, water is piping hot and pressure is great. One of the cleanest bathroom setups we have had in awhile. The camphost was so friendly. Don't forget to say hello to Hermes, the camp cat! Such a sweetie and might follow you into the bathroom to warm up on the off season. 😇

Only checked in yesterday but so far so good. That's why I only gave it 4 stars. Beautiful surroundings, and very pleasant and helpful staff.
