Not only is ouray a beautiful town but the Amphitheater Campground might be the most beautiful campground I have ever had the absolute privilege of staying at! The camp sites have breath taking views and there are many fun hikes around. If you cant reserve a camp spot try for next year or go before june 1st and if you can get spot 6 its the best in the campground!!!

One of, if not the best camp site we’ve stayed at. Amazing views in all directions, and a good amount of room between sites. Water and vault toilets were close by to our site. The camp hosts were incredible. We can’t wait to come back (if we can nab a reservation)!

This is an amazing campground that is quiet yet so close to downtown Ouray. It overlooks the town from maybe 500 above it in the thick forest with views of the towing amphitheater rock walls that envelope it. Sites are used mostly by tent campers and small teardrop size trailers. Steve, the host is highly knowledgeable, very thoughtful, and fun to talk to. He keeps the pit toilets exceptionally clean! His wife writes the daily weather forecast on a whiteboard for campers. It's obvious they love what they do. It's the best run campground I've been to.

Camp hosts were very nice and have great advice for the area and helped us get a good setup for camp sites. The views from here are incredible, very calm and clean site, potable water and a well bathroom are a huge plus! It can be hard to get in as it's a popular camp site for good reason.

The camp ground its self is amazing. The host may be hitting the bottle too early in the morning to give correct change so watch that. I needed to stay two weeks they said that was fine till they figured out I am out here working. The host Steve doesn't like workers at the camp. Told me I can only stay a week since I was out here working fixing their power line for them. Steve will let others stay as long as they want if they bribe him.
