Pleasant Valley
Overview
Overview
Pleasant Valley in Cimarron, Colorado places travelers right along the dramatic terrain of the Western Slope. This destination suits road-trippers navigating U.S. Highway 50 who want a basecamp surrounded by the rugged mesas and high-desert landscapes characteristic of Montrose County. The property offers a straightforward staging ground for exploring the expansive public lands flanking the Uncompahgre Plateau.
Location & Surroundings
Positioned between Montrose and Gunnison, the region features deep canyons, sagebrush flats, and dramatic shifts in elevation. Travelers arriving via U.S. Highway 50 encounter steep grades and sweeping vistas typical of the Rocky Mountain foothills. The local climate brings warm summer days and crisp, cool evenings, with weather shifting rapidly due to the mountain topography and proximity to the Curecanti National Recreation Area.
Amenities & Park Features
Specific on-site facilities remain unverified by public records, so guests should contact management ahead of arrival. When calling to confirm reservations, travelers should inquire about hookup types, current water availability, and maximum rig length limitations. It is also wise to check whether site access roads accommodate large fifth wheels or long motorhomes navigating local gravel driveways.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
The surrounding landscape provides endless outdoor recreation for adventurous visitors. Just a short drive away, the dramatic sheer cliffs of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park offer breathtaking overlooks and challenging hiking trails. Anglers and boaters frequently visit the Blue Mesa Reservoir for water-based activities, while photographers target the alpine scenery around the San Juan Mountains visible to the south.
Who This Park Is Best For
This location appeals primarily to self-contained rig owners, outdoor enthusiasts, and travelers seeking a quieter alternative to crowded commercial campgrounds. Road-trippers traversing southwestern Colorado find the setting convenient for accessing federal lands and regional geological wonders. It fits visitors who prioritize scenic proximity over luxury resort features and extensive entertainment schedules.

Location was nice. Sites were located alongside the Little Cimaron. Limited bathroom facilities and only one shower. No instructions provided as to where they were located and it wasnt obvious. Wont be returninf.

After reading the reviews, good and bad, I think there must be a fundamental misunderstanding by some booking their stay. I have now been to Pleasant Valley for 2 visits while in the area to fish. I could not be more pleased. Is it the Marriott? Absolutely not. I'd argue that it is better. This place is a throwback to customer service that does not seem to exist any longer. We were running a tad late so we called Cydney to update her on an ETA, as well as order burgers to take to the cabin. We lost connection right at the end of ordering food and arrived 45 minutes later. She still had everything ready when we arrived. We ordered our burgers as doubles as we were all starving. They were HUGE, juicy and absolutely delicious. We stayed in the upstairs "cabin" and it did exactly what we needed which was provide a place to hangout for the evening and sleep before hitting the water super early the next morning. The hummingbirds were going nuts outside and provided hours of entertainment. We could not be more pleased with Pleasant Valley and look forward to future visits. Cydney is awesome and easy to work with.

Delightful place off the beaten path! The cabin was basic, but that’s the whole point of a place like this. Everything was functional, nothing leaked. Full kitchen. It was great! A creek runs along the back of the property so you can sit out by the creek, have dinner/happy hour, etc, and watch the sheep graze on the other side of the creek. There is also a restaurant on site with great pie! The restaurant always had guests so I’m thinking their food was as good as their pie. The owners were really friendly and responded immediately to any requests. A great place to stay!
